Pentiment demonstrates all the ability of Obsidian Entertainment to develop excellent games in genres that are currently little explored and of Xbox Game Studios in offering these games to new platforms.

Inkulinati stands out with a wacky setting and tone for a game that executes the turn-based strategy style very well, even stumbling over confusing controls and an uninspired interface.

New Star GP is an entertaining title that bets on simplicity, but still innovates with its retro aesthetic and some additional choices that offer depth and the feeling of accessibility in the control of the vehicle on challenging tracks. The game allows current players to experience the past, embracing simplicity and the spirit of overcoming as drivers.

Akka Arrh is a near-sensory psychedelic experience, offering challenging, non-stop action that appropriates precise but hard-to-master mechanics. There's a purposefully confusing look, with touches of modernity supporting an idea misunderstood decades ago.

Top Racer Collection is a great way to reminisce about the past. In addition to bringing the trilogy, the collection also adds online, extra modes, and even a modified game. However, it's an expensive bundle on PlayStation, and personally, it's a collection that basically sustains itself through the first title.

Vanillaware gets it right with Unicorn Overlord and reinvigorates a sub-genre of RPG that, for a long time, has been the target of huge scrutiny in the gaming industry. I strongly believe that it is also the best game ever created by the Japanese developer. Even though there are minor imperfections, the game is brilliant and worthy of the highest recommendation!

Cats and the Other Lives is an excellent pixel art game that stands out for its engaging narrative and a feline protagonist full of personality. The Mason's family dynamic guides players through mysteries, drama, and a past that remains the common thread of the story.

REVEIL features a rich, evocative and vintage art direction, with detailed and well-done sets. Unfortunately, everything else is tied up in an average package that struggles to stand out from the myriad of games in the same subgenre.

The Mobius Machine is, at its core, a decent metroidvania hampered by the disproportion between the enormous size of its map and the low variety of scenarios, discoveries, rewards, and even resources that help revisit the world more efficiently. Those who like challenges will have something to find here, but for the rest, the real challenge will be to maintain interest and patience.

Mediterranea Inferno challenges the narrative, social and emotional conventions of what we have already seen in visual novels, and gets it right by problematizing conveniences in an unabashed and incisive way, without shame in saying, showing or poking at themes that are still so sensitive in a world that prefers to ignore its own scars.

WWE 2K24 is better than its predecessor, bringing new types of fights, adjustments to game modes and new features that enrich the gameplay of the series, as well as a Showcase that sets a very high standard of quality to be followed by future games in the series.

Without any big news or any innovations, Hiveswap Friendsim has in the well-written text and in unexpected situations its greatest strength. Visually unstable and mechanically simple, it's a recommendation for fans of the genre who don't expect to get involved with a great story, but rather with the misadventures of a friend-making aficionado.

Pesterquest is a direct sequel, in terms of theme, story, and mechanics, to the previous game. Without any substantial improvement, what is left is the same sharp text, but one that doesn't dare beyond what we've seen before in the franchise. Even with some visual improvements, it's nothing more than a "more-of-the-same".

Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons Remake retells the exciting story of the brothers, keeping the basic concepts of the original game, but improving its graphics and sound in a considerable way. However, technical problems go against these improvements, and some fixes are needed so that the game can reach its full potential.

PowerWash Simulator: Warhammer 40,000 Special Pack brings five new vehicles to the ever-growing list of services present in the game. Those who enjoy the base game find a few more hours to relax here, but it's not a bundle of services that will convince reluctant players to give the game a try.

FOAMSTARS is a game of two extremes where not all the foam and style in the world can hide the lack of substance. It shows signs of variety and depth, but it sins by being shallow. Its short matches entertain but don't hold you in the long run and the repetitiveness in its PvE mode tires before the player sees the best it has to offer.

With its well-executed retro personality, Sydney Hunter and the Curse of the Mayan is a 2D platforming adventure with plenty of challenges and items to find. The protagonist could be a little more agile, but in general, the game fulfills its role of revisiting styles of the past and improving them.

Ufouria: The Saga 2 stands out against a backdrop of reheated content because it is not limited to a simple emulation of what was already established. By daring in form, aesthetics and content, the game stands out for its simplicity, charisma, and especially for not using nostalgia as a crutch.

Smalland stands out for presenting a setting in a rich and diverse universe, being excellent for creation and survival games. Greater touches and refinements can further improve the experience over time, but it's perhaps a game that's better suited for those who aren't looking for a very robust combat system.

Balatro is a true phenomenon. Simple in its execution, but giant in its complexity.
