The difficulty of Fire Emblem Engage does not always lie in the challenge of advancing mission after mission, but in doing so with as few casualties as possible, with the right team and a team strategy that involves knowing each of the units in detail. It sounds more complicated than...
In addition to the character designs, animations and environment, the game has a fantastic soundtrack, and has the impeccable work of the original voice actors from the TV series to keep the jokes coming and make us smile with every situation we share with these characters that have been with...
But, despite the clear positives and places where Children of Silentown excels, I can't ignore the moments that make me want to bang my head against a wall. The narrative and dialogue is well written, the town strikingly drawn, the plot deep and unsettling, there are just too many moments...
Sports Story isn't bad, but it so quickly makes the typical mistake of piling too much on top of a foundation that can't really hold up anymore. More sports and content types give more flexibility and versatility, yes, but it also makes the game distract itself, and you, all the...
Blacktail is a charming acquaintance, with the story in particular being cool to experience, but there are some criticisms that could be improved for next time if Blacktail gets a sequel.

Wavetale is a bit of a mixed bag. The technical part is a mess and we hope Thunderful will get the technical part of the game optimized very soon, because there is quite a nice little adventure game hiding behind the technical problems - even if none of them directly...
The above is far from enough to dampen my enthusiasm for Rose Engine's debut title, however. With its superior presentation, robust gameplay and ambiguous, emotional and multi-layered narrative, SIGNALIS is one of the greatest gaming experiences I've had the pleasure of this year. It was the presentation that attracted my...
Ahead of Hello Neighbor 2, the developers have been talking up advanced AI, an open world, clearer goal-setting and an exciting story that will delve deeper into Mr. Peterson's character and motivations. All we got was a developer who once again showcased their inability to implement ideas; they also made...
