Latest: Shift at Midnight

STWGames ItaliaAug 30, 2026Score 80

“Shift At Midnight turns out to be a delightful surprise, full of personality, capable of taking the anxieties of working with the public and transforming them into a fascinating nightmare. The idea of blending the routine of a management sim with a detective investigation works wonders, creating an anxiety-inducing gameplay loop that reaches its peak in the excellent environmental storytelling. It’s a real shame that the game stumbles just when it decides to flex its muscles, offering shooter sequences and stealth mechanics that don’t measure up to the rest of the game. However, setting aside a clunky combat system and an infinite mode that’s still a work in progress, the nocturnal odyssey crafted by the developers is absolutely worth experiencing, especially when played in co-op. A little gem where the real fear isn’t dying, but receiving a one-star review from a shapeshifter.”

Latest: Database Detective: Minor Crimes Division

So Many GamesAug 30, 2026Score 70

“Database Detective: Minor Crime Division is a Schrödinger’s Cat of educational content – on one hand it teaches concepts easily and practically, on the other hand it puts fun front and centre – it’s only when you open the box that you’ll find out if it’s useful for you. Either way, an entertaining, comical story wrapped in the interest of learning something new cannot be ignored – sadly, the game does lose half a star due to a current lack of accessibility options.”

Latest: TV Archive: Tidy Up Together

MKAU GamingAug 29, 2026Score 75

“TV Archive: Tidy Up Together knows exactly what it wants to be. It isn’t trying to reinvent the simulation genre. There isn’t a huge narrative hiding beneath the shelves, nor is there some elaborate endgame waiting for you once you’ve sorted the final tape. The satisfaction comes from watching the archive gradually take shape. A chaotic floor becomes an organised collection. An empty shelf fills up. A section that initially looks overwhelming eventually becomes perfectly tidy.”

“Star Wars Zero Company blends XCOM's tactical depth with Respawn's cinematic flair, delivering memorable characters and aggressive, distinctive combat — one of the best Star Wars games in years, held back only by limited enemy variety.”

Latest: Nightmare Shift

MKAU GamingAug 29, 2026Score 80

“Nightmare Shift delivers an unsettling psychological horror experience through its mysterious story, excellent art style and atmospheric sound design. While the awkward controller navigation and emotionless voice acting occasionally pulled me away from the experience, they were not enough to ruin what the game did well. Overall, I genuinely enjoyed my time working the night shift and would recommend it to anyone who loves a slow-burning psychological horror.”

Netto’s Game RoomAug 28, 2026Score 80

“Gold Gold Adventure Gold is an ambitious project with a lot of charm, a beautiful art style, delightful music, and an addictive gameplay loop. It is not perfect and still needs work to reach its full potential, but even so, the game provides a relaxing atmosphere that you can easily lose hours to.”

Latest: Captain Tsubasa 2: World Fighters

“Captain Tsubasa 2: World Fighters is a love letter and a compelling arcade sports game for fans of the well-known series. It expands on its predecessor in meaningful ways, such as a much larger roster and deeper systems. The goalkeeper tactical battles and chain system give matches a satisfying pace, while super moves and miracle moments deliver the dramatic highs the series is known for.”

“Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy takes bold risks by shifting from stealth to melee combat, and while the ancient civilization storyline pays off, Sophia's underdeveloped arc and repetitive combat keep this prequel from matching the heights of Innocence and Requiem.”

“Overall, I liked Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy. I think it adds a valuable chapter to the overall mythos of the series, and manages to carve out its own identity in several places without continuing to rely on fan-favorite Amicia or the terror of contending with waves of rats.”

“While Legacy of the Bloodmoon doesn't change Vampire Survivors' formula, it doesn't have to. Even with new characters, you'll still be filling the screen with indiscernible pixels as you stand still and try to watch enemies get obliterated underneath the 8-bit acid trip.”

Worth PlayingAug 28, 2026Score 85

“Elden Ring: Tarnished Edition is arguably the weakest version of an incredible game, but the compromises aren't enough to undermine the experience. It's difficult to think of another Switch 2 game that matches its scale and sheer amount of content. If you enjoy Souls-style games and haven't yet played Elden Ring, you owe it to yourself to try it. As long as you can accept the technical compromises, Tarnished Edition is an excellent way to experience the game for the first time.”

Though the pacing of matches in the story mode can be a little bit bumpy, the narrative itself, in addition to the satisfying gameplay and solid visuals, makes this an accessible and highly enjoyable sports title – even if you’ve never interacted with the source material.”

“Mortal Shell II is an excellent soulslike that delivers simple yet brutal gameplay, featuring unique shells that alter playstyles and a dark open world with stunning landscapes. However, there is a lack of variety in melee and ranged weapons; furthermore, the fact that mini-bosses also appear as common enemies slightly detracts from the experience.”

“NBA 2K27 improves where it matters most, delivering smoother gameplay, better defence, more responsive movement, and an impressive overall presentation. MyCAREER Eras adds something genuinely fresh to the experience, while MyNBA and MyTEAM provide plenty of reasons to keep playing. Familiar frustrations surrounding VC, microtransactions, and The City remain, but the excellent on-court action makes NBA 2K27 one of the strongest entries in the series in recent years.”
