“Is this collection worth it? The first game is still fun, but the sequel remains a bad game with little reason to revisit. '20 for two basic ports with minimal improvements is too much.”

“Montezuma's Revenge ' The 40th Anniversary Edition offers nostalgic fun with updated graphics and new levels, but repetitive gameplay, softlocks, and a lack of modern QoL features hold it back. Still, its classic charm provides enjoyment for longtime fans.”

“Gloomy Eyes is a visually striking and atmospheric game featuring two cooperating characters and clever puzzles. Its story of outsiders finding their place in the world is charming and emotionally engaging, enhanced by Tim Burton'inspired design and music. However, technical issues and frequent bugs disrupt the experience, especially given the game's short length.”

“After two years, Football Manager 26 doesn't quite justify the wait. Tech upgrades help, but the clunky new interface and technical issues hold it back. The core remains deep and addictive, yet the overall experience feels rougher'even if I still ended up investing plenty of hours.”

“NASCAR 25 is a solid debut from iRacing, with enjoyable driving and extensive setup options. Career mode feels thin, and the game lacks content like split-screen, more single-player modes, and expanded online multiplayer. Technical issues hold it back, but the core racing experience remains satisfying.”

“Turbo Kid is a fun and content-rich Metroidvania with quirky characters and BMX action. It's held back by minor pacing and gameplay issues, but still delivers an enjoyable experience.”

“Fast & Furious: Arcade Edition delivers fast, explosive racing that recalls Split/Second and Burnout, offering short bursts of fun'especially in local split-screen. However, its limited content and weak adaptation from arcade to PC and consoles make the experience fade quickly.”

“Hotel Barcelona is an entertaining but uneven experience. Its chaotic, unpolished, and occasionally frustrating nature will appeal to fans of Swery and Suda, though it doesn't fully deliver on expectations. The gameplay is serviceable but too ordinary, and the visuals feel bland. The story is enjoyable, some concepts work, and there's replayability, but it's hard not to feel disappointed it didn't come together better.”

“A massive, unique, and addictive collection with some grind and backtracking, but still worth returning to.”

“NHL 26 pushes authenticity forward with ICE-Q 2.0 and NHL EDGE data, offering more realistic player differentiation and broadcast-style presentation. While core modes like Be A Pro and HUT see meaningful refinements, the series still feels evolutionary rather than revolutionary.”

“Pok'mon Friends features some catchy minigames, but its minimal presentation and lack of lasting appeal make it easy to forget.”

“Puyo Puyo Tetris 2S remains a fun and addictive fusion of two iconic puzzle games, offering the same solid gameplay as the original and even the first entry from years ago. Most of the new additions could have been delivered as a free update, making this version hard to recommend to returning players.”

“There are shortcomings. Some date back as far as 30 years. Nevertheless, I believe this is a collection that should not be missing from the library of any fan of the genre. Many people got it for free from the library anyway. Two once-popular fantasy action games have been revived in a modernised version with a huge amount of content, lots of improvements, and new features that make them even better games.”

“Misc. A Tiny Tale is a charming, short 3D platformer clearly inspired by Chibi-Robo'to the point where it often feels like a fan-made tribute or low-budget clone. That said, it's a wholesome experience with a good heart, cheerful atmosphere, and likable robotic characters. Unfortunately, the game never truly excels'its platforming feels imprecise, combat is dull, and the visuals reflect its limited budget. It's cute, but hard to shake the feeling you're playing a "Chibi-Robo from Wish."”

“Fast Fusion is an excellent arcade racer that could have been one of the best Switch 2 launch titles. Its fast, addictive gameplay deserves hundreds of hours, but the lack of online multiplayer holds it back. The '15 price helps, though many would gladly pay more for a full online experience.”

“Some of you may spend more time reading this short review than playing the game itself. That's actually its biggest problem. Paying for a 30-minute experience, even at an extremely low price, leaves a strange aftertaste. You're still not sure if it was worth it.”

“Too often, I found myself quitting out of frustration, forced to replay sections from the last checkpoint because of bugs. These weren't minor annoyances'they significantly impacted the experience. With proper polish, this could have been rated much higher. If the developers eventually patch the game, it's absolutely worth your time. Until then, I suggest adding it to your wishlist and waiting.”

“FragPunk is a fun and promising tactical hero shooter with unique card mechanics that refresh gameplay each round. However, it still suffers from balance issues, confusing virtual currencies, and low server tickrate that impacts the overall experience.”

“It's a shame there's no real online multiplayer in this version, and the single-player content is repetitive. It plays well, it's fun, but at the moment I see no reason to stick with the game beyond the first few hours.”

“Lost Records: Bloom & Rage is a quality adventure game that, as a follow-up to the cult classic Life is Strange, perhaps suffers a little from over-expectation.”
