The progression of the chapters is perfect, the world is unique, and it gives you the feeling of depth even though it's a platform, an extremely rare thing to achieve in games like this, a key piece that makes it so remarkable and exceptional. Despite the plot's open questions, you don't need to understand it completely to know that this game is amazing and unique in everything it does, and that definitely worth helping that boy fleeing this polluted, dark, and agonizing industry.

Sludge Life - 8.2/10 - {recommend} The game is [Fun, Humorous, Curious, Artistic, Unique] This game will entertain you, because it has a unique atmosphere and a great art direction, outside of which it encourages you the exploration to complete the game and do all the graffiti, although the world in general is small, but in the right measure for what the game proposes, it has several collectibles, Easter eggs, and it's fun in all aspects. Because it is a more "indie" indie game, it does its job well, and because it is more of a fun game, and for you to finish it in some hours, it doesn’t focus on history, being a free play not so hard to reset. => VERDICT: The verdict is that if you are looking for a more relaxed game, it gives you more freedom to do what you want, without arresting you to a story, and it's short and fun, you better play it and become the greatest graffiti artist that that polluted city has ever seen. GHOST

Cytus II - 9.8 / 10 {highly recommend} Simply the best mobile game I had the opportunity to play. It literally raises the bar, and shows how deep a game of music can be. Each exclusive song is great, the gameplay is unique and challenging, it's very addictive. But the highlight of Cytus, besides clear of art, is its complex, deep, immersive and thought-provoking story. Each character has his story, his own style of music, and you develop empathy for each of them, and in addition their stories connect with time. This game is so unique and complete that it is almost perfect. I can't give a 10 because Rayark is literally a mafia, they make amazing games, but they fill them with paid things that don't are cheap, and this is very present in Cytus II, even if you pay for the base game, there are still a lot of paid characters and music packs, including the Capso system, and that’s just annoying, and I consider it disrespectful to the gaming community. Meantime, even if you only have the base game, you will play a LOT, and it will take at least 50 hours to complete. I also missed of more videos over the course of history, which ends up being 95% or more script and reading, and the small percentage remaining of videos. Despite these problems, your experience with the base game will not be affected, so I can't lower the grade, and really, this masterpiece deserves a very high note, because it is almost a perfect game.

Good Pizza, Great Pizza - 8.4 / 10 {recommend} Beautiful game with its own art style, smooth and practical gameplay for mobile, and very captivating. You learn from the passing of time how to deal with each customer, and each type of order. You use money intelligently, and invest in the kitchen, or in decoration, the one that is quite varied. At the end of the day, it's great for hanging out, and fun to play. The only thing I don't agree with is the fact that the furniture / decoration items do not affect anything, not even the patience of customers, which makes their purchase unusable until you improve everything to the maximum. In addition, customers are one-dimensional, they don’t sit and eat in the restaurant, they don’t interact with nothing, just appear, make the request, and disappear, and so on and on, and eventually it gets tired.

Dandara + Trials Of Fear Edition - 9.7 / 10 {really recommend it} One of the most captivating games I've known. The story is very deep, each artist is memorable, including mainly Dandara, the main character that captivates you a lot. The game is very challenging, and will make you have a rage of punching the wall sometimes, but even so, you can't stop wanting to reset it, because the dynamics of salt upgrades, the fluid gameplay, the differentiated and practical movement, the multiple attacks available, the giant map for a 2D game (with different regions, and new dangers to face) the perfect soundtrack, everything makes this game a complete masterpiece, even if you play on mobile, or on PC, or on a console. In addition, the DLC is really good. The game literally verges on perfection, but it’s not perfect, because there’s a area on the map that’s so confusing that you waste time on it more than necessary. Besides that, the game is a unique 2D dark souls experience, with a perfect atmosphere, and tense / enigmatic in some moments of history, while in others, fear prevails, yes, the game plays with your emotions throughout it. In the cradle of creation, your journey begins. Remember, your actions will not be forgotten.

Valiant Hearts - {highly recommend} The story of the game is incredibly captivating and engaging, the soundtrack is great, the setting and art are perfect for the context, and it's not too long or too short. The characters are memorable, everything is very good. Some puzzles are well random and difficult just because you don't know what to do, but that's the only flaw in this masterpiece. Worth it, even though it's 2021. If you have a weak PC, don't think twice and give this beautiful game a try.

Wii Sports Resort - 9.5 / 10 {highly recommend} It has a diversity of options for you to have fun alone, with friends or family, in co-op or competitive, being the most memorable game on the Nintendo Wii, each sport has its particularity and differentiation in gameplay, but there are some sports that clearly stand out over others and you’ll play more. Besides everything, the plane to explore the island is great. Overall, it's almost perfect.

Wii Sports - 8/10 {recommend} It worked perfectly with the Wii controllers, and had smooth and fun gameplay in every game, being very striking, and making you spend hours on end with friends and family playing. It's just not perfect because has few sports options, and ends up becoming a much simpler version of the Wii Sports Resort.

Mario Party 9 - 8/10 {recommend} It's a great game to play with family and friends, it's pretty chaotic in general, but it's good, it's not bad as others say. The issue of everyone in the same car is different and brings a differentiate for the game, but I don't consider it a disadvantage. Overall, it is worth it.

Super Mario Galaxy - 10/10 {really recommend it} Simply one of the most amazing 3D platform games created, with unique dynamics, and that marks the player, I used to play when I was a child and I intend to replay one day.

Need for Speed ​​Rivals - 7/10 {do not recommend} This game tries to frame for the first time the two sides of the coin, runners and police, and you can choose to be 1 of them, or move between the 2. In that, the game is good and brings an innovative idea, out that his interface is very beautiful and characterized, but the map in general is small, and the challenges sometimes are very difficult to do, because of the limited map itself. Overall it’s a regular game, but due to so many options available today in racing games, this becomes an expendable piece.

Brain / Out - 6/10 {unfortunately, I don't recommend it anymore} The game itself is great and very addictive, especially for the community of players with weak PCs, who it would be the focus of the developers. It has several options for weapons, skins and maps. Unfortunately, the game lost its glory days, the number of players dropped a lot, the instability of the servers increased, which caused lags constantly. In addition, the frequent gaming community is not good, and is made up by players who are so good, they won't let you play, and even if you had a level considered high, they made a point of humiliating you, and that made new players give up the game, so the number of players dropped. I ended up giving up after many hours invested not by the community toxic, but because of the lack of players and the lags.

Forza Horizon - 9.5 / 10 {highly recommend} The game that revolutionized the genre, and brought this different theme of open world with racing, with no need to run from the police, you could run, take breaks with other runners, admire the landscapes, in a place where everyone was runners like you, a unique experience, with perfect music, perfect, and challenging design. It’s just not perfect for some physics issues in racing, but it does not affect the good experience that you will have playing.

Streets Of Rage 4 - 7.5 / 10 - {recommend} The game is [good and beautiful, but that's it] Great fighting dynamics, and perfect art direction in every way. However, the game is limited, the modes that you release after the story are not good enough to hold the player in the game, the story makes no sense and conflicts with itself. The design of enemies and characters is very good, but there are some unbalanced enemies that you cannot beat in normal mode without losing a life, which depends on the character you use, as there are some much more appealing than others, which makes the use of some of them useless, except for the design. In the end, the game shoots itself in the foot.

Saints Row IV - 8.5 / 10 {highly recommend} Just a crazy game in every way that makes you laugh and have fun all the time, being an open world like GTA, but with Earth being invaded by aliens, and you have varied powers that can improve. It is a unique experience that you cannot miss, and you can be sure that you will laugh a lot.

Lifeless Planet - 5.5 / 10 - {do not recommend} The game is [OK, but not worth it]. This game has a very intriguing story and it encourages the player to want to end the game, not to mention that the planet’s environment is very good, however, the game’s graphics could be better. Outside that the game is unbalanced throughout history, because there are extremely easy parts of parkour, and there are parts with very difficult challenges, it’s not always clear with the path, which makes the player take longer to finish the game, and he ends up winding up more than necessary to finish, and in the end it doesn't justify 100% of the player's effort, because almost nothing is explained, and you find yourself in a shallow end with a sea of doubts.

Rocket League - 9/10 {highly recommended} It is simply a football game with cars, which despite being simple, can be very complex to master. The game is extremely addictive, and fun, you play hours, hours, and more hours without getting tired, and when you close the game because of anger, it doesn't take long for you to want to go back and redeem yourself. The customization of the car is incredible, the differentiated are great, and the community is not 100% bad, you will find great players. But the game is not perfect, you rarely get good items for your car for free, you only get item designs, that you have to pay to build, and that’s kind of boring. You are dependent on missions for a chance to get some good item, and fails, and this is often frustrating. Another irritating factor is the tournaments that, in themselves, are good, but they happen only once a day, and if you miss the time, it is only after 24 hours that you can enter again. You wait 1 day to enter the 3 x 3 tournament, and there is a guy in your team who is inactive, he is sent off and replaced by someone to balance the game? NO, you will lose because of him. Waiting 24 hours to be put in a game with an inactive guy who will make you lose in the first round. Those are the points that irritate me in the game, but most of all, I recommend you to play.

Gorogoa - 7.8 / 10 - {recommend} The game is [Good, but it doesn't get there]. Gorogoa is a great puzzle game, and it has a unique style, but it has a confusing story, and it has scenes so difficult / unlikely to call that you just keep trying like crazy to get through, after all you is not so rewarded for his career. The game itself is good, but not that good, because the only thing that makes this a unique game are the puzzles.

Tacoma - 7.5 / 10 - {recommend} The game is [good, but limited]. The story is great, and the ambiance of the ship in space too, but the game is very limited, making you read several texts, and have to keep an eye on the scenes just to see when the characters will open the screen for you to read more texts to discover the events that caused the accident and where everyone is, and at the end of everything is not really worth it, because it's a normal ending, without a tremendous shock on the viewer, in this game you he watches more than anything, except he's short. What saves is the beautiful environment created on the space station, and makes you want to explore everything.

Brawlhalla - 6.5/10 {recommend, but...} Good Smash game for PC, which is beautiful in general and has good gameplay, but has a toxic community. The biggest problem for me, though, is that everything gets paid, which forces the player to spend money if he wants any skin or existing cosmetic item. The coins you earn only serve to free other characters, who should be free but they are not, that is, this game is extremely greedy and tries to empty your pocket. I recommend it because the game itself is good, but the monetary system is trash.

Aer Memories of Old - {do not recommend} The game is [Bad, that's all]. The only good thing about the game is the landscapes and the feeling of freedom, the story is normal but there is a lot to be done as a complete game, apart from that it is very short, and if you can't win achievements (EPIC Games case), take it out the sense of exploration on the game, making you only explore to complete the map, which is small, except that the objectives are not clear, which only hinders progress, the game also has optimization problems in some sections and the movement is not best. Look for something better and don't waste your time.

Planet Alpha - 7/10 - {recommend, but not so much} The game is [good, but repetitive]. The game's ambiance is good and has several areas, but it is a relatively repetitive game with the levels (in actions), the graphics of the scenarios could be better, besides that there are sections that you die 100 times to figure out how to get through, with the over time it gets boring, and the story doesn't help, I just finished it myself because I had already done it more than half, but I didn't really feel like finishing. At the end of the day, it's a nice game, but there's a lot better out there, so think twice before you start.
