DeVuego LATAM ES_COR

While I enjoyed the cartoony corporate satire at the heart of this game, I just couldn’t connect with its complex platforming mechanics and over-elaborate level design. However, fans of Jump King-style precision platformers should perhaps give this a go (at time of writing, the demo is still live). Alas, I won’t be making any more zero-hour contract deliveries in Hell.

Hellclock is an excellent refresh button on an oversaturated genre. The emphasis on speedy runs, diverse builds, and a historical and cultural setting rarely touched makes for a standout roguelike. A few snags, especially tanky health bars, weigh down the game design�s core focus of lightning-fast runs. Although pacing creates more friction than a totally smooth experience, Hellclock is an easy recommendation for any roguelike fan.

A Dream About Parking Lots isn’t the most gameplay-heavy experience, but that’s only because it doesn’t need to be. Its story doesn’t need to be bogged down by intricate systems to learn, as that would take focus away from the true star of the game, its narrative. Feeling lost is a sensation that can be hard to put into words, but Interactive Dreams have found a way to bring this emotion to life in a way I’ve seldom seen in games. It’s an experience I can definitely recommend, even if it’ll take me a while to completely make sense of it all, if that’ll even happen. Sometimes it’s best to have experienced rather than to have understood.
