Nostalgia is the fuel that powers Top Racer Collection, and in that regard, it succeeds at providing a lot for your retro buck if you’re looking to take a trip down memory lane and enjoy the best that there was in 16-bit wheel to wheel racing.

Saviorless will definitely appeal to those who can look beyond the simpleness of gameplay in order to see what lies within its beating heart.

If this is a slice of what’s to come out of Cuba’s gaming scene, I can’t wait for the rest of the cake!

All in all, Mark of the Deep is mixed. The idea of having elements from a variety of genres sounds good on paper, but if the execution isn’t fully there, it makes for a game that is bound to sink instead of swimming. And that’s the case for this one as it is at launch. With some much needed TLC, Mark of the Deep might make it to shore unscathed, but it’s a shame it’s at this point to begin with, considering the studio’s previous experience in successfully designing enjoyable alternatives to established gameplay styles.

A party-based Souls-like is an inventive idea, but Deathbound can’t meet its lofty ambitions.

The Looney Tunes gang are back and ready to tackle a Wacky World of Sports in a forgettable combo of games better played elsewhere.

Clash: Artifacts of Chaos has a dazzlingly beautiful art style, but struggles to make the moment to moment gameplay feel fun.

A weird combination of gameplay elements makes Frogue a very unique and enjoyable game.
