I was unsure going into Dragon Quest VII Reimagined whether the game would meet my expectations and if I would cherish it as much as many players have for years. Ultimately, I have loved my time with this reimagined classic.
I Hate this Place
I Hate This Place tells a new story set in the confines of this richly detailed world. As Elena, you'll battle monstrosities and horrors as you attempt to find your missing friend, Lou, after a ritual goes horribly horribly wrong. To be fair, have rituals in horror stories ever gone right? Yeah, didn't think so.

I am Future: Cozy Apocalypse Survival
From The Ashes Expansion - Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora
Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora was a solid entry into bringing the films to life with an original story. Now, From the Ashes continues a key moment in the film franchise with the introduction of the Ash Clan. So’lek takes on both RDA forces and the Ash Clan in an action-packed standalone adventure that, while familiar, is wonderfully done.
The Legend of Heroes: Trails Beyond the Horizon
Trails Beyond the Horizon is the 3rd entry into the Van Arkride saga, acting as the penultimate entry into the Legend of Heroes story. As a planned mission to space is on the horizon, Van, Rean, and Kevin Graham all take their respective allies to places all over the Calvard Republic to understand the truth behind this mission.

Terrifier: The ARTcade Game
Metroid Prime 4: Beyond
Pokémon Legends ZA
Pokémon Legends ZA is a sequel to Pokémon X and Y, and the follow-up in the Legends series to Arceus. While it features a fantastic combat system, it lacks in almost every other area. With a boring city to explore, and buildings that are nothing but a series of repeated Jpegs, Legends ZA is simply not worth it.

Marvel: Cosmic Invasion
Sonic Racing: Crossworlds
Crossworlds highlights the Sonic series more so than just being a catch-all mascot racer for the whole publishing line, and highlights the creativity of the world around its notable platformer, with a solid racer that, while its gimmick isn’t terribly impressive, the customization and gameplay around its racing is nonetheless engaging.
Monster Hunter Stories: Remastered
While this remaster could have rebuilt some environments to feel like dated, there is still a charming approach to preserving the 3DS visuals, even if it usually conflicts with what I prefer for a remaster of an older game. Still, Monster Hunter Stories is a vivid and colorful world to explore, and the addition of voice acting, really provides the game with an added boost of personality
Monster Hunter Stories 2: Wings of Ruin
Despite a somewhat inconsistent story in its execution, Monster Hunter Stories 2 is an engaging adventure with a ton of Monsties to tame, adventures to be had, and a combat system that is just as thrilling as its real-time sibling. Stories is certainly a beast of its own with a fun cast of characters and its own take on the Monster Hunter formula.
