Estimated Completion Time: 10+ Hours

Developers: Team Recharge

Playstation Store Links: PS4, PS5

One achievement list available on Xbox. Trophy stack available on PlayStation with the PS4 and PS5 versions.

Ricky Recharge is a run-and-gun shooter set in a robot apocalypse, where you play as Ricky, who wakes up alone and must survive as long as possible. Like many classic arcade games, the main objective is to achieve the highest score.

The gameplay is straightforward but comes with a learning curve. While I wasn’t a huge fan of this title, I can see players getting hooked on the “just one more run” feeling as they strive to improve their performance. You navigate levels by running from left to right, switching polarity to match enemy types while zapping, scanning, dodging, and charging blasts at foes. Recharge stations are available on each side of the map, but they deplete over time, requiring you to run back and forth frequently. You can also open a door on the right side of the map to purchase upgrades for Ricky.

One of the more frustrating elements of the game is the need to break open doors every time you advance to a new screen. Often, a hidden robot lies in wait, ready to hit you before you even see it. You start with three lives and can buy an extra life if it appears. Once you lose all three lives, it's game over, and you'll get to see how you rank on the leaderboard. If others in your household join in, you can also keep track of scores on a local leaderboard.

While the achievements are relatively straightforward, focusing on defeating robots and using various abilities and power-ups, some will require skill. One notable achievement involves playing for a total of 10 hours, which extends the completion time. Overall, Ricky Recharge is a game you can easily pick up and play for as long or as little as you like.

Cat in Rain offers a very quick completion, though it's not a standout platformer. If you're playing this one, it's likely for the Gamerscore. While the game features a cat, ironically, rain is notably absent.

There are 50 levels, and you earn an achievement for every five levels completed. However, some levels can be frustratingly difficult, with tricky jumps and areas where you might get stuck without a way to reset.

To navigate this, you can choose to play on either Easy or Hardcore mode. For the fastest completion, play on Hardcore: get your cat killed, stand on spikes, and after dying three times, you'll have the option to skip the level. After skipping, switch to Easy mode to complete every five levels and achieve full completion quickly"”hopefully without too much frustration!
