Metro GameCentral's Reviews

5 / 10 - Thrasher
Jul 31, 2024

A pulsing, neon-infused techno-trip of a game that combines Fruit Ninja style slashing with the sparkly visuals of Tetris Effect, but whose unsatisfyingly variable difficulty suggests it may have needed more time in development.

It's the same old EDF in terms of graphics, gameplay, and the swarm of (mostly intentional) bugs but online co-op and a mountain of content means it still holds a special charm.

A bizarre, absurdist comedy only occasionally masquerading as a video game, but the lack of interactivity doesn't make it any less entertaining.

Puzzle game meets narrative adventure in this funny, beautifully written, indie game whose unusual grid-sliding mechanic is elevated by its characters and story.

A cosy 2D Metroidvania featuring witches and cookery, that looks delightful but suffers from numerous irritations in its interface and level design.

A tribute to the timelessness of some of Nintendo's earliest classics and while the whole package is rather thin it's impressive how entertaining it still manages to be.

A fantastically polished Metroidvania, with some of the best 16-bit style graphics ever seen and impressively deep combat and role-playing elements.

7 / 10 - SCHiM
Jul 16, 2024

A mellow and deeply unusual adventure where you play a man's shadow adrift in a Dutch city, in a game that defies convention and is all the better for it.

Fascinatingly strange in all the best ways but while the action is solid the strategy aspects are undercooked and the disparate gameplay elements never gel the way they should.

Jul 10, 2024

A depressingly generic free-to-play looter shooter that steals shamelessly from other, better, games but never has the nerve to try and create anything of its own.

3 / 10 - Neosprint
Jun 27, 2024

A single-player and couch co-op sequel to one of the world's oldest racing franchises, whose rudimentary looks and driving model can't compete with 21st century alternatives.

A mere remaster can't hide all the foibles of a 20-year-old game, but this is a well-crafted tribute to a classic PlayStation 2 era game, that has long deserved a proper sequel.

The best Monkey Ball game in over a decade is not much of a compliment, as while the adventure mode is almost up to par with the originals the multiplayer most certainly is not.

A fantastically inventive and charming adventure makes a successful leap from portable to home console, but the high asking price will make it a hard sell for many.

7 / 10 - Dicefolk
Jun 24, 2024

A polished and highly competent roguelike deck builder with some neat twists, that can sometimes feel a touch too random for its own good.

A reincarnation of the 2021 Japanese role-player, that addresses every flaw of the original – and even if some issues remain it's still a very enjoyable alternative to the Persona series.

Exactly as engrossing and meticulously designed as you'd expect of FromSoftware but even by their standards this is an enthralling slice of DLC that underlines and enhances the achievements of the original.

6 / 10 - DarkStar One
Jun 18, 2024

One of the least demanded remasters on Switch is a primitive but surprisingly nostalgic reminder of just how ambitious and open-ended gaming could be in the Xbox 360 era.

A walking simulator that's also a love letter to The Thing, transplanting its blend of naturalistic realism and abject horror into an immaculately recreated 1970s North Sea oil rig.

A Star Wars version of Overwatch is not the worst idea ever, but its full potential can only barely be glimpsed through a miasma of cloying microtransactions and purposefully shallow gameplay.
