Andrew Duncan's Reviews

Rising the ranks from humble news writer, Andrew is now editor for GameGrin and likes writing about games from that sweet spot between retro and new.
6 / 10.0 - Cloudbuilt
Apr 28, 2014

It's very smooth and nice to look at, but loading times are quite long and made the wait for constant death quite boring. It seems unable to decide whether it is a parkour game or a third-person shooter, and that hampers what could be a much better game had it decided between the two.

8 / 10.0 - Life Goes On
Apr 29, 2014

While this would be a strong game on mobile, the lack of storyline or replayability mar an otherwise great game about mass knight suicide.

It's a fun romp through New York, but the long load times and annoying web swinging mar a great game. Lots of easter eggs for comic nerds like me does earn Beenox points, though.

This may not be a game changing MMO, but if you love Marvel superheroes you can't go wrong with a Free-to-Play game. It's easy to pick up and fun to play - what more do you need?

5 / 10.0 - Lovely Planet
Aug 21, 2014

It's not a bad game by any means, just very niche and gets incredibly difficult very quickly. If you like to take your time and enjoy a bit of a storyline you should definitely look elsewhere.

It’s an enjoyable game which doesn’t really have any flaws. And given it's in Early Access, it will probably gain missing features over the coming weeks.

It's not a perfect game, with possibly buggy AI and a steep learning curve, but it is definitely fun and has the one-more-go feel to it.

There really isn't a lot to this game, past the flashy visuals and leaderboards, so if you're looking for more depth than the original Geometry Wars, you'll be disappointed.

With its new features, Omega Ruby puts me in good spirits for what the next generation of Pokémon games will bring. It may be easier than past titles, but there are ways to make it a little more difficult if you prefer. A solid entry into the franchise.

8 / 10.0 - Scrolls
Feb 12, 2015

With nice looks and lots of replayability, there is a lot to like about Scrolls.

I'm sure that once all five episodes are out, the game will be a great one, deserving of the highest scores. But right now the generic, unlikeable characters mar what could have been pretty perfect.

The writing is pretty bad, but the puzzles are improved and it has great set pieces.

8 / 10.0 - Ironcast
Apr 8, 2015

Ironcast is an esoteric little package with a lot to offer. The levels vary in difficulty and really do need you to keep your head in the game, despite it looking like a simplistic match-3. If match-3 and strategy are your thing, then this is a perfect game for you.

8 / 10.0 - Convoy
Apr 8, 2015

Convoy is a fun and interesting game, only slightly let down by the uninspired graphics. Some nice nods to other sci-fi properties and great writing make you want to keep trying time and again.

Great subject, humour and gameplay meet charming music and graphics to make magic. It may be a little too easy for hardcore tactical buffs, but for me this game is perfect.

Strongly focussed on relationship building between the main characters, the somewhat simpler puzzles and return of previous problems bring it down.

4 / 10.0 - Omega Quintet
May 28, 2015

A great battle system and the ultimate in the sheer amount of customisation features, hampered by a metric-butt-ton of boring dialogue, dragging cutscenes which are boring to watch and boring characters.

It has detective bits, it has crime fighting bits and it has creepy bits - just like a good Batman comic. Playing this makes you realise how much work goes into being Batman, the focus and commitment that Bruce Wayne shows, his willingness to do whatever it takes to save the day... It's not a perfect game, but it's a perfect Batman game.

7 / 10.0 - Godzilla
Jul 17, 2015

For a game about big things, it's kinda short. Great classic action, lots to do, but not much of it.

A repetitive storyline and lack of complexity can be forgiven due to the love shown by the creators of this fun fighter.
