Dylan Blight's Reviews
If there are some patches to fix the bugs and technical issues, it could be recommended on sale, but until then I cannot suggest anyone play this game.
‘Family Secrets’ slips off the lid on the Ronan home and its secrets, but it certainly hasn’t spilled all of them just yet. As a middle chapter, everything is set in place for where the final chapter is headed.
There’s undoubtedly a lot of Life is Strange in the DNA of Tell Me Why. The latest episodic narrative adventure from developer Dontnod deals with similar themes and features two young adults at the head of a personal narrative, with a little bit of supernatural twist thrown in.
There’s a sense of achievement that comes with beating a game like Windbound. It may not be as difficult as something like Bloodborne, but it feels like you’ve run a marathon.
Superliminal features a rather ingenious puzzle design, but it’s held back by the finicky nature of solving them.
Fight Crab is for a very, very niche audience and if that’s you, you’ll know it. This includes Twitch streamers and Youtubers looking for an easily emotive game, this is sure to be a content making machine.
I’m not sure how much longevity it’ll have compared to other multiplayer games, but the fact it’s so enjoyable to watch and easy to learn means it’ll at least be the go-to party game for the rest of the year.
Skully rolls at its own pace. Which can include some sharp difficulty spikes and lead to some rather frustrating levels. But there’s an undeniable sense of old-school mascot fun to be had here in an adventure that doesn’t overstay its welcome.
As the swan song of the PS4 generation, Ghost of Tsushima is suitably a mishmash of many of the generation’s biggest things with a sprinkle of new ideas.
There’s no world in which I see this game attracting a new audience. The humour, references, load times and mission structure are evidence of an old game. Returning fans will enjoy their moment with Crypto-137 once again, but in time to see a fresh entry? I’m doubtful.
It’s equal parts Metroidvania and player directed blood-bath and one of the best games of the year so far.
This is one of those times it sucks to have to give a bad review to a game. I wanted to love this game. Little Reaper has a lot of cool ideas but none of them come together.
The exploration on how words can change the way people receive you — or in this case, how an evening at the bar can go, is interesting, even if there’s not quite enough going on behind the scenes to make nine playthroughs feel necessary.
Desperados III is simply one of the best stealth games can play right now.
Move Controllers continue to age well-past their due date, but the game achieves its main goal. Iron Man VR makes you feel like a genius, billionaire, playboy, philanthropist; you are Iron Man.
The Last of Us Part II is, simply put, another generation-defining narrative that will push the whole industry forward.
With the multiplayer being DOA on PS4, at least, the game is left feeling oddly hallow at launch, but there’s enough campaign and replayability to hold the attention of players for 15-30 hours as you max out your squads level, abilities and track down each chapters secrets.
Minecraft Dungeons is a simple entry-point ARPG. But it could have been so much more if it leaned heavier into being “baby’s first ARPG” as well as the elements that make Minecraft, Minecraft.
There’s fun to be had here, especially if you’ve had a shit day at work and want to chop the limbs off some lumbering fools for fifteen minutes.
You can easily boot up Maneater and crush your jaws into the finish line in an afternoon and get some solid laughs out of the revenge story and silly antics. Just be aware of the current technical issues and glitches that are keeping this beached as for the time being.
