Mick Fraser's Reviews
Reignbreaker is a decent isometric roguelike, but doesn't do enough to stand out in a genre that's getting more and more crowded.
Beyond the Ice Palace 2 is unashamedly retro and blatantly derivative, but it's also quite enjoyable to play if you like a stiff challenge.
Wanderstop's gorgeous visuals, solid character writing, and relaxing workaday gameplay routine brew up a wonderful experience.
Despite an attempt to add context and colour to the world, the best bit of Trailmakers: Pioneers is still the building.
Fans will find so much to love in Suikoden I & II HD Remaster. They're relics of a simpler time, but it's hard to deny the sheer charm and likeability on offer.
At times, Knights in Tight Spaces feels like two steps forward and one hop back where it counts.
Once again Two Point Studios have delivered a bright, fun, and likeable management sim that is simple to get into it, but deep enough to keep you invested – and I can’t wait to see what they do next.
Monster Hunter Wilds feels like a true evolution of the series, maintaining everything that gives it it's identity but tweaking multiple elements to improve and streamline systems.
Fans will get as much from Tomb Raider IV - VI Remastered as they did from the original trilogy remaster.
Big Helmet Heroes is a silly game, but that’s by design, which makes it not only silly but a ton of fun, too.
COLD VR has a solid core concept but fails to ever really impress with it.
Technical issues damage the experience at times, but Marvel's Spider-Man 2 on PC is still a great game.
Despite a few issues, Avowed had me hooked throughout. It's a beautiful, incredibly charming game that does its best to fill a gap where the Elder Scrolls 6 should be.
If all you’re after is a mostly chilled extraction game occasionally broken up by fights to the death, you could do worse than Synduality: Echo of Ada.
Citizen Sleeper 2: Starward Vector is a special game, that shapes itself around your decisions and map your fate by chance as much as choice.
Ninja Gaiden 2 Black is a great remastering of a genuinely superb game, and will raise a smile in fans and new players alike.
It may not look overly original on the surface, but dive a little further and Mark of the Deep is an engaging, compelling little adventure.
If you're in the mood for a charming adventure through a gorgeous fantasy world, Eternal Strands is worth checking out.
IDUN - Frontline Survival is an interesting take on the tower defence genre with likeable characters and a fun story.
Ender Magnolia: Bloom in the Mist is a confident, compelling adventure filled with interesting boss fights, inventive mechanics, lovely visuals and wonderful music.
