Nicola Ardron's Reviews
Beyond Eyes most certainly is not a game for everyone. It's a noble attempt to show life with a disability through a clever mechanic, but sadly at times it forgets it is also a video game.
A witty, sometimes challenging point and click adventure that will charm new players and delight existing fans.
A fun, but unremarkable beat-em-up, best enjoyed with a group of friends.
A fiendishly difficult 2d arcade-style platformer that will have you simultaneously shouting at the telly with rage and delight.
A great tie-in and a solid game in its own right, The Escapists: The Walking Dead is an enjoyable and surprisingly deep head-scratcher.
A solid, functional episode, but one clearly aimed at a younger audience and therefore less involving than previous Telltale adventures.
Assembly Required is a solid, but very short, entry. Here's hoping that episode three can start to pull it back around.
More action packed than the previous episodes, with better character development and progression, The Last Place you Look is the best episode yet.
Fat Princess is a fun, well made, but ultimately shallow four-player hack and slash with a cutesy aesthetic and amusing writing.
The conclusion to the Wither Storm storyline is delivered in a refreshing and heartfelt way, and I am looking forward to seeing what Jesse and friends get up to in the conclusion.
The Witness is an outstanding game, one that slowly reveals its brilliance and assumes the players intelligence rather than guides it. It is an absolute must play for puzzle fans.
A competent map pack featuring two that are very good, one that's extremely popular, and one not very good map.
One of the best multiplayer games available today. Rocket League is a fantastically fun, frenetic game and you'd be hard pushed to find a better arcade-style football game anywhere else.
ADIOS is an interesting little game, but fiddly controls and annoying camera can quickly erode that fun.
It's supposed to be terrible, because it's satire, but you reach a point where you begin to feel like the deliberate poor quality is an insult rather than a jape.
Ironcast is a solid strategy game, easy mechanics and a deep level of customisation makes it worth coming back to.
Dungeon of the Endless blends the constituent parts of different genres together to create an engrossing strategy game that offers and incredibly deep and complicated experience.
Order Up is the funniest episode to date and while it isn't the conclusion some people will be expecting, it does a good job of creating a fun and entertaining story as well as laying the groundwork for future adventures.
It's a good start to the DLC schedule, but might not be enough just yet to get people to commit to the full Season Pass. The maps are well designed with lots of fan service and the new mode is a very welcome addition.
Koi is a beautiful, soft and serene game that doesn't quite manage to fulfil the ideas and message it is clearly trying to convey.
