Nick Gillham's Reviews
Dragon Quest XI S is as perfect a port as you could ask for, and makes you feel good about owning a Switch in the first place.
Initial bewilderment gives way to fascination as you understand what Ancestors is trying to do, but fiddly controls and a lack of hand-holding leads to frustration
Hyperforma is constantly stunning in terms of looks, but you'll spend too much time wondering what you're supposed to be doing.
The Creature in the Well is a harsh mistress, but one that's incredibly rewarding to those who push on
Agent A is more Johnny English than James Bond but there's no harm in having a little fun as a spy.
A brave choice at something different by Tokyo RPG Factory finds a game that's good but crying out for new ideas
I won't tell any lies here, Telling Lies is another excellent piece of narrative game design from Sam Barlow and I sincerely hope there's more to come
Sirlin Games' Fantasy Strike is looking to make pros out of all of us with a simple pick up and play style that hides considerable tactical depth.
Exception almost wound up being exceptional, but unfortunately is broken enough to warrant steering clear of until things are fixed
A solid first effort from the Romanian outfit, a good narrative just let down by some overly simple puzzling
While not as horrible as the Professor's pets, overly fiddly controls mar an otherwise decent puzzle adventure.
How this hadn't been done before I will never know, but Pawarumi's melding of rock, paper, scissors to a shooter is quite frankly, a blast.
Building on the original's strong foundations Dragon Quest Builders 2 is a sequel that improves on the original in almost every way.
Easy to pick up, hard to put down. Muse Dash is a brilliant slice of musical goodness.
A marriage made in heaven, Cadence of Hyrule is a toe-tapping, monster slaying groove-fest
Miniature mechs minus the mayhem, Futurlab's newest is bursting with tactical depth, yet lacking in variety.
If you're after a royale-y good time you should look much farther than Tetris 99.
Project Nimbus is a solid if unspectacular mecha action game that's packed with content for a reasonable price.
While Wastelands improves on episode two for the most part there's still a long way to go to hit the heights of season one.
Boxboy + Boxgirl is a banging, box-based Brain-teasing bonanza and brilliant at a budget price.
