Nick Gillham's Reviews

Nick is an avid video game entusiast and has been since his mum first allowed him to play on the Atari 2600 she never touched. To this day he's had the pleasure of playing on a vast array of different gaming machines. He's a recovering WoW-holic and when he's not playing games he's talking about games, reading about games, writing about games, watching videos about games, watching his son play games or chatting rubbish on Twitter. A lover, not a fighter and an all round good guy (he would say that, he wrote this after all), he's happy to be here as part of GIAG.
4 / 10.0 - Has Been Heroes
Apr 13, 2017

Hard and unforgiving, Has Been Heroes has the potential to create the videogame equivalent of Jack Torrance in anyone who plays it.

7 / 10.0 - Yo-Kai Watch 2
Mar 31, 2017

A kids RPG that's kind of hard to hate, but the mileage may vary depending on how much said child likes to do as they're told.

8 / 10.0 - Just Dance 2017
Mar 23, 2017

Probably the most definitive Just Dance game yet, but maybe it should be the last?

8 / 10.0 - Snipperclips
Mar 22, 2017

Getting people playing together wherever the Switch is, is the machine's USP and Snipperclips is the game that realizes that vision most effectively.

Mar 19, 2017

It isn’t F-Zero, but there’s a good, fun challenge here for anyone with an anti-grav racing itch.

If you can ignore the sheer cost, Super Bomberman R is a great way to have fun; get it and have a blast.

9 / 10.0 - Voez
Mar 15, 2017

It’s gone under the radar a bit, but VOEZ’s place on the Switch launch line-up is highly deserved and you should give it your attention.

8 / 10.0 - I Am Setsuna
Mar 14, 2017

To many this would seem like filler to bolster a meagre launch lineup, but I am Setsuna is a game that is worthy of your time and a heritage that deserves your respect.

More of what Shovel Knight fans love, and a superb entry point for people new to the series, Spectre of Torment is a great take on modernised nostalgia.

After this it might be high time for Mario to put his sportsing behind him and stick to regaling kids with stories of his adventures, rather than his sporting achievements.

8.5 / 10.0 - Night in the Woods
Mar 2, 2017

Witty, smart and great to look at, there are many worse ways to spend your time than a Night in with Night in the Woods.

7.5 / 10.0 - Slayaway Camp
Feb 25, 2017

An inventive take on the sliding block puzzle genre, it all just depends on how quickly you get tired of slaughter.

7 / 10.0 - Hidden Folks
Feb 23, 2017

Hidden Folks is a little obtuse at times but otherwise it's delightful and compelling.

Berserk could have been great, but instead it’s an average, repetitive romp that would have benefited from a bit more thought put into what makes it special.

It's definitely worth a shot if you’re hankering for a bit of old school platforming action.

Even if you don’t play puzzle games, Linelight is a shining beacon in dark times.

6 / 10.0 - Hunter's Legacy

Hunter’s Legacy is competent enough, but doesn’t do enough to stand out in a crowded market.

6 / 10.0 - Memoranda
Jan 28, 2017

Teeth gnashing frustration prevents Memoranda from being the great game it appears to be, despite its wonderful story and puppet-like art style.

Picross 3D: Round 2 provides a relaxing puzzle experience, while making you feel like a genius whenever you just “get” it – as any good puzzle game should.

World of Final Fantasy tries to give you the nostalgia feels, but is unable to recapture the magic of previous 'hyper-deformed' games.
