With its charming world, enjoyable soundtrack, and dogs brimming with character, there’s lots of fun to be had with Pupperazzi. Unfortunately, replaying the levels even with variable weather conditions and day/night options can get stale a few hours in. Exploring is a joy the first time, but once players have seen everything there is to offer, there’s not much else. There's also some inconsistencies with dogNET, with users' responses sometimes praising a photo for elements it doesn't include. Despite this, Pupperazzi is barking up the right tree for dog fans. Thanks to its simple controls, this wholesome indie game is one that can be enjoyed by the whole family, and with its humor and cute pups, it’s hard not to crack a smile while snapping away.
Despite its flaws, The Otterman Empire shows a lot of promise and delivers some really fun co-op play – if you can overlook its issues.
Though No Straight Roads is filled to the brim with character and style, it can’t overcome its needless complexity in a game which is more taxing than it is fun.
For those who’ve been patiently waiting for an up-to-par follow-up to the immensely popular Until Dawn, The Quarry might not be it. While its immersive gameplay and dynamic characters are enough to carry the majority of the game, the title is a narrative adventure with no resolutions for its heroes. A post-credits scene revealing how The Quarry survivors escaped - and what came next - or even just a reunion between the friends after their ordeal would have gone a long way in saving what ended up to be a disappointment. While The Quarry is an impressive graphical showcase of new-gen possibilities, it seems that in terms of story, players will have to continue waiting for a true successor to Until Dawn.
Projection: First Light started out as one of my favourite indie games of the year so far, but with a game-breaking bug in the mix, it’s sadly going to fall short of what I initially expected to score it. Hopefully the bug will be fixed soon, but for now, it unfortunately has to be reflected in my score.
All in all, if you enjoyed the first Remothered then this one is worth picking up, but you might want to wait for a sale.
Although not perfect, this is a solid and enjoyable experience that will get you cr*pping your pants
Shemue I & II look like old games but they’re being sold as exactly what they are – a revisit into one of gaming’s most seminal and ground-breaking experiences.
The Walking Dead: The Final Season is a must-play for existing fans of the series, and for those who like a little philosophy and love in their games.
All in all, Sekiro is a fantastic experience that shouldn’t be missed by Soulsborne fans and series newbies alike. It stands shoulder to shoulder with the other great ARPGs of the era, and is well worth spending hours mastering.
Resident Evil 2 is one of the most exciting games I've in a long time.
It’s not exactly a Game Of The Year contender and it’s not about to revolutionise the FC franchise, but it’s a fun and enjoyable free-for-all in a world devoid of order.
Travis Strikes Again: No More Heroes definitely deviates from the series’ standard, but it implements the changes in a way that’s refreshing, unique and incredibly fun.
I’d thoroughly recommend Yoshi’s Crafted World to young gamers, Mario fans and people with a passion for platformers, but it’s not going to do much for hardcore gamers with such little meat on its bones.
All in all, Supermassive Games is off to a strong start with to The Dark Pictures Anthology with Man of Medan. Although the company is yet to announce any details on the following games in the series, Man of Medan is a tasty appetiser for what's hopefully going to be a deliciously devilish meal.
There's more meat to Realm of Magic than, say Strangerville, but it's not a perfect Pack…
Despite what you might think judging by style of the game, Corpse Party: Blood Drive is, first and foremost, a horror title.
What you’ll get out of Super Monkey Ball Banana Blitz HD depends on your style as a gamer. If you’re looking for a fun title that you can enjoy in short bursts, or if you just have a soft spot for the series, this is a must-add to your collection. If you’re looking for anything else, this might not be the game for you.
Despite the problems with the Switch port of the game, it’s still a game I’d recommend to horror fans, sci-fi fans, and yeah, BioShock fans.
Despite the many things Need for Speed: Heat does right, there’s just not enough there to keep me jumping back in for more.
