Gareth Brading's Reviews
If you’re in the mood for some over-the-top action and can stomach some repetitive shooting, Gungrave G.O.R.E. will satisfy that itch.
Goat Simulator 3 is a bigger, more action-packed version of the same madcap wackiness which many enjoyed in the first game.
If you enjoy a grisly and gory game and are up for some Myst-like puzzles, Scorn has got you covered.
Beacon Pines is a lovely way to spend some hours in the company of some charming characters and a nicely emotional sequence of branching narratives.
It’s worth seeing for the unique setting, but its brevity, lack of character and worldbuilding leave The Plague Doctor of Wippra feeling rather underbaked.
If you’re looking for a thoughtful horror story with plenty of worldbuilding, The Excavation of Hob’s Barrow has it in spades.
Return to Monkey Island is more Monkey Island, and if you’ve been missing out on that for years, this is an excellent return to form.
Wayward Strand is certainly worth a playthrough or two to see the various stories and conversations you missed the first time around, and the heartfelt, caring atmosphere it fosters will help to raise your spirits.
Gerda: A Flame in Winter is a deeply emotive tale of love, loss and resistance set in the closing months of the Second World War.
Murder at Castle Nathria is another strong expansion to the now venerable Hearthstone, but it doesn't address the game's core problems.
Two Point Campus is a nicely satisfying, funny management game, and a gentle evolution on its predecessor.
For fans of narrative adventures like Virginia, South of the Circle is an unquestionable recommendation.
Silt is a brilliantly atmospheric adventure puzzle game, which allows you to explore a fantastically realized underwater labyrinth.
There has never been a better time to experience The Stanley Parable, where the end is never truly the end.
République certainly scratches a similar Metal Gear Solid itch, but its rather confusing controls and frustrating camera system may hamper your enjoyment.
While the open world format relies too much on repetitious side activities, Ghostwire: Tokyo’s beautiful world is successful in maintaining engagement.
While Royal Court’s new additions are enjoyable, they don’t particularly affect the core gameplay loop.
If you missed Edge of Eternity on PC, the console versions are a decent way of experiencing it.
Evil Genius 2: World Domination makes its way to consoles in an approachable and streamlined way.
Afflicted with some atrocious performance problems, Jett predominantly left me feeling frustrated rather than awed.
