7.5 / 10.0 - Little Witch Nobeta
Mar 3, 2023

A charming title that doesn't overstay its welcome; Little Witch Nobeta is a fun, if occasionally repetitive, journey of discovery. Well utilised mechanics and some epic boss fights make this a good choice for veterans of the Souls-like genre and newcomers alike.

Team Ninja's latest action RPG is equal parts challenging and exhilarating, with unique mechanics that help even the odds in even the toughest of battles. A perfect new addition to a genre already stacked with quality titles.

7 / 10.0 - Broken Lines
Jan 24, 2023

A few technical issues and simplified gameplay detract from an otherwise engaging narrative, with a likeable cast of characters. Just don't expect too much strategic thinking.

ONE PIECE ODYSSEY is a fantastic journey with the Straw Hat Crew, that combines a light-hearted adventure, with a fun and flashy combat system. A must-play if you're a ONE PIECE fan, though still very much recommended even if you're not.

6 / 10.0 - Accident
Dec 28, 2022

Short and lacking a little variety, Accident is a decent simulator that could do with a bit more substance in order to truly give it a recommendation.

Fun with friends for a short time, Firefighting Simulator - The Squad quickly loses its appeal when played alone. Commanding a team of unthinking AI that seemingly ignores your orders makes for a frustrating time.

6 / 10.0 - Steelrising
Dec 6, 2022

Whilst not featuring enough content to draw players back into Steelrising, there is some enjoyment to be found in Cagliostro's Secrets, albeit a very brief amount.

Short enough to warrant multiple playthroughs, although some of the storylines aren't quite as well-written as others, Unknown Number is an interesting title that will have puzzle fans jotting down notes and shouting into their PCs to solve some real headscratchers!

A few changes here and there improve Football Manager 2023 much more than I'd anticipated. It's still the same deeply engrossing sim that you know and love, but with a few extra bells and whistles to keep the fans happy.

A staggering amount of content makes Pathfinder: Wrath Of The Righteous an easy choice to recommend for those who have a lot of time to invest. An interesting narrative and player choices that define the outcome, this is a tale that is well worth experiencing.

Despite feeling automated at times, Construction Simulator was still a fun and very relaxed experience that simulator fans should absolutely check out.

7.5 / 10.0 - Session: Skate Sim
Oct 5, 2022

Despite the 1.0 release, Session: Skate Sim still has a few issues. However, this shouldn't keep any skating fan away from this deeply rewarding simulator that can, at times, feel just as rewarding as the real sport.

9 / 10.0 - NBA 2K23
Sep 28, 2022

An abundance of various modes and improvements to the on-court action, NBA 2K23 is an astonishing amount of fun for any basketball fan. Even the microtransactions in some modes weren't enough to dampen the pure fun that the rest of the game had to offer.

7.5 / 10.0 - Hokko Life
Sep 26, 2022

Hokko Life is a fun slice of life game that is worth a look for anyone wanting something more relaxed. The seemingly endless amount of things to see and do coupled with a charming aesthetic creates a stress-free and rewarding time, but does little to make itself stand out from similar titles.
