God is a Geek

The series has managed to reinvent itself, all whilst still keeping the heart of the series intact. Bayek is a great character, and the open world of Egypt is remarkable.

Nights of Azure 2 on Nintendo Switch is a lazy port with loads of visual and performance issues and a downgrade compared to the first one in every aspect.

Yomawari: Midnight Shadows is a worthy successor to one of my favourite horror games and an unforgettable experience that is marred with a few annoyances.

Echo is an example of an exceptional idea that is enough to carry a whole game. The clever use of AI creates unique challenges, but the lack of environmental changes and same enemy type throughout means that it does slightly out-stay its welcome.

Conga Master Party is fun while you're in it, but the appeal is a little short lived, just like a real conga line.

Even if you're not a fan of bullet hell you should give Earth Atlantis a try, this really doesn't deserve to sink without a trace.

Despite some fun shooting, Rogue Trooper Redux plays almost identically to the original, which unfortunately hasn't aged too well.

Not just a great game to bear the Fire Emblem name but also one of the best Warriors games out there.

It's a love letter to the driving machines of the racing world, but only time will tell if its multiplayer focus works.

The Evil Within 2 is a game that uses stealth and atmosphere to create some great situations, but its use of sound elevates its scares well beyond those of lesser horror titles.

Whilst there are some changes, it doesn't feel that different from last year, and the technical issues hinder enjoyment somewhat.

Stardew Valley on the Switch is my third time buying it and the only one that actually clicked and got me addicted while proving to be a relaxing experience in the middle of the busy review season.

A great sequel with much more going on, and is built with a lot of love and respect for the series it comes from.

An adventure that will only appeal to people who really miss the old ways

Transcripted is a fun game with some nice ideas, but it'd be far more at home on a tablet or handheld without all the boring dialogue.

Touhou Kobuto V: Burst Battle is the worst Touhou game I've played and one that you should avoid unless you absolutely must own everything Touhou.

Bad Apple Wars is yet another interesting otome game from Otomate that manages to stand out from their other releases really well but one that has a terrible font that annoyed me constantly.

Etrian Odyssey V is a true successor to the original two Nintendo DS Etrian Odyssey games but one that has modern improvements to gameplay and a best in class customization system.

Offering up a small slice of emergent storytelling, Another Lost Phone does a good job of highlighting difficult themes.

Fun, quaint and a bit buggy, Golf Story is a lovely but flawed distraction.
