8 / 10.0 - SCHiM

SCHiM is an adorable indie platformer with a unique presentation and mechanic that make it a must-play for fans of cosy games and platformers.

6 / 10.0 - MudRunner VR
Jul 2, 2024

It's an OK experience that won't change the world. Seasoned MudRunners or SnowRunners may get a kick out of this for a few hours, but overall I found it to be pretty mundane beyond the realistic driving elements.

With its strong presentation and mix of survival elements, Still Wakes the Deep reinforces the strong streak of walking sim-adjacent games that we’ve been blessed with lately.

Astor: Blade of the Monolith is an excellent game with some fantastic environments, satisfying combat and some classic boss fights. The game almost has it perfect but I want more out of it, more puzzles, more NPCs, more variation and more to sink into.

7.5 / 10.0 - HappyFunland
Jun 18, 2024

With a running time of barely 3 hours, HFL is short but sweet, and with a little replayability by way of hidden collectibles, there is a little more you can eke out of it here and there.

Wrapped in nostalgic packaging, Hypercharge: Unboxed is a casual and accessible shooter that would have benefited from some added depth to its mechanics.

8 / 10.0 - V Rising
Jun 12, 2024

V Rising is as triumphant on PlayStation 5 as it is on PC. However, the only major downer on PS5 is needing to pay to play online, but that's now a standard difference between PC and console gaming.

8.2 / 10.0 - V Rising
May 26, 2024

V Rising is a tough game, but a damned good one. The learning curve is steep and while there are already guides out there for enhancing your playthroughs, the game offers so much variety and so many ways to accomplish things that even if you suck at it, you crave for more!

When playing Outcast 2 you can feel that it was a labour of love. While not exceptional, what the game does it does well, and in certain areas it's actually quite outstanding. It's not a game for everyone and the price tag is quite high for an AA production, but if you're a fan of this kind of stuff, you're in for a treat. A cheesy treat that's janky here and there, but a treat nonetheless.

If you're into this style of game, the studio behind it or manga/anime culture and are looking for a jaunt this sequel to 2064 may well be for you!

7.5 / 10.0 - Sand Land
May 10, 2024

Sand Land wraps Akira Toriyama’s charm in a decent action RPG that serves as an adequate entry point to the Sand Land franchise.

Endless Ocean Luminous could be far better in a lot of ways, but as it stands it's good enough to have eked out a decent chunk of my time collecting hundreds of fish and hunting down the elusive mythical beasts!

It's a faithful port of the arcade game which adds two extra stages, but it is massively underwhelming for anyone hoping for something fun to play.

Alone in the Dark was a reboot I've been looking forward to and actually had on my list of pre-orders prior to receiving a review copy, so needless to say, I was excited to play it and it didn't disappoint. It lays a good foundation for a series relaunch, even if it seems quite polarising. There's a very noticeable disparity between how the game is scored by reviewers compared to how it's scored by fans, so I can't help but wonder if there's still a place in our hearts for an "old school" horror game like this, something that's more chilling than it is frightening. Me? I love this kind of stuff, and I can only hope that there's enough gamers who think alike to justify a sequel. C'mon Pieces, Hell's Kitchen awaits! Surely we haven't seen the last of Edward Carnby... right?

Rauniot delivers a stylish slice of post-apocalyptic Finland with mechanics inspired by classic point-and-click titles.

Ereban: Shadow Legacy is a commendable homage to classic stealth games and brings a satisfying twist to the genre with its original Shadow Merge mechanic.

8.8 / 10.0 - Broken Roads
Apr 9, 2024

An impressive debut title from Drop Bear Bytes, Broken Roads has what it takes to be considered as one of the iconic contemporary cRPGs.

Abandoning all charm and fun that the franchise is known for, South Park: Snow Day! manages to deliver one of the most disappointing games I’ve played in a long time. If you’re a South Park fan, this will just make you yearn for the already existing better games. And if you’re not? All you have to look forward to is mediocre gameplay and unattractive graphics. Your time and money are better spent literally anywhere else.

8.5 / 10.0 - Dragon's Dogma 2
Apr 5, 2024

If you can overlook the unnecessary microtransactions, you’ll find in Dragon’s Dogma 2 a captivating and engaging action-RPG experience.
