Nearly everything is a little more unusual or complicated than your standard RPG, but it's familiarity means you pick things up as you go along
The build-up in Asemblance’s mysterious psychological nature is so well done that the final pay-off being so difficult only ends up leaving a bad taste in your mouth
Planar Conquest… probably isn’t going to sit well with you unless you’ve already amassed a serious number of hours into these types of games before
The look of the game is by far one of the most impressive aspect it has to offer.
Particularly smart games will normally reward you for exploring every nook and cranny, but here there's nothing to find
One of the most frustrating aspects of the level design is the game's liberal use of instant-kill environmental hazards. They appear frequently and in ways that trigger cheap and frustrating deaths
Once you do open up the puzzle routes, Zero Time Dilemma becomes a well-blended avalanche of slick cinematics and brain-teasing escapes for the next 20 hours
[Neon Chrome‘s] bright and shiny visuals are certainly a pleasure to look at, while the tactical shooting and use of perks offers a different challenge each time you play
If you like your games to be a little more taxing, you won’t find anything here that will push your limits
Thanks to cross-play between PlayStation 4 and PC… the community remains strong, even a couple months post-release
Despite being yet another zombie game, Deadlight still feels fresh and unique thanks to being played entirely on the 2D plane
Forgetting about the repetitiveness and lifelessness of the environments for a moment, it's clear that there's strong art design behind it all, combining clean lines with bold colours to create a world that feels clinical, cool and futuristic
The best feature of Sssnakes however is the price: this game can be purchased for just a penny short of two quid!
Those minor faults aside, Mecha Ritz: Steel Rondo is a wonderful little game. The pixel art is strong, wiry, and grainy. The FM Synth soundtrack creates an effect like watching an 80s action movie on a dusty VHS cassette. The cherry on top is fast-paced dodge-and-destroy gameplay against a rogues gallery of killer robots. Now, if only somebody could explain to me what’s up with all of the coffee references.
The music brilliantly added to the creepy, empty atmosphere of the Ark, and the drama is so well done that at points I was frustrated at the game for asking me to make dialogue choices
The idea of being able to poop on people to the rhythm of 'Barbie Girl' made me more excited than it should have
Variety is the spice of life they say, and if true, Trials of The Blood Dragon could very well be the key to immortality
Mastering other games tends to be a matter of simple pattern recognition or savviness to the mechanics, but mastering Star Fox Zero is more like taming a wild animal: once you have it, you have it, and it's all a cruise from there
The important bit, the actual combat, is where Guilty Gear Xrd Revelator genuinely shines
Where [The Descendant] really shines is in its unique story and interesting characters with mysterious pasts that I can't wait to find out about
