Gameplay stays faithful to the series' roots, with you controlling Graham through wonderfully created environments as you find items and interact with an amusing consortium of characters on your quest to win the king's favour

Jul 22, 2015

The fun you get from Quiplash is only limited by the people you play it with. The prudish amongst us may get easily offended by other people's answers – and they'll also probably lose with their more straight-laced responses!

I may play it on mute and get griped up at the controls, but Cute Things Dying Violently is just a wonderful little gem

Dec 29, 2015

Every moment in Undertale is made special by the superb artistry that has been put into the music; it's far from a second thought and it shows

Challenging, fast-paced and deeper than you'd expect, there's a reason why Assault Android Cactus has such a strong following, and that's because it's a no-nonsense example of the wonders of unadulterated arcade gaming.

Far Cry Primal's map is absolutely huge, and is literally teeming with objective markers and missions. I challenge even the most ardently focused of players to travel to their intended location without getting sidetracked on the way

Prison Architect does have a campaign mode (if you can call it that), but it's a bit subsided… where it does shine though is in its storytelling

90% - Rabi-Ribi
Aug 29, 2017

Rabi-Ribi's magic really lies in being relevant right now, as an innovative, deep and well-crafted 2D platformer complete with cutesy retro/Anime artstyle. It's incredibly good fun to play, engaging and witty, easy to pick up and almost impossible to put down.
