8.5 / 10.0 - Richard & Alice
Jul 4, 2014

Richard and Alice is an extremely unique, compelling game that lovers of narrative are sure to enjoy. While those who are looking for a more action-oriented title may leave disappointed, there is a great, original story waiting for those who invest the time into the game. Some obscure tasks and hard to find objects mar the experience a little, but cannot take away much from an otherwise great game.

This may not be a game changing MMO, but if you love Marvel superheroes you can't go wrong with a Free-to-Play game. It's easy to pick up and fun to play - what more do you need?

8.5 / 10.0 - WildStar
Jul 1, 2014

For the same subscription price as World of Warcraft, Wildstar has a huge amount of content to offer the player. While it is more tailored to those looking to put in the effort it has huge amounts of potential to claim the throne from WoW though in all honesty we can see these two MMORPG's co-existing quite happily while dominating the rest of the market.

7 / 10.0 - DreadOut
Jun 30, 2014

With just the first level having a fair bit of life in it, despite it's few faults, the game is looking quite good so far. Maybe DreadOut is the game we've been looking for to help the Horror genre along in its path to success.

9 / 10.0 - The Fall
Jun 28, 2014

The game offers a great story, brilliant voice acting, a notable aesthetic progression and an innovative combat system. And while a little short the only thing left to say is: you should play this game.

7.5 / 10.0 - GRID Autosport
Jun 28, 2014

GRID Autosport does nothing majorly wrong, but at the same time fails to deliver the pulse-racing excitement expected from a modern racing title. Fans of the GRID franchise, and Codemasters' racing games in general, will be perfectly content and love it for all its flaws. For the casual gamer, the overall experience is perhaps just too underwhelming to recommend over Gran Turismo or Forza Motorsport.

For the Anomaly series as a whole, this seems like an unnecessary step backwards from the fun convoy-leading gameplay of the first two games. As a game in and of itself however, Anomaly Defenders is a capable and fun game that fans of the genre should enjoy. At a low price it's worth a gamble, but don't expect the same inspired experience of Anomaly 2.

6 / 10.0 - Among the Sleep
Jun 25, 2014

Among The Sleep was a bit of a letdown on the horror front, but if you're looking for an interesting interactive story, you should definitely give it a shot. The immersion mechanics were great and they managed to make you feel powerless, if only for a brief period. It would've been nice to see some more realistic environments and subtle scare tactics and, if these were added, it would've been a fantastic game, rather than just a good one.

The storyline definitely made up for the short campaign time, though understandably, others prefer a longer game and less of a story. There are some disappointing factors, but altogether, I thoroughly enjoyed the experience and the game made me want to continue to find out more; which essentially, a game should always try to keep your interest piqued.

9 / 10.0 - Space Run
Jun 22, 2014

Space Run really is a thoroughly enjoyable game with rewarding level completion, just the right amount of humour and enough variety in missions to keep you going until men land on Mars.

8.5 / 10.0 - Tomodachi Life
Jun 19, 2014

Tomodachi Life is a delightful and wholly enjoyable game. Bound to keep kids occupied for many hours with its endless amounts of character possibilities, it seems more suited to the younger generation as its trailers would suggest. Still, if you are a fan of The Sims and Animal Crossing, as much as I hate to refer back to these games as much as I have, then I'm sure you will enjoy Tomodachi Life in some capacity, be that for the short or long term.

8 / 10.0 - Transistor
Jun 17, 2014

Beautiful, stylised and interesting. In a world of stale games Transistor takes all that was good from the loved Bastion but makes enough changes that it stand out on its own.

It's a fun romp through New York, but the long load times and annoying web swinging mar a great game. Lots of easter eggs for comic nerds like me does earn Beenox points, though.

7.5 / 10.0 - Watch Dogs
Jun 14, 2014

Watch_Dogs may not be the benchmark experience for sandbox gaming that Grand Theft Auto V was, but it's still an enjoyable experience in its own right. Compelling side missions, refined combat and some unique hacking elements make this a must for fans of the genre, but if you're looking for a grand, city-spanning story to get stuck into, this won't be a game that will hold your interest beyond a few hours.

You can't fault its ambition, but ultimately due to pacing issues, hit-and-miss writing and story that is altogether too long, the game is never very enjoyable. If you've got the patience to put up with the occasional periods where nothing much happens, Always Sometimes Monsters will reward you with a memorable, if very uneven, experience.

In Sheep's Clothing is the series' at its highest point. Thoughtful, exciting and with great character and narrative. It finally feels like the wolf is getting close to his prey, and when that final scene ends you'll be left wanting for more. If any one criticism can be leveled at In Sheep's Clothing, it is this: it sets the bar far too high for the last episode!

As the good outweighs the bad, this is certainly worth a punt. Great story, enjoyable gameplay and the key element of fun are littered throughout the game, and are marred only slightly by a few niggling technical issues and rough-edged gameplay in places. A hugely enjoyable ride, just as single-handedly blasting through waves of über-Nazis should be.

5 / 10.0 - Monochroma
Jun 6, 2014

Rating Monochroma is difficult. As it stands at the time of writing, it cannot be recommended; and it must be reviewed based on how it is now. Fortunately, control issues are something that can (and should) be fixed with a post-release patch, and if that happens then this awkward experience could transform into a beautiful, if brief, journey.

A Story About My Uncle is a great game with outstanding visuals and exceptional storytelling. If you're looking for a dreamy, sunday-afternoon game that takes time and a love of exploration to enjoy with a wonderful story, then you'll find this will definitely hit the spot.

I would most certainly suggest Sir, You Are Being Hunted to anyone who's looking for something fun. It doesn't hold up for long due to its minimal story and non-existent class system but what it does, it does well.
