It may be a bit more action oriented than genuinely frightful, but Resident Evil: Village still manages to deliver on an extremely fun horror-themed experience that introduces a new twist in the series.

Unscored - Jetboard Joust
May 22, 2021

Jetboard Joust is a very fun, retro-styled arcade shooter that, for some, drifts away from what made Defender such a classic.

Asking morally-challenging questions again and again, Nier Replicant is yet another powerful, immersive and genuinely artistic title from Yoko Taro.

Unscored - Returnal
May 14, 2021

Returnal is extremely difficult, and that might drive some casual players away, but there’s very little reason to say no to a game with such an intriguing story, beautiful visuals and engaging core gameplay in the first place. Returnal is a blast and, to be quite honest, I can’t wait to get back to it.

Unscored - Flowing Lights
May 13, 2021

Flowing Lights unpacks the bullet hell genre to deliver an excellent puzzle game. It may be short, but it’s sweet enough to – in some ways – rival the classics.

New Pokémon Snap is best consumed in short bursts — while waiting for a bus, during downtime between appointments, or tucked up before bed — and it’s sure to hit the spot for those with fond memories of the original or who enjoy a wholesome palate cleanser to savour in small bites.

While the dastardly villain simulator is in need of a little TLC to truly come into its own, Evil Genius 2: World Domination makes countless improvements to the original cult classic.

Apr 22, 2021

A testament to handcrafted pixel-art perfection, Narita Boy pays tribute to the arcade classics of the ‘80s while also building on the foundation they laid.

Unscored - Genesis Noir
Apr 17, 2021

A critically intelligent and passionate journey through space and time, Genesis Noir is a stellar example of gaming, noir, and art. A must-play.

Rise snatches the torch from World and runs on ahead, further streamlining every aspect of the Monster Hunter series. While I’m sure there are broader issues beneath the surface, as always, and hardcore fans will be frustrated by some of its many changes, Rise is exceptional where it counts. Capcom has finished off what World started and succeeded where it didn’t.

The Life and Suffering of Sir Brante is an engaging fantasy RPG. It’s not perfect, but the demo is worth at least a look.

While the AU$36.00 price is ambitious for an Early Access title, Fights in Tight Spaces is a simple and fun game that you can easily lose yourself in.

Super Mario 3D World + Bowser’s Fury is a neatly refined Nintendo Switch port that makes some appreciated updates to the original Wii U title. It’s great to have yet another 3D Mario platformer on a current-day console, while Bowser’s Fury is a great episode of jumps, twirls and enemy-bonking that all 3D Mario fans will enjoy.

Despite the issues with Arkanoid vs. Space Invaders, the sheer intensity of Space Invaders Extreme and the multiplayer fun of Space Invaders Gigamax 4 SE are enough to make Space Invaders Forever a fantastic collection of classic arcade games.

Unscored - Cyberpunk 2077
Dec 27, 2020

Cyberpunk 2077 ultimately fails to deliver on most of the promises made during the lead up to its launch, but what it does deliver on is really spectacular. It’s one of the strongest RPG experiences in this kind of setting, with killer characters and a thoroughly enjoyable suite of side quests that’s easy to love in spite of its faults.

Assassin’s Creed Valhalla is a game bursting with content, and for that it’s well worth the price of admission. It’s also a game that you’ll likely take time away from before finally reaching the ending.

Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity makes some clever improvements over the original Hyrule Warriors, but ultimately feels a little more separated from The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild than many fans might have expected. Despite some messy design choices, it still manages to provide a polished and satisfying experience in the Warriors line.

Watch Dogs: Legion is an ambitious effort with a lot of unique ideas that unfortunately doesn’t quite stick the landing.

The best version of one of the best puzzle games of all time. You owe it to yourself to play this one. It’s even better with immersive lighting or VR.

Unscored - Pikmin 3 Deluxe
Nov 19, 2020

Although Nintendo didn’t choose to remaster Pikmin 3 for this rerelease, Pikmin 3 Deluxe is the same enjoyable experience with a couple of shrewd additions that add to its value. Worth a look if you’re a fan of the series, a fan of puzzle games in general, or just looking for a nice, relaxing co-op game.
