Fight N’ Rage is a great addition to the beat’em up genre. Fast paced and over the top, it’s sure to appeal to new gamers while reaching old school gamers who grew up on Streets of Rage and Final Fight. However, in order to stay faithful to classic beat’em ups, there’s plenty of cheap hits and there’s a lack of depth combo-wise, especially compared to recent River City Girls; however the amount of content to unlock will keep you hooked and busy for the foreseeable future.
Smoots Summer Games has so much potential, but overall fall’s short and doesn’t quite make the Olympic final. That’s not to say there isn’t a competitor here. Smoots Summer Games can be a lot of fun with a group of friends, it just doesn’t make the grade overall.
Bus Simulator is the ultimate bus driving experience, offering realism behind the cockpit. The game handles really well with crisp smooth visuals and supports various camera modes, the best being first person. You really do feel like you’re in full control.
Pawarumi for me is how you should produce a modern Shoot’em up. It’s fresh with new ideas in terms of its colour coded firing system, 3D global locations, which offer a real sense of purpose. The game has excellent sound effects and an awesome soundtrack which adds to the feel of the game. Pawarumi is a game that captures you, with it’s thrilling and exciting attitude and pace, with good use of important replayability features. My only criticism is that the game is a little short, and would have been better had the developers included an rpg levelling up system for your craft.
River City Girls is definitely one of the best gaming experiences of 2019. The game is perfectly balanced, addictively fun and with an enticing soundtrack, old school and new gamers alike are sure to enjoy this title from a classic genre.
In today’s gaming age, it is really difficult to recommend Metal Chaos Wolf XD to anyone else besides FromSoftware’s diehard fans. The game itself hasn’t really aged well and due to some outdated mechanics, it will turn off a lot of gamers.
Overall, Blair Witch the game is a captivating and immersive experience, with excellent instinctive gameplay, game that everyone should try…. best enjoyed with the light’s low and the headphones on for the ultimate spooky walk in the woods.
Overall, Streets of Rogue is an enjoyable rogue-lite offering a new experience every time you play. Will you hack the electrics to turn off security cameras or knock on the door and go in guns blazing, there’s a play style suited to everyone. It has lots of nonsense too from taking a pill to make you a giant right through to grabbing a toilet and throwing it all over someone to poison them. The co-op is a great addition too, and definitely worth a try at some point.
WRC 8 game capture’s the very soul of rally driving, and offer’s a fantastic experience. With beautiful graphics, stunning tracks and an awesome career mode. The challenge modes are breath of fresh air, especially with the inclusion of the Esports challenge. If you love racer’s but aren’t so keen on Rally games, give it a go, you won’t regret it.
All and all, The Blackout Club is a lot fun, full of action, but with a heavy emphasis on stealth and teamwork. At this point I shall point out that the game can be played on your own, but for the most immersive experience I suggest, you grab a mic and join in with the other online players of the game, as that’s where the game comes into it’s own.
In summary, Mochi Mochi is a cute puzzle adventure, with elements of classic gameplay, complemented with progressive difficulty and visuals to match. Offering a nice change of pace, which can prove hard to put down once you get going.
Meow Motor’s is wonderfully presented, colourful, vibrant and bright. The Character’s are wonderfully created, each with there own little personalities that will warm to the player’s heart. The Tracks are crafted excellently, designed to complement the gameplay, thus giving a real sense of speed and escape. The races themselves are what you’d expect from a kart racer, however there’s a lack of individuality about them, the word clone is used a lot in gaming, and unfortunately the race modes featured in the game lack adventure and in my view are to safe, offering nothing new in very populated genre.
Lost Orbit: Terminal Velocity has a perfectly poised balance between technical moments and cleansing graceful flight, with a hypnotic and mesmeric feel to it, which makes it engaging and pleasing to play.
Overall, Undead horde is a smooth cross between Medieval and Overlord, offered at a stunning price. The controls are fantastic, the graphical layout and world design compliment each other perfectly. Re-animating is a lot of fun, as is deploying your horde and plundering the villages. The Gameplay is simple and very effective, the RPG elements and upgrade options are implemented wonderfully well helping to create a title that will keep you coming back for more. The only thing the game is missing, besides online play, is a real atmospheric approach.
Supermarket Shriek is fresh, exciting and energetic all at the same time, offering something completely new. Add to that the hilarious Duet microphone control mode, and you really do have a conversation starter that won’t just break the ice, you’ll have next door banging on the door, wanting to see what all the excitement is about. With online leaderboards, downloadable ghosts, and an 8 player party mode, and it’s hard to see how you won’t enjoy this experience, certainly one to try (available on xbox Game Pass).
Overall, Party Golf proved my first thoughts and impression of the game wrong. It has a fantastic idea of what a couch play title should bring – fun, finesse, flamboyance, mixed with pick up and play controls, top notice gameplay, and a conversation starter. A joy to behold and a pleasure to play, this game will have you coming back for more, inviting your friends round again and again.
Overall, Verlet Swing gets a lot of things right, but has a few flaws, it’s just a shame that these flaws are the key components of the game. The swing mechanism and the rather tricky progressive level system are its biggest hurdles – it takes the enjoyment out of the game. For those that love a real challenge, that’s not for the faint hearted this is the game for you. Speed runners only I’m afraid.
Ovivo is quite simply a truly unique game offer story telling through game play with out the use of speech or text. The experience and flow of the mechanics behind the game tell the story, and the graphical artwork on offer is mesmerising. With a chill out stance in terms of gameplay, the whole package intertwines perfectly, and although it won’t be everyone’s cup of tea, you should all take the time to look into this wonderfully created game, and appreciate its very existence.
Super Blood Hockey has plenty to whet the appetite, be that with an awesome detailed single player franchise mode, where you manage just about everything, to the excellent local play multiplayer modes. This little gem has just about everything you could want from an arcade style Ice Hockey game, the retro goodness, the chiptunist soundtrack, and the awesome gameplay. Super Blood Hockey will have you doing just about anything to win!
Overall, the game plays well and the whole package it represents is enjoyable, an arcade style feel adventure, with a story that offers a sense of exploration and mystery. The combat system is awesome and allows for excitement, as you get creative with the weapons on hand. I just love the direction of this 2.5D dynamic motorbike adventure, which fuses so many different elements, and pulls it off impressively.
