Helping run a record store in Wax Heads is more than just selling vinyl

Aphelion grabs your attention and your heart from the very start and doesn’t let go

Overall, I have been delightfully surprised by South of Midnight and enjoyed every moment I have spent playing. It is easy to get swept up in the adventure, especially with the fantastic soundtrack inspired by the folk and country music of the South. The game is lively and immersive and brings a magical and creative spin on a coming-of-age story. If you want a game rich in compelling folklore and immersive gameplay, then South of Midnight be just what you are looking for.

Wanderstop is a narrative-driven game by Ivy Road that follows Alta as she helps Boro run a tea shop in the middle of a mysterious forest. There's much of what you would expect from a cozy game: colorful plants, adorable creatures, and eccentric customers in desperate need of a cup of tea. After a while, however, it becomes clear that you are there to experience more than just serving tea.

Part One is the perfect beginning to a story that will stay with you for a long time to come, all set against an evocative soundtrack.

New World: Aeternum
4.5

Overall, New World: Aeternum is a fun, engrossing open-world RPG. There is an amazing amount of stuff to do, from harvesting and crafting, to combat and adventure. The main story is nothing groundbreaking but it is entertaining nonetheless. Player progression feels easy and relatively quick, but there is so much to experience that it feels like it will take a long time before I start to get bored. I particularly enjoy the interactions with NPCs; the voice acting is great and the scripts are reminiscent of old-school Fable. It's all very friendly and tongue-in-cheek much of the time.

Finally, Zelda takes the helm as the main protagonist in The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom. After decades of being an NPC or relegated to spin-offs, Zelda now features as the hero in a mainline title. But does the game do her justice?
