Jeff Minter is one of the most unique developers in the industry, namely for the fact he might actually be the forefather of indie gaming as a whole. It amazes me that he has managed to spend the past four decades pretty much making the same kinds of games, games...

Wales Interactive is an odd goose in today’s gaming industry. Despite dabbling with some survival horror games every now and then, the company has carved an interesting niche by heavily focusing on FMV-based adventure titles, which are essentially interactive movies where all you really need to do is pick up...

When I think of Dotemu, I usually think of them reviving long-lost arcade franchises, such as Streets of Rage and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, to a painfully pristine degree, which makes the originals feel lame in comparison. While I’m still waiting for their highly-anticipated tactical take on Metal Slug, Dotemu...

I have to say that, for the most part, remakes and remasters of older Nintendo titles have been massively disappointing on the Switch. The Super Mario 3D All-Stars collection was embarassing, the vast majority of Wii U re-releases were just mere ports with little to no improvements, and the Skyward...

Even though we, Guitar Hero widowers, have been crying about the demise of the rhythm genre post-2010, it’s not like we haven’t had some pretty good titles being released over the past years. Be it a new Taiko no Tatsujin game, an indie like LOUD, or even action-rhythm hybrids like...

The indie gaming scene loves to recreate and reboot franchises which have been since long forgotten by their original creators and/or publishers. Yooka-Laylee was a new Banjo-Kazooie. Skylar & Plux was a new Jak & Daxter. Bloodstained (not quite an indie, but point stands) was a new Symphony of the...

When you think of video games and the world of fashion, what genres come to mind? A dress-up simulator? A licensed Barbie game? Maybe a more obscure simulator where you have to manage a clothing store? I’m pretty sure something like this exists, if even lawn mowing simulators are available...

The popularity of games like Portal and The Stanley Parable has proven that first-person puzzle-platformers with a big emphasis on a smart, comedic plot are something players will always want. As long as the titles deliver in the script and gameplay departments, of course. Many games have tried to emulate...

The terribly-named “boomer shooter” trend is going strong nowadays, with some really great titles being released over the past few months. There have also been some massive duds that really show how actually hard it is to make a game in the scene feel retro and fresh at the same...

How fitting that I’m reviewing a brand new version of Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot exactly three years after I initially reviewed it on the Xbox One. Back then, I had immense hopes for what was supposed to be the ultimate action RPG, for everyone who grew up a fan of...

I love when I get to watch a movie or play a game based on an exaggerated interpretation of a local folk hero. This was one of the (many) reasons I loved watching RRR last year, knowing the main characters were actually based on real-life folk heroes fighting for the...
