Gloomy Eyes
Gloomy Eyes is currently available for purchase on PC (Steam), PlayStation, Xbox X/S, and Nintendo Switch.
Its endearing world, haunting enemies, and largely realised lore building are a testament to the developers’ understanding of the gaming mind. I hope this isn’t the last we see of the Hell is Us series; my instinct is that it won’t be.
Overall, The Order of Giants doesn’t bring much new to the world of Indiana Jones and the Great Circle. Instead it builds on a great foundation with an enjoyable, albeit short, additional chapter. If you enjoyed the Great Circle and want more Indiana Jones you won’t come away disappointed by...
Triangle Strategy is a well produced, well delivered game with fantastic visuals, sound and tactical gameplay. Square Enix’s trend of remastering classic Japanese Role Playing games with modern quality of life features and graphical effects is evident in this game. However, much like this text-heavy review, it isn’t a game...
Shuten Order
Will this game be a contender game of the year? Probably not as it is a bit too niche. Will it tell a compelling story and make you work for the conclusion? Absolutely. Visual novel fans who like their stories a bit darker should absolutely have this on their radar...
Bad Cheese
I thoroughly enjoyed my time with Bad Cheese and would recommend it to anyone who likes things on the weirder side of life. However, without the ability to chapter select, any missed collectibles means a completely new playthrough, which might be a turn off for completionists.
The one thing that dragged this down a little bit is that while I loved the gameplay, the story was a bit slow to start, and it picked up in the latter half of the game. This is the one area I felt it could have used a little work,...
The difficulty being occasionally uneven is a very small detraction from an otherwise fantastic game. Shinobi: Art of Vengeance is otherwise an excellent 2D action game and is a great way to kick off the influx of retro revivals Sega announced in 2023. Art of Vengeance is another must play...
Hirogami
Hirogami is a solid, polished 3D platformer that offers a good amount of replayability. Its art direction and sound design go to great lengths to build an Origami world, while its narrative falls a bit flat and doesn’t do anything interesting with the game’s themes. Basic combat is improved with...
The Knightling
The Knightling is an example of how one frustrating issue can drag an entire work down with it. There’s plenty to like here, from its charming world and narrative, to its whimsical music. However all of this and the bulk of its mechanical and game design offerings are dragged down...
Madden 26 is not perfect but is it a better game, absolutely! I like the place where EA is currently, and I am excited to see where the franchise heads in the next couple of years. I am giving Madden NFL 26 an 8, it’s a strong entry that pushes...
For veterans of the series, this remake offers a faithful return to one of the most beloved entries in gaming history. For newcomers, it’s an opportunity to experience Kojima’s Cold War masterpiece in a form that balances nostalgia with modern expectations. Whether or not that balance works for you will...
