Some relatively minor niggles aside, Imperator: Rome is an accomplished strategy game that has launched in a solid state. It's clear that there's more still to come, and no doubt Paradox's post-launch plan involves expansions that will introduce new themes and factions, as well as even potentially new a start/end...
Overall, Giga Wrecker Alt. is a challenging but enjoyable experience, which any action-adventure or Game Freak fan will undoubtedly be pleased with. However, the consistently punishing nature of the game combined with the sometimes-cumbersome damage registration will entice frustration and may be off-putting to less versed players.
All in all, we have to say that we thoroughly enjoyed our time in Oregon. The story was interesting, the setting compelling, and the gameplay systems worked well together. There's no doubt that Bend Studio has crafted a very good game here, but a few issues with the AI and...
Image and Form has prioritised cleverly when creating this game. The studio has established a massive audience over the years, widening the horizon of the SteamWorld franchise and showing that the studio can make games in any genre you can care to think of. We wouldn't be surprised if the...
When Outward fails you, or you fail it, it stings just a bit more, in part because the game is so different from a lot of what's out there. When it shows you a beautiful sight, gives you a bit of loot after finding a well-hidden secret, shows you something...
Overall, Bow to Blood: Last Captain Standing is a really unique game with interesting mechanics that does a great job of putting you in the shoes of a sci-fi pirate. Whilst some elements can be frustrating, the majority of the experience on offer is enjoyable, which is great considering the...
Mortal Kombat 11 could have been superb, maybe the ultimate fighting game this generation, but the design decisions Netherrealm made regarding the Towers of Time, the Krypt, and the character progress are regrettable. Part of us wants to believe that this is a balancing mistake that will be corrected with...
Space Junkies is a futuristic reminder from the past. A fast-paced multiplayer shooter, that reminds us of Quake matches among friends all those years ago. A big plus is that all of it works in VR and with no nausea. All we need now is support for Aim and/or Move...
Anno 1800 is a magnificent game to look at and a testament to what an accomplished large studio can achieve. There are endless amounts of beautification and tinkering to do while your cities grow into increasing elaborate melting pots of people and ideals. Daft characters you don't quite know what...
With all that covered, let's talk bugs. We didn't really encounter a lot of major issues when playing, however, we found plenty of smaller ones. The main bug that seems to still be present is an audio bug that switches the characters' voices around and one that accidentally tip you...
All in all, God's Trigger is good, mindless fun. The solid shooting mechanics and thematically varied levels are interesting enough to drive you through the main story campaign. The final chapter, in particular, showed what OneMoreLevel could really do when it tried to mix things up, and the setup here...
We can't say that we had no fun in Generation Zero because we did, for a few hours in co-op at least. Beyond this, the game ends up outstaying its welcome and makes us think it might have been better to keep things more focused rather than trying to build...
