The King's Bird's biggest triumph is certainly its aesthetic, as the game looks and plays great, but outside of that it seems to offer little appeal to anyone not interested in speedrunning. This is a game for the obsessive, the perfectionist who wants to climb the leaderboards with each run,...
Two Point Hospital is a nice timesink that won't rob you of a full night (just one more turn style), but rather it lets itself be enjoyed an hour or two at a time. Thanks to its gentle pacing it's the sort of game that's easy to slip back into,...
We began our review by comparing this game to those that came before it, like Spider-Man 2, and now finally fans have a game that can compete with the Spidey greats. It departs from the other games we've seen with its own unique take, while at the same time keeping...
Divinity: Original Sin II is one of the best RPGs we've played in a long time. It's a perfect blend of pen and paper and video game, meaning the patient player will be rewarded with deep systems and a lot of interesting storylines. There's a rare feeling of a truly...
So, it's a good-looking game with a beautiful visual style; the story and the characters are well-crafted; and the dialogue is pretty witty. It's not too hard a case to crack either, and it's nice to play an adventure that can be enjoyed by both young and old alike. The...
Yakuza Kiwami 2 is the final game in the series that's coming to the modern era of consoles, although these titles are all slowly migrating over to PC too. While this remaster doesn't really offer much in the way of surprises it does stick to the script and it should...

PES has earned itself a deserved legion of dedicated supporters over the years, fans who are prepared to look past the quirks and various oversights because the system is just so damned good. Once again that dedicated community is being served up a fine footballing feast and, if your main...
Wearing its NES-era influences proudly on its sleeve, The Messenger arrives as an instant classic for the Nintendo Switch. The action is fast and fluid, the script is witty and self-aware, and we loved the ability to time travel between 8- and 16-bit worlds. It's a stunning feat considering it's...
Don't take this as a sign that there was a lot to be down on with Strange Brigade though, because our minor gripes didn't stop us having a hoot and a half with Rebellion's fine shooter. It's simple in essence, and that's the beauty of it because you and your...
Although there's some real seriousness in the story, Guacamelee 2 never loses its witty charm, as crazy characters are constantly appearing throughout the game, and returning players will know them all too well. Although the Mexiverse doesn't reinvent anything, it didn't really need to in the first place, and it...
F1 2018 meets the needs of both those who screamed for more realism and those who only wanted to see more regular content. There's plenty of depth here, heaps of different game modes, lots of challenge, and enough strategy and tactics within the racing itself to entertain for months. Given...
