Despite a few slight missteps, Aven Colony does a lot right and offers a city building experience with a difference. The basic premise is sound, and the execution is largely a success. In certain key areas, it lacks the kind of nuance that dedicated genre fans thrive upon, but newcomers...
Tacoma
A thought-provoking game then, that's perhaps not up there with the likes of Fullbright's own Gone Home or Giant Sparrow's What Remains of Edith Finch, but it's certainly worth a playthrough if the genre and subject matter appeals to you. It is said the devil is in the detail, but...
By all means, Deadcore is a competent game. First-person parkour feels more natural than third-person, but simple things like the lack of a mantle mechanic and the weapon being flatter than a pancake mean failing becomes an annoyance to replay sections rather than a blessing. No doubt Deadcore works better...
There wasn't much to dislike about Redeemer, other than a few annoying issues with dodging and a desire for a touch more variety, and for the reasonable amount of time it stayed with us (between 10 and 15 hours), we had fun brawling and shooting our way through this tale...
We played the PS4 version, which according to Thunder Lotus Games, will receive an update that aims to solve some of the issues we encountered. However, we can only review the experience we had with the game as it was presented for review. Sundered has a lot of good elements,...
Fans of turn-based strategy titles who are looking for an individualistic take on the genre should look no further than Antihero. Its Victorian setting and sketch art visual style hold plenty of charm and its gameplay remains bracing and addictive, as you're always forced to rethink your strategy during the...
Pyre
Overall, Pyre is another strong game from the creative minds at SuperGiant Games. It's a unique experience and while it may at times feel a bit overburdened with text and the nature of the rites may not appeal to all RPG players, Pyre manages to stand out as a game...
Super Cloudbuilt is quite possibly the best parkour-esque experience on the console right now, and it's a joy to play. The narrative falls well short and that's unfortunate because it could have scored higher otherwise, but what we're left with is a mechanically sound and fun experience that speedrunners are...
An early version of this review was published in error, and it has since been updated.
Had there been more variety to scenarios, perhaps a few changes in how you interact with the world over time, a further delving into the world itself, more exploration options, or maybe a bit more characterisation either in-battle or between, Children of Zodiarcs might have pulled farther ahead of its...
Prideful Sloth has painted a wonderful world full of adventure and things to find (there's a bunch of cats to look for, to name one thing), but unfortunately, there's not quite enough substance beyond that to hold our interest over an extended period of time. A more fleshed out narrative...
All told, Tiny Trax is a fun little racer if you've got a VR headset and not enough nausea-free games to go with it. It's lightweight in terms of content, but what's there is charming thanks to simple and accessible racing, with striking backgrounds and zany track design sealing the...
