All in all, Act of Aggression is not half-bad in its attempt at bringing back the days of the classic RTS. The base is solid if not entirely novel. The single-player campaigns act as competent tutorials but offer neither the storytelling nor the structure to keep you interested in them....

For those of you that don't have a PlayStation Vita and aren't planning on getting one, Tearaway Unfolded is of course the only option in front of you, and in that case it's really not a bad option to have. The wonderful world of papercraft has its own very particular...

Fortunately, Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain is a very addictive game, so a few hours of repetition doesn't cause too much pain. Whether completing tense missions, gathering upgrades for your base, or kidnapping soldiers (or mountain goats for that matter), it's simply brilliant entertainment that's good for dozens...

There's plenty to admire in Avalanche's open-world adventure and we had a good time in this literal sandbox, and even several shades of dust and a few technical shortcomings (frame-rate drops during sandstorms, some mislabelled button prompts) weren't enough to ruin our enjoyment. This is a vivid and engaging world,...

Nintendo should ideally adapt Super Mario Maker for Nintendo 3DS and, eventually, NX, as this is a title that would then become a platform/service accessible to many more players. It managed to surprise us when we realised that once again we were having fun, playing the same old Mario; only...

Although there aren't really any new features when compared to its PC predecessor, Broken Sword 5 on PS4 and Xbox One is undoubtedly a must-have game for fans of the genre, especially these days when there's not so many adventure games on the horizon. Engaging, well written and stylish, if...

Indeed, cohesive is the key word here. Once again Mike Bithell has crafted a focussed and purposeful game. There's elegance in its design, and the constant stream of bite-sized challenges will keep you engaged until the credits roll. Is there enough to keep you coming back for more? It's hard...

When you factor in buying and playing this game before the end of the year gains you free downloadable tokens for the three other Gears games - including side-title and prequel Judgement - to download and play when BW kicks in this autumn, it pushes this from being a great...

It's a very easy game to recommend to both puzzle and Lara Croft fans. We ran the game on an iPhone 6, so we can't comment on its performance on other devices, but it is the reason why our usually stellar battery has drained part way through the day as...

At the end of the day I'd recommend this to everyone. Regardless of whether you've played Mega Man before, or even if you're in need of a good history lesson. It's doubtful that there are any other 8-bit games that feel as good and current after this amount of time,...

Misfire? We say no. It'll only not be enjoyed by any who have sworn off QTEs or Heavy Rain-like titles as non-games unworthy of their time. Yes, Until Dawn feels like an interactive movie or horror series, but it's a very enjoyable watch - and play - while it lasts.

One has to credit Frozenbyte for their courage to renew the series even when everything didn’t go quite according to plan. Trine 3: Artifacts of Power is still as pretty as ever and a joy to play especially with two friends. The third dimension hasn’t been implemented without its issues,...
