As mentioned in the introduction, I was excited to see what The Game Kitchen could do with Ninja Gaiden. Unfortunately, the answer is a bit disappointing. Ragebound is rock solid and feels really good in your hands, but it lacks spark, passion, X-factor, surprises. I could go on. At a...
Ultimately, what Messhof has created here is a wonderful and charming indie adventure. Wheel World is an easy to pick up and enjoyable experience that doesn't require much investment from the player, despite having a fabulous balance of fun gameplay, memorable visuals, and customisable features. For a title that you...
Tales of the Shire does many things right, but there are also fundamental things that it just doesn't quite get right, and that affects the game more than you might think. But if you're looking for a cosy life sim game to play over the summer, or if you just...
Unfortunately, there's not really much more than that. There is of course a Sandbox mode where you can place buildings without goals or restrictions, but I would have liked more streets and the feeling of a small village rather than just a 'lane' as the title of course says it...
Again, there are elements of this expansion that are excellent and true highlights for the future of Destiny 2, but there is so much surrounding them that generates no joy whatsoever. Whether that's the frustrating progression, the new destination design that makes exploration a nuisance, a lack of actual new...
If you enjoy basic horror-styled shooters, I wouldn't say this is a bad purchase at all, even though in its current form it doesn't evoke the same positive impression as its predecessor. Personally, I'm enjoying my time with the game still, despite its flaws.
As the train glides into Apple Gardens in one of the game's final cutscenes, a clear nod to the heavenly realms of Nangijala or Kivik. I am not filled with gratitude and feelings of happiness at the display of Swedish nature's bliss, as in Bramble: The Mountain King or Unravel....
At first glance, as already mentioned, Wuchang: Fallen Feathers doesn't offer much to stand out from the crowd. It's yet another Soulsborne adventure that follows the path laid out by FromSoftware and countless successors over nearly two decades. Chinese mythology and aesthetics have also been used before in other adventures,...
In the end, the rating stays at a solid seven because Shadow Labyrinth is a bit smaller than it should have been and feels a bit budget when it comes to the graphics. And while I appreciate its basic and gimmick-free gameplay, it feels a little too sparse. A little...
When I re-read this review, I sound very negative. But in fact, No Sleep For Kaname Date is still a good game. It just suffers from following two masterful games. Judged on its own merits, it's still a Japanese adventure with sky-high production values, a fascinating story, fun characters, and,...
So should you buy Patapon 1+2 Replay? I think it depends on what you're after. For me, who played the original extensively when it first came out, it's initially a delightful concoction, although I'd forgotten how much of a grind it is to progress from certain levels. However, not getting...
Nintendo clearly decided to go above and beyond in a mechanical sense in this game, and I can appreciate this but it hasn't always been for the benefit of the overall whole, and that's where I think Donkey Kong Bananza stumbles the most. If you enjoy 3D platformers, you'll have...
