Rebellion has, with Atomfall, made a kind of rebellion against modern gaming storytelling which I appreciate even if at times I felt overwhelmed by all the clues I am asked to follow up. It's familiar in many ways but with a different approach to moving you and the story forward,...
So... What's bad then? The menus need to be reworked as they're bloody difficult to navigate around and lack clarity. Considering that there are 169 different Shard Cards, it feels like there is a lack of tactical and strategic depth in Fragpunk's team game setup, which Bad Guitar would need...
That said, there's still a lot of fun to be had for those who enjoy this type of genre. It's clear that the developers have put time and passion into creating a cosy adventure that doesn't hold your hand too much, and that puts a lot of emphasis on providing...
After that opening paragraph, you might have thought that this was going to be a straightforward review. But no, it was just worth getting one of the very few things I dislike out of the way. MLB The Show has the foundation to be a great sports series. It's almost...
Monolith Soft. has once again delivered for its fans, offering an expanded version that refreshes the classic and will live on alongside the rest of the series on Nintendo Switch. Let's just hope that this little gift that is Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition hasn't taken them too long to...
If I had to provide a quick summary of my time with Assassin's Creed Shadows, I would say it's a sprawling RPG with more hits than misses and that addresses a handful of the series' problems while being held back by several others. It's perhaps the most Assassin's Creed game...
In conclusion, it's a title that we didn't love. We found more weaknesses than strengths in its features, especially the narrative, which is rather lacking. For its target audience it may be a good choice, but for the average user it is a title where you will not find what...
While many narrative games have choices and branching paths, Expelled! is more like a dense thorn bush, not unlike the one that Louisa Hardcastle lands in. The narrative twists and turns in many directions, and while our unfortunate protagonist might experience some brushes along the way, it's hugely rewarding to...
2K has really picked itself up from the fiasco that was WWE 2K20. I've barely recovered, five years later. It was so disastrous that they didn't even release a game the following year. From the return with WWE 2K22, year after year they have improved the series and WWE 2K25...
I wish Wanderstop's actual gameplay elements had been given an extra coat of paint, a little more focus. It's not that I'm demanding that the game prioritise differently than it does, but even if you fall in love with the therapeutic, calm, and introspective atmosphere, you'll probably end up getting...
I can't really explain why all the time, but some games really suck you in right at the start screen before I even had time to get started. I didn't know anything about Cabernet beforehand but I could tell from the first frame that this was going to be a...
X-Out: Resurfaced is faithful to the original in most ways, both good and bad, and does what you would expect from a remake of this type of game. The game mechanics won't blow you away, but it's a classic, difficult shoot 'em up that won't leave fans of the genre...
