Ultimately, for anyone who hasn’t yet experienced Scribblenauts, the Scribblenauts Mega Pack is without a doubt the best way to do so. For the asking price of £25, there are dozens of hours worth of content across both games. And while typing in words to see what happens can become...
After many hours of playing ADIOS Amigos, I’m still completely hooked. on trying to beat my high scores. Everything from the graphics, to the setting, and the music is just so inviting. Discovering new planets will just never get old in ADIOS Amigos and there’s always a sense of challenge...
Despite Downward Spiral: Horus Station’s faults, there’s enough here to show promise in 3rd Eye Studios. With a game or two more under its belt, the team could definitely deliver something great. Downward Spiral’s environmental storytelling works if you’re willing to look for it, but if you miss too much...
Despite the updates to some areas of FIFA 19, there’s undoubtedly going to be a large section of the FIFA community unhappy with the lack of changes in Career Mode and Pro Clubs. I’m disappointed that Career Mode hasn’t seen any significant improvements, but the on pitch changes make for...
Life is Strange 2: Episode 1 – Roads is a strong introduction to Sean and Daniel’s characters and story. Their bond is portrayed in a realistic manner, and some moments can be highly emotive. Sadly, Sean’s lack of a power makes the first episode feel less exciting than Max’s opening....
Forza Horizon 4 feels like a labour of love; a game for car lovers by car lovers. But also, it’s an engrossing experience that’s rewarding every step of the way.

The Council: Episode 4 – Burning Bridges feels like a turning point that episodes two and three have been building up to. It introduces welcome plot twists and revisits interesting topics that have been mostly at the wayside since episode one. But I fear it’s too little too late. With only...
Lacking the budget and visibility of the more mainstream WWE titles, there’s a risk that Fire Pro Wrestling World will get overlooked, at least here in the west. But give it a chance and you’ll discover an addictive, accomplished wrestle-fest that will have you grappling for hours at a time....
What remains, even still, is a sense of contradictory emotions. I do love Valkyria Chronicles 4 for many reasons. Its characters are more endearing than any I had encountered in the series thus far and its systems and mechanics are still as engaging as ever. However, there is still plenty...
Ultimately, Gift of Parthax is an enjoyable title, just not a spellbinding one. I found myself quite happily battling through fight after fight and rearranging my spelltome. However, once I had put it down, I didn’t feel a strong draw to pick it up again as I do with other...
In the end, there really isn’t anything else quite like Old School Musical. It’s a game that’s been several years in the works – and when the outcome is something as unique and special as this, I daresay every moment was worth it. Whether you’re a fan of old school...
In the end, Battle for Azeroth makes some great improvements in the levelling experience, but faults in its class design and the less rewarding Azerite system mean that overall, it takes too many steps back from Legion. It’s clear that Battle for Azeroth is an expansion that’s had a relatively...
