Superhot isn’t ground-breaking. It’s a fun game with a unique concept and I was fully immersed during my playthrough, but I like to look at the replay value of anything I review, especially when it comes to FPS games. Some people might find it addictive and they might get huge amounts of...
While the game might not portray mental health care institutions in the best light, it seems obvious that the developers have tried to make something that accurately reflects the people who have to reside in them. It reminds us all that these kind of problems aren’t always evident at birth – the majority...
Overall though, I’d highly recommend Armello to fans of Hearthstone, World of Warcraft, Starcraft, D&D, or anyone wanting to branch out from traditional board games. The graphics, though not the most exceptional in terms of quality, are beautiful; the combination of 3D effects with almost anime-esque cu scenes gives the...
While That Dragon, Cancer is quite niche and definitely isn’t everyone’s cup of tea, I’d strongly advise anyone to at least have a go at it. It’s easy to play and understand, it’s visually striking, and it’ll tear your heart out and throw it away without remorse. More importantly, it’s an honest...
The end result is a game that I enjoyed, but that I also recognize as flawed. Corpse Party: Blood Drive has technical issues, and some questionable character designs, but it does so much right that these faults are easy to overlook. It is a clear love letter to J-Horror games of...
Insurgency isn’t really for the casual player. It’s not really for those of us who enjoy popping into the Crucible now and then, or those who enjoy legging it through the snowy dunes of Hoth either, and it’s definitely not reaching out to the CoD kids. Insurgency was (originally) made...
At the moment, with its fantastic gameplay but a serious lack of content, Street Fighter 5 is a solid 7/10; a good game that is a great for fans of the genre but can’t be recommended to all. Hopefully though, in a year’s time when the promised features have been...
I’d love to write more about my time playing The Witness, but so much of it needs to be experienced first hand to truly appreciate what it has to offer. It isn’t a perfect game by any means, but it’s an unforgettable experience. It nails the puzzles for the most...
Despite my misgivings of the LEGO franchise, there’s no denying their success and popularity. It may reuse an age-old template, but it’s one that works and that never fails to bring some kind of enjoyment, no matter your age or gaming preferences. Anybody can pick up and play a LEGO...
As a fan of Koei Tecmo’s Musou titles, I was surprised to find that Arslan: The Warriors of Legend was perhaps the most fun example of the genre to play as of date. It’s not really that different from those that have come before it, but the focus on story...
Firewatch may not be a game for everyone. If you’re a gamer who like nothing other than super-active games like Battlefront and Grand Theft Auto and… well… anything action oriented, this may not appeal to your personal tastes. Firewatch is something unique. It’s beautiful, engaging, and a little bit heart-wrenching at times....
Uncharted: The Nathan Drake Collection has succeeded in doing exactly what it set out to achieve: remaster some of the most acclaimed games of the previous generation and allow the uninitiated to experience them with gorgeous visuals and in 60fps. And for those who have already played them? I doubt...
