Gryphon Knight Epic is a game that caters well to its niche audience, which is undoubtedly comprised of those benevolent shmup obsessed souls that funded the Kickstarter campaign. Truly, it is a game that is fiendishly challenging for those that side scroll through life, and frustratingly unfair for your average Joe....
Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons is certainly worthy of a place in your library – though maybe wait until it’s on special offer. Its short playtime (around four or five hours) provides plenty of awe-inspired entertainment, but once you’ve completed it, there’s little to go back for. The game’s gorgeous...
Everybody’s Gone To The Rapture is an amazing example of what you can do when you have a great concept and give players the room to let their imagination run wild. Offering a rich atmosphere and meaty philosophical concepts that’ll leave your mind reeling, Rapture paints a different kind of...
Altogether though, Mini Metro is really enjoyable. Its simple graphics combined with the ease of playing make it accessible to even the most casual of gamer, and the level of extra detail means that you’ll want to keep playing. The randomly-generated levels mean that no two games are ever the...
When I first delved in to Beyond Eyes I really thought it was going to be something special, and to some degree it still is. The bare-bones storytelling successfully manages to create an adventure that is both heart-warming yet crushingly depressing at the same time, which is to be applauded....
Overall, Rare Replay offers outstanding value for money. With its excellent presentation, huge list of games and a plethora of behind the scenes features, there are many hours of nostalgic fun to be had by all. Sure, some of the games have aged badly and are nothing more than a...
All in all, Galak-Z is an exciting new take on an old genre. It modernises the classic 2D shooter experience and pays homage to some much loved Japanese anime sci-fi in the process. Whilst it might prove too difficult and frustrating for some, there’s no denying that for those with...
Regardless of how you feel about “sports” games, you should really give Rocket League a punt. Easy to play and outrageous fun, this is a game that will surely enter the stable of games that you never quite get bored of no matter how much you play them. With the new Ranked...
In the end, Submerged successfully achieves what it sets out to offer: a relaxing and thought provoking exploration experience. Its a game that’s rough around the edges but grabs you from the moment you start playing, drawing you in until you’ve reached the game’s somewhat predictable conclusion. The lack of...
In the end The Swindle is an ambitious game that unfortunately just falls in at average. If you’re a die-hard fan of rogue-likes or if the premise sounds very interesting to you, it may be worth a purchase, as long as your expectations aren’t too high, otherwise it’s regrettably a game...
If you’re visiting Badland for the first time, or are a loyal player that’s curious to see how the game’s evolved on a new platform, you will not be disappointed. It’s no wonder that Frogmind won so many awards for the mobile incarnation of this game, and this holds true...
Overall, even though Legend of Kay Anniversary is a flawed game, I still found myself enjoying it a fair amount. Yes the combat is substandard, and the camera is generally awful, but it just has some of that old-school 3D platformer charm that is missing from a lot of the...
