The King Is Watching comes to us from relative unknowns Hypnohead, but is published by the figurative giants tinyBuild. To give you a quick idea of what it's about, Imagine Lord of the Rings, but in this instance the all-seeing eye is not…

EpiXR Games is at it again with another technically playable game with little to no instruction. Battle Puzzle 2048 - Queens of the Abyss (By the grace of the editors, now shortened to BP2048) is a reimagining of the 2048 game everybody was…

I was drawn to playing Get Bit at The Dice Box King's Lynn on a recent visit due to how cute the meeples looked. That's not normally something that I really consider, but these meeples were little divers, with detachable limbs, which just…

It’s not often that you test something which requires you to quite literally sit on the sofa and put your feet up, but for the Krafted Couch Charger that’s exactly the idea. Featuring a wireless charger built into a silicone frame that is,…

Disney’s relatively new Star Wars: Unlimited TCG may have flown under the radar for some, as It certainly had for me, but I was delighted to have a chance to learn and play with the new A Lawless Time cards and build a deck to play against…

I was a huge fan of the Zuma titles back when they first released, so when Zumba - Marble Candy Rush (ZMCR, please Ed?) crossed my desk I was excited — despite the obvious copycat behaviour. A good game is a good game, right? Even when the…

Capes is a turn based strategy RPG set in a world not unlike ours. A shadowy corporation rules the streets, punishing those who try to do good whilst controlling the narrative and labelling them terrorists. The key difference? They have…

Darktide’s new Hivescum DLC was recently released, featuring a brand new class that features a bit of a twist compared to other classes: The ability to craft your own stimulants to enhance yourself mid-fight.  The Hivescum class focuses on…

Kingdomino on iOS is a digital adaptation that feels both faithful and familiar to me, mainly because I’ve had a particular fondness for this game ever since playing it with my girls when they were very young. Seeing it now on a tablet and…

I was a really big fan of Catstronauts when we played it — there was just enough on to keep it interesting, and the way that it promoted co-operative gameplay felt both incredibly modern and refined. That said, there were two main issues,…

Mindbug x King of Tokyo is a surprising and yet extremely well-suited crossover. Richard Garfield has spent decades refining two very different strands of design: the tight, tactical cardplay of Magic: The Gathering and the big, swingy,…

Sonic the Hedgehog is a household name that has stood the test of time and now, new from Cableguys, he can stand with your phone in your home as well, with the new Mini Sonic Holdem.  The classic Sonic the Hedgehog the Mini Holdem’ can be…

Cute games are something I love, and Catstronauts fits the bill of being both cute and being a game where we all work together — which is a big plus. This co-op, two to four player board game has everyone becoming a space cat, equipped with…

The actual game has you placing tiles on a grid that will be used to attack your enemy with the goal of reducing the character themselves to zero health. At first you’ll have a few empty slots and a couple of items to place, but after a few…

Valkyrie: A Black Orchestra Game, designed by Philip DuBarry and published by Tabletop Tycoon, is a fascinating return to one of the most thematically charged cooperative games of the last ten years — but this version has a sharper focus, a…

Forgive Me Father 2, developed by Byte Barrel and published by Fulqrum Publishing, is a blood-soaked, Lovecraftian boomer shooter that builds on the foundations of its predecessor with sharper combat, deeper madness mechanics, and a more…

This wouldn’t be so bad if melee was viable, but it’s unbelievably janky. Swinging your bat at enemies seems to damage them, but there’s little feedback, and the same is true of enemies attacking you. I thought I was holding off a giant…

For the first time in what seems like years of reviewing remakes, rehashes and “classic compilations” I am delighted to report that Mortal Kombat: Legacy Kollection is more than just a cash-grab retro compilation — it’s a curated,…

If, like me, you’re a fan of cool dinosaurs in games then Deathground might have been on your radar over the last few weeks. Ever since I played the Turok series for the first time I've been hooked and Deathground sounded interesting enough…
