Troublemaker: Raise Your Gang has you balancing fight clubs and highschool.
If you are a fan of the fighting style in Sega's Yakuza series, then indie game Troublemaker which takes inspiration from Yakuza but allows you to play as a highschooler, might be one to check out. Troublemaker: Raise Your Gang is an…
Shotgun King: The Final Checkmate is the smartest game in the room
I know that we're a little late with this one, but it's hard to not want to tell somebody about Shotgun King: The Final Checkmate after you've played it... and, I'm guessing, you've maybe not played it. So now I'm going to tell you why you…
Don Salmon is a platformer stuffed with fish-bouncing, air-dashing action
With so many platformers coming out every year, it's hard for one to stand out. Don Salmon manages to do that by fusing elements of both horizontal and vertical platformers with a beautiful lilac and green-led colour palette. Godot Engine,…
Toy Tactics is approachable, wobbly miniature-strategy
Toy Tactics is a tabletop twist on real-time tactics, complete with goofy physics, and pieces that wobbly rather than march. The biggest problem with a game genre having had its heyday a few decades back is that there's always a massive…
Night of Frights! Game brings Five Nights at Freddies to your kitchen table
Five Nights at Freddies is a popular game that has done well over the years, so of course getting a board game adaptation is something that makes sense and can keep interest and can continue to bring the game to life! Night of Frights! Game…
Seven Dwarfs: Legends Untold pits four players against the forces of evil
Co-op roguelite meets one of the Brothers Grimm's best-known stories in Seven Dwarfs: Legends Untold. Blick, Flick, Glick, Snick, Plick, Whick and Quee, or the verb-y ones, are out though. Instead Surprised Turtles' dwarves have names that…
MG-X Pro iPhone adds an Xbox Controller to your Phone
We have previously reviewed the MG-X Pro Android controller, which allows you to level up your gaming experience on your Android device by attaching the controller. Now, we're here to talk about if the iPhone version of the game is as well…
No One Lives Under the Lighthouse – Solitude
Items aren’t where you left them, machines are mysteriously damaged, and something keeps knocking on doors. I can’t go into too much detail for fear of spoiling a lot of what happens, but suffice to say that you rapidly descend into…
Sunday Gold – Style over substance
The characters are great fun as well. Sally’s tough but calm demeanour comes across in great contrast to Gavin’s skittish, panicky nature. They come across like over-the-top cockney caricatures, and for the most part, are very well written…
Voidtrain – On rails in endless space
Voidtrain is an on-rails survival simulator where your train is flying through the mystical void. You pilot the titular Voidtrain through space, collecting debris to research and build modules for your train to go faster through space and…
Mr Lovenstein Presents: No Context – a comic filled guessing game
Our board game group has been playing a lot of guessing games as of late — games that allow us to use cards or tiles to guess things that are going on. Mr Lovestein Presents: No Context is one of these guessing games, where you must place…
Under the Warehouse – What the hell is going on?
At its core, Under the Warehouse is a puzzle game where you need to find the appropriate items to unlock the next area and move forward. Interestingly, nothing is explained to you and you have no objective markers, meaning you have to…
Nine Sols combines a beautiful futuristic setting with deflection driven Sekiro-style combat.
Take on the role of Yi in their arduous journey to take revenge on the Nine Sols, a mysterious group of beings that have built a whole world around their own preservation. Did you play Sekiro? Well, whether you have or haven't it's become a…
Speed Crew has you fixing cars against the Furious Family
Our house is a big fan of local, co-op games. Especially ones like Moving Out or Overcooked, where there is a frantic, need to get things done as soon as physically possible. That’s why I jumped at the opportunity to play Speed Crew - a…
Diablo IV – Hell of a time
Combat is as satisfying as ever, and with the much tighter camera angle, things feel significantly more visceral. Strikes from all sides look suitably vicious, and spells and powers pop off all over the screen, wiping out swarms of lesser…
Astro Duel 2 is a refreshing arena shooter.
There are a lot of top down, arena fighting games that can have you facing off against another player, controlling your own spaceships. Many of them have a pixel style, upgrades, and differences between the different machines. However,…
Demon Spore places you right at the heart of a deadly contamination breach
I don't know about you, but one thing that I definitely don't want to find myself having to do the next time I'm at the office is fighting my way out of a laboratory that's being overrun by an expanding, deadly lab-created viral horror born…
Darkest Dungeon 2 – Misty Mountain
Combat works in the same way as it did before, with your four heroes taking on up to four enemies. Position in your party matters, as certain attacks can only be used if you are on the front line, whilst others require a character to be in…
Warhammer 40,000 Battlesector – Orks
Whilst there are a few other units for you to choose from here, I feel that there are a few really missed opportunities. I certainly wouldn’t expect every model from the tabletop to be included, but the lack of Squighog Boyz feels like a…
Sandwich Masters: Bread Roles brings characters into the game
Previously, we took a look at Sandwich Masters — a card game where you make sandwiches and try to fulfill orders. Recently, I sat down with the expansion Sandwich Masters: Bread Roles which introduces characters into the game, as well as a…
