Urban Myth Dissolution Centre – Mythbusters
The challenge isn’t what draws me into Urban Myth Dissolution Centre though. The characters are really enjoyable when they interact with each other. I particularly liked the moments between Azami and Meguriya, with the latter seeming to…
Cats and Seek Osaka – Find Cats in Japan
If you know Robin and I, then you'll know that we have been blasting through every single type of Hidden Object cat game that we've seen appear on our Xbox. This time, we took on Cats and Seek Osaka. This hidden cat game isn’t exactly…
Under Defeat – Helicopter hero
At a glance, this appears to be a fairly by-the-numbers shooter. It does have a neat twist in that your helicopter can pivot. Now, this isn’t the only game to do this by a long shot, but it does play into the manoeuvrability of choppers,…
I’ve spent 20 hours on Path of Exile 2 – and now I’ll never play Diablo IV again
Woah, that’s a big claim right? The undisputed champion of ARPG’s usurped by a free-to-play effort from a lesser studio? I’m sorry Diablo IV fans, but it’s true — Path of Exile 2 is bigger, badder and much more enjoyable to play, with…
Dreamcore – Sweet dreams?
Much like other games of its ilk, Dreamcore has you lost in a bizarre liminal space with the sole objective of finding your way out. You see the world through your character’s body-cam, giving the game an eerie found-footage motif that also…
Stray explores love, kindness and companionship in a world without humans
Although we’re a little late to the party, its never too late to celebrate something great. Stray tells a unique and timeless tale that is perhaps even more relevant in today's world than it was when the game first launched in 2022. In the…
Dead of Darkness – Eternal Evil
I’ll point out early that the Resident Evil influences are rampant, and at times this feels very much like a top down version of that game. You have enemies smashing through windows when you think you’re safe, doors locked by a series of…
Little Lighthouse of Horror – Calm before the Storm
I am many things, but a horror game enjoyer is not normally one of them. So imagine my utter surprise when I decided to take the reins of Little Light House of Horror, a… horror… game. To then actually enjoy it? Unthinkable. At least, I…
Songs of Silence is a beautiful, intriguing fantasy 4x auto-battler
Whilst I’ve heard a lot about them, I don’t believe I’ve ever tried an auto-battler before. Normally scrolling from side to side, these games task players with character balance and party composition prior to battle whilst the AI takes care…
Luck be a Landlord – Spin to win!
Gameplay is somewhat like the more recent Ballionaire, with you getting a set number of spins in which to reach your target. After each spin, you get to add a new symbol to your reels so that you have a greater chance of winning big money.…
