Video Game Features

I've been lucky enough to play a few Warhammer games in recent years and the use of the IP often seems quite hit or miss. Some games like Total War: Warhammer are stellar uses for this IP, whilst others like Necromunda are underwhelming, to…

Quantum League is an FPS where timing matters more than your aim. This arena shooter gives players a chance to work with their past and future selves in order to take down opponents and score big.

To be completely honest, I have never played Frog Fractions before, because why would I have? I hate fractions. I am not a big fan of frogs, why would I want to play a math game. As it turns out, Frog Fractions has some bad branding, as you…

As a part of my IGF judging, I got to take on an early demo of Pill Baby — a story-based action game about an immigrant who has just moved cities to take on a new, and somewhat average job.  As a new person to this world, you seem to not…

Little Nemo and the Nightmare Fiends takes the magic of the comic and turns it into a fun-filled platformer packed to the brim with wonderment and awe. Exploring Slumberland as Nemo and friends certainly seems like a dream come true!

Having played the demo last year, I was excited to see more of what Developers Rockfish had to offer with their space shooter darling. Whilst their first outing had a focus on roguelike elements, Everspace 2 swaps this out for an open…

Hidden Deep takes place in a remote, submerged, deep sea mining rig with the title screen depicting a small submarine transiting your crew to the facility. The eerie silence of the rig is pretty apparent and visually the style reminds me of…

AnShi is a wild game about an alien who rides its hoverboard through vast, exotic landscapes in order to activate memories from its ancestors’ past.

Cyberpunk 2077 delivers an awe-inspiring showcase of a semi-believable future filled with the grunge of holographic advertisements and the gritty realism of greed rendered into a tangible form.

2020 was a year where I did not play as many video games as previous years. It was a year of staying home, a year of lots of work, and a year of lots of spending time on the couch not thinking about much. Despite being a strange year for…

Even within such an eventful year, one can still see the brightest of lights shining through — here are my top 5 video game picks for 2020!

Hello hello. Blimey, 2020 has been about as far from a barrel of monkeys as it could be — I'm positively thrilled to put this calendar to bed and hopefully, with it, all of the junk that's been snowballing over the last five years. Anyway,…

Most of the games here won’t demand too much of your time. They’re easy to put down and pick right back up. They’ve left a lasting impression on me.

Goodbye 2020 and thanks for all the games!

Whilst the likes of Gears Tactics, SUPERHOT: Mind Control Delete, and Deadly Premonition 2 all hit the spot, there were still a handful of titles that outdid them. So here we are with my five favourite games of 2020.

Create a lasting legacy in Medieval Dynasty, where the consequences of choice you make fall squarely on your descendants' shoulders.

Bring dead worlds back to life, fight off furry foes, and bring life to a desert.

Shift between four heroes in a tough showdown against a mind-controlling final boss in Awry. The four legendary heroes have made their way through the almost endless dungeon and are finally facing the creature behind all the recent terrors;…

Here’s where the clever part comes in. Your opponents will attack so long as there is a target in their attack range, regardless of who it is. You can use your attack and movement cards to damage opponents and get yourself to safety, but…

Whilst trying hard to stand out from the crowd, Due Process doesn’t quite do enough (at release) to really show off what a great game it could be. Whether it’s the visuals with its mixture of pixel art and 3D models or its unique features…
