Guildlands is a confident and attractive looking, asymmetric tile‑laying city‑builder that pairs approachable turns with surprisingly deep, asymmetric, guild‑specific strategies. It’s a game that looks simple at first glance but rewards…

I'm setting off on an adventure to find a lost child. I have a best friend monster (one of six that I can hold at any one time) to protect me when I go in tall grass, and a method of capturing more. With Dokimon, I am home. Doki Monsters:…

Star Wars Unlimited has been thriving recently, and now the latest set, Ashes of The Empire, has been released. I got to get my hands on a pre-release box and duke it out at my local venue with some play-from-sealed gameplay. Pre-release…

Codenames is an iconic tabletop game that has been around for many, many years. The base game does have plenty of different cards, which are all double-sided, so you can find tons of content, however they've also released a few expansion…

In a marketplace that is ever changing and with tech giants leading the FOMO charge over earbuds, Edifier steps into the breach with NeoBuds Plus to see if they can take on the big names. A few years ago, I was stuck with a short hospital…

Gunnar offers a plethora of glasses but the Bartons stand out as one of the widest and most comfortable pairs I've reviewed so far. Featuring wide frames and lenses, the Bartons give good screen coverage for your eyes, to keep you covered…

Codenames has been around for many, many years. It's just one of those iconic games that become a staple of boardgame shelves at cafes and inside houses throughout the world. The game itself is simple; you play as a team of spies looking to…

Cozy Grove introduced us to a world of Spirit Scouts, Ghost Bears and magical creatures to meet, greet, tame and care for. Cozy Grove Camp Spirit expands the number of questlines and adds hundreds of new items while staying identical to the…

It seems you can’t go a month without seeing a Hades-esque action game on your Steam homepage. To many, the genre is already a write-off. The assumptions that Hades has done it best and the genre is oversaturated result in gamers simply…

Simulator games are often a means of doing something that you can't easily do in real life. Play tabletop games with those non-local friends. Perfectly clean your imaginary car. Table Flip Simulator? It lets you go flippin’ nuts. Table Flip…

I've played a lot of cat games in the past, especially when it comes to playing together with Robin. She's a big fan of cats and games that can be played multiplayer (with the mode or without) so it felt fitting that we checked out Musical…

That's Dope is a party game  with a simple concept: Having people react with Nope or Dope to various questions. It is incredibly easy to understand, and its an idea that - as you can imagine - can stretch to quite a few different…

Cyberpunk is absolutely filled to the brim with fashion, style and, well, exquisite  Night City vibes and now, with the new Gunnar Cyberpunk 2077 Dex glasses, you can step into that world and experience it through the eyes of one of its…

Gunnar’s glasses offer solid eye protection and remain stylish for office use or out and about That's no different when it comes to the Gunnar Haywards, which continue to deliver, sporting a grey frame, solid construction and subtle yellow…

Hades II is a full‑scale sequel that builds on everything Supergiant Games established in the original while expanding the structure, systems and world in almost every direction. You play as Melinoë, daughter of Hades and sister of Zagreus,…

I have been looking for an excuse to replay Dispatch since I marathoned it on PlayStation 5 when the last chapter launched (I know my limits, I would have gone mad waiting for each of the original releases) and reviewing this Xbox port was…

Deckbuilding roguelikes are far from undersaturated, but that doesn’t stop indie devs from putting out their take on the divisive genre. While Relief has many cards that are direct copies from Slay the Spire, it presents progression and…

I took longer to write my Hydroneer review than usual. Not because I didn’t know what to write, or that it wasn’t good. I couldn’t bring myself to write it, because it meant I would not be spending the time playing it. Hydroneer calls to me…

I don't mean to start this review off on a tangent, but I promise that this statement will make sense soon. I never finished Nier: Automata. It's one of my white whale games. I think I've played the opening at least six times now, because…

Dorfromantik begins with a single hex tile placed in the middle of an empty table, and from that moment the game invites you into a rhythm that is both relaxing and absorbing. There’s no rush, no pressure beyond the gentle tug of the…
