Revenge of the Savage Planet is the whackiest kind of fun!

Matthew Smail May 28, 2025 0

I never played Journey to the Savage Planet, but if my experience with Revenge of the Savage Planet is anything to go by, I may well have missed out. Revenge of the Savage Planet is the product of Raccoon Logic, a newly minted developer…

Deep Deep Deep Nightmare – Charmingly Simplistic

Rhys Davis May 28, 2025 0

If your parents were anything like mine then, as a kid, they used to tell you various little white lies that you can still remember even now. You know the ones: Don't go swimming thirty minutes after you've eaten, carrots are good for your…

Pokémon Trading Card Game Destined Rivals Build and Battle Box – A Player’s Perspective

Rhys Davis May 27, 2025 0

I've played many, many, TCGs in my time. My main card game used to be Cardfight!! Vanguard, run by Bushiroad, before switching over to Magic: The Gathering in 2023. I've also indulged in Yu-Gi-Oh!, Flesh and Blood, Weiss Schwarz, Dragon…

Panzer Corps 2: Frontlines – Bulge is a great place to start your PC2 journey

harley9699 May 27, 2025 0

It's odd to instantly go from the German Blitzkrieg to the American (defense ). All new equipment troops, and strategies, but, "Hey... let's just throw you into the deep end".

The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring Trick-Taking – Chapter-based Hobbit

Jupiter Hadley May 23, 2025 0

I am going to admit, this is the second Lord of the Rings board game I have played, and I have still not read the books or seen the movie. However, The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring Trick-Taking Game, is a simple to follow,…

Monster Train 2 – To hell and back

Rob Covell May 22, 2025 0

If you played the original, Monster Train 2 is more of that but with a few new twists. For the uninitiated though, your job is to complete eight fights on the way to the centre of heaven, picking up new cards and abilities between each…

Chains of Freedom is a tense and highly intriguing tactical RPG that is well worth your time

Matthew Smail May 22, 2025 0

Where once the squad-based tactical shooter was a rarity, I feel that these days I’ve been inundated with them. This is a good problem to have as long as new entries to the genre, such as Chains of Freedom, pass the simple “is it as good as…

Pax Augusta is a (mostly) pleasing old-school city builder

Matthew Smail May 21, 2025 0

While I much prefer the challenge of reviewing console-based strategy games, the dedicated Romanophile in me does occasionally surface in order to pick up the occasional, exceptional PC based strategy game. The last of these was 2019’s…

KIBORG – Updates Needed

Rhys Davis May 20, 2025 0

Roguelikes used to be somewhat of an enigma to me. I never used to see the appeal of smashing my head against a wall over and over to progress in small increments. Then I got shown some very good ones, such as Slay the Spire, Cult of the…
