“There’s coffee in that nebula.” Few lines capture the spirit of Star Trek: Voyager quite like that one, and it’s a fitting starting point for Star Trek: Voyager - Across the Unknown, a strategy game that puts you in command of the…

EpiXR Games is at it again with another technically playable game with little to no instruction. Battle Puzzle 2048 - Queens of the Abyss (By the grace of the editors, now shortened to BP2048) is a reimagining of the 2048 game everybody was…

I was a huge fan of the Zuma titles back when they first released, so when Zumba - Marble Candy Rush (ZMCR, please Ed?) crossed my desk I was excited — despite the obvious copycat behaviour. A good game is a good game, right? Even when the…

Capes is a turn based strategy RPG set in a world not unlike ours. A shadowy corporation rules the streets, punishing those who try to do good whilst controlling the narrative and labelling them terrorists. The key difference? They have…

This wouldn’t be so bad if melee was viable, but it’s unbelievably janky. Swinging your bat at enemies seems to damage them, but there’s little feedback, and the same is true of enemies attacking you. I thought I was holding off a giant…

Street Racer Collection on Xbox is a nostalgic throwback that revives Ubisoft’s quirky 1990’s kart-racing series, offering a bundle of chaotic, combat-heavy racing games that are fun in short bursts but uneven as a package. As a personal…

Dave the Diver on Xbox is a vibrant, genre-blending adventure that combines deep-sea exploration with restaurant management, delivering one of my favourite experiences of recent years. It’s colourful, funny, and packed with content — but…

Dynasty Warriors has been a staple name for many people, encompassing a good portion of their lifetime. A pioneer of the Musou genre and introducing many to the Romance of The Three Kingdoms and with the new Dynasty Warriors Origins:…

Lost Eidolons: Veil of the Witch is a bold and atmospheric spin-off that reimagines the tactical RPG framework of its predecessor through a roguelite lens. Developed by Ocean Drive Studio, it trades the sprawling narrative and persistent…

Grindstone originally began life as an Apple Arcade exclusive back in 2019, then an Epic Games Store exclusive in 2022. It eventually landed on Xbox and PlayStation consoles in 2023, and by god I'm glad it did. I technically slept on this…

Sonic Racing: Crossworlds tracks a major step forward in the series. The blue blur is back with another Kart racer, and as a long time Sonic fan, I’ve been eagerly awaiting this. In my opinion, Sonic has been on an absolute tear of good…

Marvel Cosmic Invasion on Xbox is a vibrant, retro-inspired beat ’em up that combines the chaotic fun of classic arcade brawlers with a fresh tag-team mechanic, delivering a short, challenging and highly entertaining romp through the Marvel…

This is, by far, the best football game they’ve ever produced. Period.

Knight with Tactics is listed as a “puzzle & trivia” game. If the trivia question is “how fast can you get 1000 gamerscore?” then I can advise the answer is approximately three minutes. Gameplay in Knight with Tactics takes the form of…

As a child, I was absolutely obsessed with Postman Pat. To this day, I have a small Postman Pat mailvan on my collectables shelf from my childhood that has survived. According to my mother, I used to point at every Royal Mail van and lorry,…

Other changes are minor, but welcome. You no longer need to buy soap if you want to use it. Instead you have a reserve that refills over time which means you don’t have to waste money on replacing it. This is nice considering soap really…

One of the selling points of Puzzle Quest was that it was a match-3 puzzle game with an RPG style plot, and whilst it certainly has that, it’s pretty standard fantasy fare with you having to save the kingdom from an evil lord and their…
