You work as a night guard for a museum, due to open in a few days to display the paintings of the recently murdered Malachai Grey on the island of Mirlhaven. Malachai had an impressive array of artwork of all different genres, but of…

The story goes that having only just built up their relationship, Holmes and Watson are thrust into a world-spanning case that begins with something as simple as a missing person. Starting out in London, the pair end up in Scotland,…

Trenches is trying something relatively unique, on a conceptual level. A psychological horror game set in the trenches of the First World War. I can’t understate how appealing that concept is, how it could be such a fantastic vehicle for…

CyberHeroes Arena DX understands the mechanics of the genre leader, in that you simply move your character around the area whilst they automatically fire weapons. Enemies spawn in and move towards you, intent on your death. In that regard,…

Let's Build a Zoo challenges you to not only build a functional, profitable zoo, but to also build a responsible one. Whether you take that challenge though is entirely up to you — and it caters to you even if you don't. How does the…

Now, I don’t want to spoil too much here, as some of the puzzles ahead of you are quite interesting. The first one certainly isn’t one of them, but it does teach you that the way to progress is to find a skull and place it in the receptacle…

Marsupilami Hoobadventure is a platformer that wears its inspirations on its sleeve, but manages to create a clever twist of genre-defined mechanics that sets it apart.

The choices of date are quite diverse, representing people from many walks of life, including LGBT, those with disabilities, and neurodivergent individuals. It’s nice to have all different types of people here, with many characters showing…

As a system, it’s quite elegant, and I initially quite liked the back-and-forth of a combat encounter. Hits feel weighty from both sides, and the fantastic animation lends a visceral feeling to the battle. The problem is that every fight…

Still, the actual mechanics are pretty simple. Pick up the rubbish, scrub a brush on stains, pick up bits of wood to repair holes, and fix broken tables and chairs. There’s a degree of enjoyment in this aspect of the game, as regardless of…

The Game of Life is one of those classic board games that I feel like every American house has in their collection. I fondly remember playing the board game with my cousins as a young child. Now, though, everything has a digital version, so…

LEGO Bricktales expands on the original formula that started with LEGO Builder’s Journey — what if you could actually build things in a LEGO game — and adds a fully realized story. With new mechanics and a vast array of building puzzles,…

2022 eh. Bit of a mixed year, but I dare say a modest improvement over the last few. Music and movies absolutely crushed it this year, so many quality releases for all tastes. Even the pandemic decided to take a smaller role in the year’s…

Sonic Frontiers will not be receiving an award tonight.

Before going anywhere with this review, I should point out that the vast majority of this game was created by one person, and that in itself is an impressive achievement. The fact that The Entropy Centre is also a really well made product…

The premise is simple. You are in a safe room in a Resident Evil adjacent survival horror game, and you need to fit all the items from your box into your inventory whilst also topping off your health and reloading your weapons.

As you navigate the rooftops of Paris via some light platforming, you’ll be confronted by small groups of enemies. This is somewhat at odds with the TV show, but I suppose something needs to break up the jumping and running segments of the…

Many of the stages contain threats, such as generic enemies that chase you, or traps that will instantly dispatch you, sending you back to the beginning of the level. These things can be fine if done well, but Temple of Horror just feels…
