A Quiet Place: The Road Ahead has the advantage of having one of the best Astral Horror properties at its back, and in a time when horror is having a moment it couldn't have better timing. When I say Astral Horror, I mean that A Quiet Place…

When System Shock came out in 1994, I really was too young to appreciate it. At just 11 years old, I remember popping the CD into my Pentium 166 (MMX) powered Hewlett Packard PC and shortly after, I was absolutely soiling myself. Not only…

Repetition is the greatest issue with Funko Fusion. Some of the puzzles make quite creative use of the game’s mechanics, but they tend to get used over and over again. The combat is the real issue though. You’ll be fighting so many enemies…

Accurate title! In the world of Nobody Wants to Die, absolutely nobody wants to die. This hardboiled sci-fi noir invites you into a world where death functionally doesn’t matter — providing you can afford it. As a game, the story is the…

We are always on the lookout for new games to play, in local co-op, that our eight year old will enjoy. She’s one of those kids that likes playing with others and finds video games more fun with friends. When I downloaded Crossy Road Castle…

This works in the same way as Pac-Man, with you running around mazes and collecting soul shards whilst avoiding monsters rather than ghosts. The camera is much closer in, and some of the monsters have different behaviours, but at its heart…

Whilst none of the trucks seem to handle differently, they’re all visually distinct. Scratch Attack has a full on cat motif and Demo Derby looks like a giant stock car. They look nicely detailed and all have their own unique special move…

The cats have found their way to Rome and have taken all the color! Hidden Cats in Rome is another game in the Hidden Cats series, which has you looking to find a bunch of cats and restore color to their world. This time the city is — you…

A couple of months ago when I previewed Empire of the Ants, I was excited by several things — the amazing graphics, the focus on gamepad based control and the kind of things the game had me doing. There were reservations though — a couple…

If you solve additional, hidden puzzles, you’ll discover other tapes that reveal more about what was going on behind the scenes of the TV show you’re exploring. Reaching an end to the game isn’t too challenging, but getting an actually…

Hidden Cats is a series of games that feature cats hidden all around a city. It’s sort of like Where’s Waldo, but with hundreds of cats. In Hidden Cats in Paris, the formula is the same — there is a giant map themed around Paris, full of…

Some games are great because they live up to their epic ambitions and blow audiences away with the scale of their vision. Other games are great because they somehow capture a moment in time, a feeling or an idea — even though the execution…

The real point of the game is to enjoy the absolutely absurd town and its locals. As you explore you’ll come across all sorts of odd citizens, from business rivals Tiny Tom and Big Ron locking horns over whether big or tiny pies are better,…

Frustratingly you’ll frequently scour the map to find a key or a shovel which unlocks the way out only to be told that now you need something else to bring back to the same area. It’s like a constant series of arbitrary-feeling fetch…

Indika is an experience that I’d wager good money on you having not had in another game before. The story is unique and handled in an interesting way and the world is wonderfully off-kilter with all sorts of strange scenes.

Let’s School is a game where you can restore a school to its former glory. You have to manage it well so that your students can pass their exams and achieve their dreams in later life! Everyone has a different experience at school. In Let’s…

I am not sure why I didn’t expect Rugrats: Adventures in Gameland to not feel like a challenging, retro platform and instead to be some sort of newer age game featuring the loveable babies from my childhood, but here we are! This game feels…

When Frostpunk launched back in 2018 it became an instant classic by fusing together base-building, society management and an almost-hopeless post-apocalyptic setting. Frostpunk 2 manages to build on every element of that as it challenges…

You’ll enter the dungeon with a small backpack and a handful of basic equipment, normally a weapon, shield and a consumable item. You’ll move around a node-based map, finding treasure and events as well as enemies to confront. Combat is…
