Dead by Daylight continues to churn out content, and as you may have read from my previous review of DbD and its Five Nights at Freddy's chapter, I am a huge, huge fan of this franchise. I'll do my best to set my bias aside in this review,…

I think it’s the sort of game where you need to go into it blind and experience all of its insanity with as little background knowledge as possible.

The original Frostpunk was a masterclass in moral compromise. It asked players not just how they would survive, but what they were willing to sacrifice to do so. Now, Frostpunk 2 arrives with a colder heart and a broader scope, trading the…

There’s a certain atmosphere that only games like S.T.A.L.K.E.R. can conjure — a blend of dread, decay, and desperate survival that’s as much about mood as it is mechanics. With the recently “enhanced” S.T.A.L.K.E.R: Legends of the Zone…

Who doesn’t love a cozy citybuilder? These are the kind of games that let you zoom out, take a breath, and slowly shape a world of your own. On Xbox Series X, three recent entries into the genre — The Wandering Village, Kingdoms and…

That's right, it's another hidden object cat game. This time Hidden Cat Outlaws takes us to the wild, wild west — think Sheriff offices, carts dotted around, lots of sand.  As with most hidden-animal games, there's a lot of familiar…

Warhammer 40,000: Darktide has just had a brand new face let loose on its dismal, lawless world and who better to bring that law back into the light than the Emperor’s lawbringers: The Adeptus Arbites.  Arbites, for those unfamiliar, are…

If you looked at my recent coverage and asked me if I only play hidden object cat games, I would tell you that the reason I'm covering so many is because they're the main thing that Robin and I play together on slow mornings! Meow Moments:…

Story-based adventure games have always been something that interests me. While I usually prefer to play more high octane shooters and others, there is always something very comforting about playing a game intended to be taken at a walking…

There’s no denying that Empyreal makes a strong first impression. From the moment you step into its fractured, floating world, it’s clear that this is a game with vision. The skybound setting — all shimmering islands, ancient ruins, and…

Well now, Splitgate 2 has certainly come out to one hell of a reception eh? Ian Proulx, CEO of 1047 Games who develops Splitgate 2, came onstage while at Summer Games Fest and boldly told us that the FPS market is stale, and he's sick of…

Returning to the North Sea oil rig that served as the haunting stage for Still Wakes the Deep, the Siren’s Rest DLC offers a more introspective, subdued experience than its predecessor.  Where the base game was a masterclass in…

The Sinking City Remastered, played on Xbox One, is an atmospheric detective adventure that blends Lovecraftian horror with open-world exploration and investigative gameplay. Developed by Frogwares, this remastered edition refines the…

I'm going to open with a clear message here. Wuchang: Fallen Feathers is honestly one of the best games that I have played this year. I came into it a bit apprehensive, being a massive Dark Souls fan, and was wondering how this would hold…

Have you ever had a moment in your life that you look back on and thought about how you could have done things differently? If you were given the chance, would you want to see how much your life would change if you altered a significant…

Moorhuhn Kart 2 - Or Crazy Chicken Kart 2, as it’s called outside of Germany — came to me after a conversation with a friend. They mentioned that Moorhuhn was very popular in the early 2000’s, and after some digging, I found some quite…

Nico Saves The State slid into my inbox this week, and it initially made me suck air between my teeth. I'll be one of the first to admit that puzzle games, platformers and me usually don't mix. I can rarely handle anything more complicated…

Some hidden object cat games simply have you trying to find as many cats as possible. Hidden Kittens: Kingdom of Cats is one of those types of games, where you are presented with a large, primarily devoid of color picture and need to just…

From the outset, Blades of Fire feels unashamedly old-school. It opens with a cutscene that makes little to no sense, and the game takes an awfully long time to bring its memorable, interesting storyline to bear.  That’s not really what…
