UltraGoodness gave us an acute sense of deja vu. We knew we had played something like it before, but hadn’t considered that we had actually reviewed its successor two years ago. Confusingly, UltraGoodness has been released two years after UltraGoodness 2, presumably because Rasul Mono and Ratalaika Games felt like we needed some more UltraGoodness

KEMCO are back with another retro styled JRPG, and all is well with the world again. After the last game of theirs, METRO QUESTER, decided to deviate from the usual by not being a JRPG, it is somewhat refreshing to see them going back to their wheelhouse.  I have to be honest, I am running

Farming sims and ‘cozy’ games in general are increasing in popularity – probably due to the fact that they are an escape, a way to take you out of the real world for a while which, let’s face it, is appealing now more than ever. So, we picked up a controller and entered the world

When THE FINALS went into Beta a few months back, it seems that most were surprised with the overall quality of the game. Fast, responsive, frenzied and fun, it made for a great time. Developer Embark Studios also got this memo, as, just a few months later, the game was revealed to shadowdrop at The

Full motion video is a gaming format that I have a particular soft spot for.  Recently my FMV dreams have been fulfilled with a bevy of new titles and brilliantly released games. Yet the biggest criticism towards these games is whether or not they all become a bit binary. You have a choice whether to

The best Xbox games of 2023 It’s fair to say that 2023 has been a cracking year for games and gamers. It was always going to be the case, with multiple gaming experiences pushed back from the pandemic years, but we couldn’t have guessed it would be quite as strong as it has been.  In

Play as a teddy bear and fight waves of endless waves of nightmares as you defend your owner, Ellie.

It’s so hard to defend a series like Aery. They release every few months, which is more parrot-flying than anyone could possibly need. The levels are all recycled from previous titles. And, almost without exception, they launch with a medley of bugs and glitches. When each game is so similar to the last, how are

Summary Inspired by the real glaciers in the Alps, Dungeons of Hinterberg’s Glacier overworld offers a unique and playful experience of magical snowboarding, exploration, combat, and discovery, with hidden secrets, adventures, and rewards. The Glacier overworld is non-linear and requires players to solve puzzles, complete challenges, and revisit the area at different points. Like other

We wouldn’t rush to get a library card for the Phantom Library. It moves from location to location on a whim, and the books are capable of transporting a reader to different worlds. We can only imagine how much money the Phantom Library makes from late fees.  It’s also very recently become evil, being possessed

Function Unknown, the team behind Alpha Particle, probably didn’t expect their game to be compared with James Joyce’s Ulysses, but we’re going there anyway. Twice we’ve tried to read Ulysses, and twice we’ve bounced off it. It’s clearly stupendously written and has no doubt wooshed right over our heads. But it’s just so dense, so

Hello, Hitchhiker. I’m Craig Hauser, level and combat designer at Angry Mob Games. We just released Trinity Fusion, an all-new action roguelite where the only way to save the multiverse is to end it. We’ve been working on the game for four years now, and we’re happy to finally get the game out there in
