Oddworld: Soulstorm — Viva La Revolution
When I reviewed Oddworld New ‘N’ Tasty last year, I said it felt like a world that was fully realised. Its characters, world, and setting all felt like they were at their best, and it felt as though it had finally got to spread its wings…

Warhammer 40k: Battlesector is a bit of a (Dread)snore
I've been lucky enough to play a few Warhammer games in recent years and the use of the IP often seems quite hit or miss. Some games like Total War: Warhammer are stellar uses for this IP, whilst others like Necromunda are underwhelming, to…

The second season begins where the previous one left off, with the team investigating the break in that occurred at the end of the final episode. All the previous cast are present, from bungling CEO Jeb to weird, possibly non-human Pylon.
Adios — Goodbye, Friendo
Spending an hour with a farmer: a man filled with the deepest sorrows, a man whose only friends are animals and mobsters. To be put in those shoes, to hear about his chestnut tree, his All-American Pigs, the gentle twang of his voice as he…
Story of Seasons: Pioneers of Olive Town — Alpaca your bags!

Pathologic 2 — A Strange Nightmare

Tennis World Tour 2 — Grand Slam or Double Fault ?
Looking beautiful, sounding great and with an authentic feel to it, Tennis World Tour 2 is an excellent take on the Tennis circuit whilst the addition of the card mechanic offers further strategy to a mainly action based game.
Star Wars Talisman — The Force is strong in this one.
Beautifully illustrated with plenty of the lore that makes the license so interesting but lengthy at times depending on the deck shuffle, Star Wars Talisman is more of what Talisman players love wrapped in the high quality package we’ve…

3 Out of 10 — Not as good at The Witcher 3
