Infernal Radiation — Argent energy this ain’t
You’ll fight demons to free the humans, only to find out what led to them being possessed in the first place. This is what made me question whether this was meant to be a horror game or not. Whilst the atmosphere is dark and horrific, the…

Gordon Ramsay: Chef Blast — What is Ramsay doing in video games?

Tesla Force — Not an Elon Musk in sight
Stages themselves have a few different objectives, ranging from collecting a set number of items and closing rifts, to destroying spawning points and just plain surviving. There isn’t a huge amount of variety in the tasks, but stages tend…
Sackboy: A Big Adventure — Sew Fantastic
Sackboy: A Big Adventure may be a departure from the user-generated, level-fashioning focus of its forebears, but what it lacks in customization, it more than makes up for in fun.
Chronos: Before the Ashes — Maze Runner
Chronos: Before the Ashes is a solid foray into a more classic Souls formula that steps back from Gunfire’s differentiating gunplay mechanics and back into close quarter combat

Releasing Bright Memory at this time, and in the method it has, provides FYQD some well needed exposure and gears up fans of the fast and frantic gameplay the full game promises to deliver
Almost as frustrating as it is terrifying, Visage sets the new standard for horror simulators

Tools Up! — Chaotic decorating in wild houses
Tools Up! is a game I have previously played, albeit a few years back at Gamescom. The premise of the game is sort of like Moving Out, where you must quickly get into a house, but instead of moving furniture, you are looking to decorate the…
Observer: System Redux — Down the Rabbit Hole
Lazarski himself is brought to life by acting legend Rutger Hauer (Blade Runner) and although one of his final appearances on screen it’s hard to imagine a better fit for the character.
