Review | Pineview Drive

The lights are off. The house is silent. The clock is ticking, eleven past eleven, the street-lights creep through the crack in the curtain. Keyboard, mouse, and my face are illuminated by the monitor. My eyelids heavy but held open with…

Review | Turok: Dinosaur Hunter (2015)

In 1997, Acclaim published a game for the Nintendo 64 and PC: a game called, Turok by Iguana Entertainment. It was a first person shooter based on the comic book of the same name. Set in a world with roaming dinosaurs, creatures, and evil…

Review | Death By Game Show

Death By Game Show pits you, a smart human at some point in the 26th century, against a bunch of droids that seem to have decided you’re too smart for humanity, and you’ve got to be separated as to lower the average IQ.

Review | Dungelot: Shattered Lands

Cast your mind back to the years of Windows 98. Remember the game, Minesweeper? Merge that game with a dungeon crawler game. Now imagine if they had got busy and had a kid… struggling? No worries, because Dungelot: Shattered Lands will show…

Review | Blood Alloy: Reborn

Blood Alloy: Reborn is a game that doesn’t give you enough time for a break to have a breather. It’s a game with flying space flies, and a game with a constant stream of death. Sounds like a hella load of fun to me!

Review | Deathsmiles

Deathsmiles is a game that pretty much redefines the shoot-em-up genre, at least in terms of difficulty. It’s one of the most outgoing, and mystifying Shmup’s I’ve laid my eyes on. There no time to blink, the Game Over screen features a…

Review | The Flame in the Flood

The Flame in the Flood may be another survival game, but it offers a more artistic approach, a different perspective, and a beautiful soundtrack, the river is a tough ride, but the survival elements are well thought out.

Review | Blackwell 1: Legacy

Ever since I was a child, I’ve loved those pixellated, point-and-click adventure games, such as “Simon The Sorcerer” or “Monkey Island”. Hours of fun would be spent trying to solve riddles, or puzzles; so it’s a surprise to me that I’ve…

Review | Blackwell 2: Unbound

So here it is, the second instalment of the series, Blackwell 2: Unbound, and I’m wiggling my fingers in anticipation to have a good follow up game running on my iPhone. The last episode was good, a touch short, but it was good.…

Review | Blackwell 3: Convergence

The previous two games have been fantastic, with improvements being made to both gameplay and graphics, and with both of these improvements actually making the game better rather than worsening it, it’s a delight to play.

Review | Blackwell 4: Deception

In the reviews of the previous entries in the series I’ve almost always opened with comments on how the art style has updated, Blackwell: Deception is the first game where it is simply refined, rather than leapt forward.

Review | Way of the Samurai 3 (PC)

Way of the Samurai 3 is a surprisingly big game, with a ton of options to build your Samurai's personality among the in-game AI. Way of the Samurai 3 is the third part to a four part series of which, the adventure began back in 2002 when…
