Rise of the Triad: Ludicrous Edition – Making a monks meal of it
For the most part, Rise of the Triad: Ludicrous Edition is the exact same game, but at a much higher resolution and with an uncapped framerate, which is a good thing considering how insanely fast the gameplay is. That does mean that the…
Antstream Arcade – What is this? A streaming service for ants?!
There’s a lot on offer with Antstream Arcade. Currently there’s over 1400 games on the service, all of which are legitimately available through licensing deals. That’s a hell of a lot of games, and they stretch across a fairly significant…
Moving Out 2 feels like a huge upgrade
It is not a secret that I am a huge fan of local multiplayer games, especially ones that can be played with younger children like my daughter Robin, so that the whole family can join in on the action. After nearly 100 percenting Moving Out,…
Sea of Thieves: Voyage of Legends – Finding treasure
Given the large variation in events, voyages and fortune combinations; the replayability for those enjoying what Sea of Thieves has to offer is fairly high and subsequent games will keep players entertained
The Repair House – Fix a mixer
Anyway, you’ll receive a number of products, ranging from coffee grinders and pipe cutters to games consoles and arcade cabinets, and your job will be to replace broken parts and occasionally clean up or repaint them. Get them fixed and…
Little Friends: Puppy Island lets you create a pup paradise
As a child, I remember playing Nintendogs on Nintendo DS. Caring for my own virtual dogs when my parents wouldn’t let me have the commitment of raising one in the real world. Little Friends: Puppy Island has the same sort of vibes, but…
Shattered Heaven – Shattered Heaven is a place on Earth
Shattered Heaven does the classic RPG thing of asking you to fight monsters, get stronger, and kill a god. I had a good old time with the Shattered Heaven preview build earlier in the year. Mechanically it was quite excellent and the art…
Jurassic World: The Legacy of Isla Nublar gives you the chance to succeed where InGen failed
If you've ever watched any of the Jurassic Park series and thought to yourself, "I could do this much better," then Jurassic World: The Legacy of Isla Nublar might just be one for you. The much-loved Jurrasic Park series is one that's…
Viewfinder – Snapshot solutions
In each puzzle, you use photographs to manipulate the environment in order to reach a teleporter. By holding up a polaroid photo in front of you and clicking, that photo becomes part of the world. It’s hard to describe just how amazing this…
Popmaster Card Game challenges your pop music knowledge
Now, I am not someone who knows much trivia generally, but I do find it fun to try out trivia games when hanging out with my friends! The Popmaster Card Game is a pocket-sized trivia game that focuses on pop music. I like listening to pop…
A Little to the Left: Cupboards and Drawers – Bang tidy!
Now we have the Cupboards and Drawers DLC, which implies that you’ll be tidying and organising cupboards and drawers. There are actually far more different things to organise in the thirty included levels, but there are a lot of closets and…
Layers of Fear – Scary Content Creators
Rather than being a direct remake of the two games, Layers of Fear tries to tie the events of these games together. This rerelease of sorts wraps the games into an overarching narrative of a writer who has been sent to an isolated…
Pan Am The Game challenges you to build routes faster than Pan Am themselves, for profit
For a game called Pan Am The Game you'd not be silly to think that you might be controlling the titular company as they expand their network of flights across the world, however here you and up to three others have to outpace Pan Am for…
A Building Full of Cats – Hello Kitty
There are roughly fifty cats on each floor, many of which are easy to spot, but with a good number that will require a more thorough scouring of the environment. Each one is a fairly simple design, but this feels deliberate so that they…
Terminal Velocity: Boosted Edition – Gotta go fast!
The afterburner is great fun when you’re flying through tight tunnels, as you reach Ludicrous Speed instantly, resulting in you hurtling along and probably pinballing off the walls as you go.
Shotgun King: The Final Checkmate is the smartest game in the room
I know that we're a little late with this one, but it's hard to not want to tell somebody about Shotgun King: The Final Checkmate after you've played it... and, I'm guessing, you've maybe not played it. So now I'm going to tell you why you…
Night of Frights! Game brings Five Nights at Freddies to your kitchen table
Five Nights at Freddies is a popular game that has done well over the years, so of course getting a board game adaptation is something that makes sense and can keep interest and can continue to bring the game to life! Night of Frights! Game…
MG-X Pro iPhone adds an Xbox Controller to your Phone
We have previously reviewed the MG-X Pro Android controller, which allows you to level up your gaming experience on your Android device by attaching the controller. Now, we're here to talk about if the iPhone version of the game is as well…
No One Lives Under the Lighthouse – Solitude
Items aren’t where you left them, machines are mysteriously damaged, and something keeps knocking on doors. I can’t go into too much detail for fear of spoiling a lot of what happens, but suffice to say that you rapidly descend into…
Sunday Gold – Style over substance
The characters are great fun as well. Sally’s tough but calm demeanour comes across in great contrast to Gavin’s skittish, panicky nature. They come across like over-the-top cockney caricatures, and for the most part, are very well written…
