Youtubers Life 2 is more fun than being a Youtuber
To be honest, I didn’t think I would like Youtubers Life 2. I have not played the first game, and felt like I just wouldn’t enjoy a tycoon game about making and editing videos for Youtube. But, Youtubers Life 2 has proven that becoming a…

Pupperazzi is adorable, but lacks finesse

Not For Broadcast — You gotta see this
The gameplay and story kept me engaged, but it’s the acting that really brings all this to life. It’s absolutely excellent throughout. Characters are either genuinely likeable or caricatures of celebrities, and they’re all portrayed…

Battle Brothers’ Xbox outing finally brings one of the best strategy games to the TV
Battle Brothers has finally brought its turn-based tactics to the Xbox, and it's an almost perfect port, only held back by some controller and UI decisions. I've made my thoughts on Battle Brothers well known over the last few years, having…
Mortal Sin — Sintillating
It’s quite satisfying though, as the attacks themselves feel suitably meaty, especially when you trigger a weapon’s special effect. Seeing your foe’s limbs go flying after you’ve parried an attack, delivered a swift kick, and then finished…
Obsession maintains a stiff upper lip, but does it capture the Downton Abbey spirit?
When a game receives the sort of hype that Obsession has, you have to approach it with caution. At best, there’s a chance that you’ll end up being underwhelmed by a game that is actually decent but still can’t live up to expectations,…

Cuphead: Fast Rolling Dice Game impressed!
Cuphead is known as a very challenging, face past, almost Disney-looking video game that will make you rage quit. Or, well, it does make me rage quit. So, as a result, I was pretty curious on how the intense, face-paced, always going to…

After the Fall — Co-op Zombie Action in VR
