Defend the Rook is the new game from One Up Plus, the studio who brought us the underrated Dungeontop just fifteen months ago. Mixing the various flavours of roguelikes, turn-based tactics and board games with a seasoning of tower defence,…

Battles take place on a grid in a small area and you’ll always have the exact information on what your enemies will do on their turn, whilst you try to take them out using a deck of cards. On the surface, this is really quite simple, but…

The last few years have created a massive surge in the Slice of Life genre; with the outside world closed off for so many people, it's no wonder that they looked inside for somewhere to escape to instead. Animal Crossing was a phenomenon,…

Munchkin is a game that everyone has at least heard of, if not played. There are tons of variations of the game, including lots of brand collaborations, that bring their own twist to the game. We got our hands on Munchkin Spongebob…

Cyber Hook is a first-person platformer action game where you’re trying to move towards the goal as fast as possible.

Lately, I have been spending my evenings playing slice of life styled games. Letting the hours pass by as I explore these strange and wonderful worlds, enjoying my time in the warmth of my own home. The Good Life had taken up a bunch of my…

Upon launching the game, you’ll notice that there’s no option to start a new game, only to continue which seems a bit odd, but if you go with it you’ll be dropped straight into the game. You sit in a dark cabin across from a figure swathed…

The Tycoon genre is thriving at the moment and, much like with the simulator space, it's spiralling in all sorts of directions. Arcade Oven's Hotel Magnate is grounded entirely in reality and really makes me wonder why there haven't been…

Backbone. Backbone, backbone, backbone. Alright. Basics first: this is, as described, a modern take on point and click games. It features detailed, sharply written dialogue and vividly drawn characters. It is rendered in a sort of 2D Pixel…
