When it comes to picking apart an enemy, or defending the indefensible, sometimes you have to change the battlefield in order to win. All Will Rise is a narrative courtroom deckbuilder that puts you at the helm of a team of idealists who…

Jackbox Party Pack 11 has all new games in a variety of different forms which are fantastic to play with your friends. With ten party packs under their belt, for a total of thirty products on Steam, it was just a matter of times before they…

A month doesn't pass by without some twist on retail simulation or slice of life city-to-town life releasing. Discounty takes you away from the big city, to a job in a town that's been left behind by the world. Ah, that moment as you first…

After many years of slaughtering zeds through Killing Floor 1 and 2 we've finally come to the third installment: Killing Floor 3. It comes complete with buckets of limbs, blood and gore as well as a variety of new customisation options and……

The original Frostpunk was a masterclass in moral compromise. It asked players not just how they would survive, but what they were willing to sacrifice to do so. Now, Frostpunk 2 arrives with a colder heart and a broader scope, trading the…

Warhammer 40,000: Darktide has just had a brand new face let loose on its dismal, lawless world and who better to bring that law back into the light than the Emperor’s lawbringers: The Adeptus Arbites.  Arbites, for those unfamiliar, are…

There’s no denying that Empyreal makes a strong first impression. From the moment you step into its fractured, floating world, it’s clear that this is a game with vision. The skybound setting — all shimmering islands, ancient ruins, and…

Returning to the North Sea oil rig that served as the haunting stage for Still Wakes the Deep, the Siren’s Rest DLC offers a more introspective, subdued experience than its predecessor.  Where the base game was a masterclass in…

I'm going to open with a clear message here. Wuchang: Fallen Feathers is honestly one of the best games that I have played this year. I came into it a bit apprehensive, being a massive Dark Souls fan, and was wondering how this would hold…

Have you ever had a moment in your life that you look back on and thought about how you could have done things differently? If you were given the chance, would you want to see how much your life would change if you altered a significant…

From the outset, Blades of Fire feels unashamedly old-school. It opens with a cutscene that makes little to no sense, and the game takes an awfully long time to bring its memorable, interesting storyline to bear.  That’s not really what…

Dead By Daylight is entering its ninth year, a surprisingly long time for a live service game in today's day and age. It offers something special to the video game market that means it has, essentially, no competition. Texas Chainsaw…

You can’t be away from a heat source for more than thirty seconds before your display starts getting distorted as you suffer from the effects of the weather. I can understand why this is done when the play area is so small, but trying to…

As far as remakes and remasters go, we’re now firmly into the realms of remasters of re-releases of remakes that often came out ten or more years ago. This concept is strange to me, since whilst I often feel like I’m still a spritely…

But then the house changed, with rooms being added and entirely new floors appearing. The first time this happened, I genuinely started second guessing myself and thought I simply hadn’t spotted that door, but then more and more turns up,…

Just as you become familiar with one mechanic, it offers you the next one with a subtle cough and a thrash of a power chord.

I never played Journey to the Savage Planet, but if my experience with Revenge of the Savage Planet is anything to go by, I may well have missed out.  Revenge of the Savage Planet is the product of Raccoon Logic, a newly minted developer…

If your parents were anything like mine then, as a kid, they used to tell you various little white lies that you can still remember even now. You know the ones: Don't go swimming thirty minutes after you've eaten, carrots are good for your…

Where once the squad-based tactical shooter was a rarity, I feel that these days I’ve been inundated with them. This is a good problem to have as long as new entries to the genre, such as Chains of Freedom, pass the simple “is it as good as…
