Encased: A Sci-Fi Post-Apocalyptic RPG (PC) Review
Encased: A Sci-Fi Post-Apocalyptic RPG invites you to take a trip beneath the dome from which you may never return. Does it possess the gameplay complexity and divergent narrative to stand alongside the best in the genre?
Kitaria Fables (PC) Review
Kitaria Fables launches into an oversaturated genre. Does it do enough with its world, characters, and gameplay loop to stand out?
Say No! More (PC) Review
The best way to approach Say No! More is as an interactive novel rather than a game. A game inspired by the developers own experiences as corporate drones and their wish fulfilment in how they might have handled the experience. Treat it as a short break into a fantasy world of no consequences and a way to relieve some work stress, but more importantly maybe look at it as a way to train yourself in the subtle art of saying “No!”.
Sky Beneath Demo Impressions
Sky Beneath is a narrative-driven, puzzle-platformer that mixes up classic gameplay mechanics with a multi-directional, gravity-altering twist.
Hitchhiker – A Mystery Game (Xbox Series S) Review
Hitchhiker - A Mystery Game is a strictly on-the-rails narrative adventure with an intriguing central mystery, surreal atmosphere, and a quirky, fantastically voiced cast. Unfortunately, player interactivity is kept to a bare minimum and your dialogue choices ultimately have little impact on the flow of the overarching narrative.
Narita Boy (Xbox Series S) Review
Narita Boy is a solid action-platformer - with an intriguing story and challenging combat - and a stunning audiovisual experience. It's not without faults, but they're easy to overlook when the rest of the package is so good.
Gravity Heroes (Xbox Series S) Review
Gravity Heroes is a great party game, full of visually chaotic, gravity-altering gunfights and tough boss encounters. Unfortunately, the experience can begin to feel repetitive when played solo, due to limited arena variety and similar enemy behaviour. At least the distinctive pixel-art visuals and catchy techno soundtrack will keep you bobbing along to the action.
