Tevi – PC Review

Through the adventure going through Tevi, I've experienced some great storytelling and amazing world building. But something got caught in the cogwheel during my playthrough. And it was the time around me that would disappear playing. No regrets. Tevi is an Action, Adventure Metroidvania with some Bullet Hell splashing on there by a bucket. Developed by CreSpirit who also made a similar game format called Rabi-Rabi that I've had the pleasure of experiencing before. The game first appeared on people's radars at the OTK Games Expo 2023 on June 13th. They've even hosted a demo event from 7/21 - 8/18 to let people try it before people can wishlist it. As of writing this, they now allow people to demo the game before purchasing. I wish more developers follow CreSpirit's lead and do more...

Cities: Skylines II – PC Review

Despite being released at the end of October, I have purposely held off from writing the review of Cities: Skylines II. A follow-up to the long-reigning hit from 2015, Cities: Skylines, devs Colossal Order and publisher Paradox Interactive have been working hard to make this installment better. Initially thwarted by graphical bugs, I have found it hard to get to grips with the new iteration, having stooped as low as 7fps despite running the graphics on low. Thankfully there have been a few updates along the way that have addressed some of the issues and made Cities: Skylines II playable. Ruling The City Once More Are you ready to see what the changes are and ultimately what Cities: Skylines II is like to play? Let's get building! Gameplay Going straight in and creating a new gam...

Spirittea – PC Review

Spirittea is an exciting solo endeavour by game developer Cheesemaster Games and is published by No More Robots. The game released on November 13, 2023 to PC, Game Pass and Nintendo Switch. A few days after the game launched, the founder of the publishing company No More Robots posted a thread on X (formerly Twitter) that ruffled more than a few feathers in the game development and content creation communities. Enlightenment through Spirit-uali-Tea Spirittea is a life simulation game that I have already personally sunk more than 10 hours into. Slide into the role of a writer in desperate need of inspiration for their next book. You move to a sleepy little town to get away from the hustle and bustle of the big city. Pet dogs, chase critters and steal people's belongings in this cozy game....
