Chip ‘n Clawz vs. The Brainioids – PC Review

Chip 'n Clawz vs. The Brainiods is a new 3rd person strategy action game by the creator of X-COM, Julian Gollop, and Snapshot Games (Phoenix Point). With publishing by Arc Games (Remnant II, Torchlight 3), play solo or with a friend to save the planet's supply of Brainium from the invading Brainiods. You can pick it up today for PC via Steam or Epic, PS5 or Xbox. Today I'm taking a look at the PC version which is £25 on Steam. Meet Your Next Comedic Gaming Duo: Chip 'n Clawz! Duos seem to be a common theme in 3d action platformers. The obvious and most direct comparison here would be between Chip 'n Clawz vs. The Brainioids and the well-known Ratchet & Clank series. Both feature a humanoid and their robot sidekick with a world to save. Regardless of similarities though, the trailer c...

Story of Seasons: Grand Bazaar – PC Review

Story of Seasons: Grand Bazaar, a remake of the original Harvest Moon: Grand Bazaar, is a newly released farming game developed and published by Marvelous Inc. The game released on August 27th on Steam, Switch and Switch 2. In this game, you take on the role of a new farmer who has just moved to Zephyr Town, a place whose bazaar was once one of the grandest in the world. However, the bazaar has lost its spark, and it's now your job to help restore its prosperity and make the town thrive again! The Grand Remake While I unfortunately didn't get to play the original game, I used to be absolutely obsessed with watching Harvest Moon speedruns for a good while.

Monster Mop Up – PC Review

The latest game published by Yogscast Games is called Monster Mop Up, a new cleaning sim developed by the team at Terahard Ltd. I'll assume the role once again of a cleaner as I mop, vacuum, and capture little monsters that are causing havoc. If you're on the lookout for another cleaning sim, and like the sound of Monster Mop Up, then you can purchase it on the Steam store here for £12.79. There's also a demo available.

SHUTEN ORDER – PC Review

SHUTEN ORDER is an Adventure game with the developer being Nelo inc. With the backing coming from Spike Chunsoft, which in a moment will make a lot of sense. Reason for that last statement is because the whole game has the whole Danganronpa vibe. From the art style, the game's execution, to even the pacing of the game will make you think so. I honestly had a complete blast playing detective through out the entire journey. The only thing to keep in mind is, the game will continue to change into something different when hunting down your killer. So, lets pray to God and use the power of said God and start the review. When using God's Power, always have your QTE skills sharp as a knife. Gameplay You start as Rei, someone who was resurrected to discover their killer and to get their bo...

Two Point Museum: Fantasy Finds DLC – PC Review

Two Point Studios recently released the Fantasy Finds DLC, but what exactly does this add to the game that received a Platinum Award from me? Priced at £6.99 on Steam, it's super affordable if you enjoy the base game of Two Point Museum. Roll For Initiative! If you aren't sure about purchasing the full update, you can check out a small portion of the content in the base game. It's incredibly limited, but it gives you an insight into whether you are going to enjoy the fully fledged Fantasy Finds DLC. Gameplay I'm not going to go into the gameplay arc of Two Point Museum. If you want to read more about the actual game, then check out my link back at the top. Otherwise, let's dive into the Fantasy Finds DLC.
