Mass Effect Legendary Edition Review

It's been roughly three years to the day since I first properly played a Mass Effect game, and then Mass Effect Legendary Edition drops into my lap. Yeah, I was very late to the party with this trilogy. I had tried it before, but action RPGs just weren't really my thing at the time. Fast forward to 2018 and I am a different gamer, a more developed and mature gamer. So when I played it back then, I could have kicked myself for not playing it before. Instead of playing the usual first-person shooters, I could have been playing this space epic! Mass Effect opened my eyes to how truly diverse the RPG genre can be. "Just another routine mission. Why do they always say that before a mission?" For a while, Bioware had been teasing something about Mass Effect all over social media. Fans were le...

Beautiful Desolation Review

Beautiful Desolation is a story-rich, 3rd person, sci-fi adventure. Developed by THE BROTHERHOOD and published on Switch and PS4 by Untold Tales. The game was also self-published by the developers on Steam in Feb 2020. It features point-and-click mechanics, branching conversations, choices, and lots of exploration. The gameplay has a relaxed, slow pace to it, that allows you to really soak into the atmosphere and story. Beautiful Desolation - I bless the game down in Africa When I think of games that focus a lot on the narrative rather than being packed full of action it's things like Telltale games and Life is Strange. What are some of your favourite story-heavy games? Let us know below in the comments! Also, if you do like games that focus a lot on telling a story, you can check out my...

Biomutant Review

Biomutant from new development studio Experiment 101 (ex Just Cause developers) and publishers THQ Nordic has recently released. It's worth noting the Experemont 101 is a team of only 20 people. We've played it and we have some thoughts to share with you. Available now on PC (Steam), Xbox One, Xbox series X|S, PS4, and PS5. Biomutant is an open-world RPG game, filled with missions, side quests, and collectibles to keep you busy for hours! Biomutant Review - It's like Ratchet and Clank meets Devil May Cry - But cuter Ever since the reveal trailer in 2017, I have been very excited to play Biomutant. It struck me as a zany, over-the-top, open-world adventure game, and I instantly fell in love with the art style and the gameplay I saw. I couldn't wait to play it! Do I still feel the same exc...

Manifold Garden Review

Here we are today with my Manifold Garden review on the PS5. Manifold Garden was brought to us by William Chyr Studio, who developed and published this game. The game originally came out in 2019 on PC, iOS, and macOS. In 2020 the game had further releases on the PS4, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch. The game is now available on Xbox Series S|X and PlayStation 5. Manifold Garden is a puzzle game where you can basically treat everything as a floor and use this to your advantage in your adventure.

Poker Club Playstation 4 Review

Once upon a time, I considered myself to have the best poker face in all the land. I was that confident in my playing that when I was a bit short on cash for the month, I would organise a game with an ex-girlfriend's family. I did this knowing full-well they just weren't very good at the game and we would fleece them every time. Also, playing poker until 4am after hours in the pub I used to run, these were good times, but they were a very long time ago. The less said about that poker club, the better! The only time I have played poker since has been in the form of mini-games in games such as Yakuza and Red Dead Redemption. So it's fair to say that my experience since has been a bit lacking, that's why I was keen to see what Poker Club had to offer. Poker Club - Is It A Flop Or A Ro...

Resident Evil Village Review

Resident Evil Village has finally released, we've played it, and we've completed it! Capcom are the developers and publishers behind this masterpiece. I had the absolute pleasure of playing this incredible game on the PlayStation 5.

We take control of Ethan Winters again during Resident Evil Village. You seriously need to have played Resident Evil VII to be able to fully understand this game, a lot of the story will not make sense otherwise.
