Rogue Point is a new tactical roguelite FPS from the creators of Black Mesa, Crowbar Collective. With publishing by Team17 (a lot of games), this solo or co-op experience is available now in Early Access. You can pick it up only on Steam. Go Roguelite on that FPS Rogue Point certainly gives off a unique vibe. A cross between a tactical FPS and a roguelite was enough to interest me. But can it hit the best points of each genre? Find out in this early access look below. Gameplay A co-op, tactical roguelite FPS is the best way I can categorize Rogue Point.

EVERDARK: Undead Apocalypse – PC Review

If you are looking for your next survival horror, then why not check out EVERDARK: Undead Apocalypse? It aims to blend fast-paced action, with survival horror, all with a nice classic 80s tone. Well, that is what it says on the Steam page. It will cost you £16.99, and there is a comic you can buy too for £3.99. Night of the living... eh? Gameplay EVERDARK is a challenging game with its main focus on survival horror. Supplies are scarce and melee weapons break after several hits so it is best to take caution. Since we are fighting Vampires the player is only able to stun when dealing damage. This is quickly resolved when getting the stake from an NPC early on. The story itself has us placed in the shoes of a random guy, who is pulled into a nightmarish night. And must save the world fr...

Currently available on the Playstation Store for £64.99, can Requiem live up to its predecessors? How the hell do you get back to Racoon City? Gameplay Resident Evil Requiem immediately goes against the established RE curve by allowing the player to choose their POV. In an attempt to combine the nostalgia of the over the shoulder shots with the first person horror that appeared in Biohazard, Capcom let you personalise your experience from the menu. It recommends playing Grace's story from 1st person whilst using the over-the-shoulder camera for Leon. You can swap and change these settings as you go through the game depending...

ROMEO IS A DEAD MAN PC Review

ROMEO IS A DEAD MAN an Action Adventure game from the most creative minds at Grasshopper Manufacture (Suda51). The same company that has created some the most beloved cult classic games like the No More Heroes series, Killer 7 and Lollipop Chainsaw. Even the games for animes such as Samurai Champloo and Blood + craftly made from this amazing company. The first exposure to Suda51's creative madness was actually when my cousins were playing Killer 7. And the rest was history to be frank. The rule of thumb when playing a Grasshopper game is to never think you can predict their next move. Gameplay ROMEO IS A DEAD MAN is about...well Romeo. A deputy sheriff that while checking the body in the middle of the road got a severe injury. An injury that cost him his life, but thanks to his grandf...

Dynasty Warriors: Origins – Vision of Four Heroes – PS5 Review

I am excited to be playing Dynasty Warriors: Origins' new DLC, Visions of Four Heroes. Here is hoping for more epic battles, and maybe a more in-depth look into the four heroes we will see. I have already reviewed the base game, so why not check out my thoughts on that. The DLC is available on PlayStation 5 for £28.99. Oh boy, that seems a little steep. Gifs used in this article may contain flashing. A Tiger Among Dragons. Gameplay The Vision of Four Heroes gives us four mini what-if campaigns.

Nioh 3 – PS5 Review

Here I am checking out the latest release by Team Ninja, Nioh 3. So expect to be fending off infamous Yokai, all while aiding lords and being friends to spirits. I've been enjoying the Nioh games since the first, and I'm looking forward to seeing what the devs have cooked up this time. Maybe some influence from their other titles like, Rise of Ronin, or Wo Long, Who knows, but I am up for it. You are able to purchase the game on PlayStation for £64.99 or pick up the Digital Deluxe Edition for £94.99. Which nets you a few extra goodies, and season pass. Finally, if you don't want to drop that amount on a game you aren't even sure you will like, then why not check out Nioh 3's demo here. Gifs used may contain flashing images. Time Is A Funny Thing, Sometimes You Just Get Sent Back. Ga...

Lunars – PC Review

Lunars is a party board game from the fun minds at Anubis Arts. The game handles like Mario Party, only replace the star with Jade Buttons, just with chaos greeting every facet this game can cover. To the mini games, the maps and even the characters themselves. Now let's roll this 12 sides die and see where this review will place. The one party game where it's okay to have more than one person choose the same character. Gameplay Before you start the game, you can start the process of customizing your zodiacs if you'd like. Since I was born on the year of the ram/sheep, I was the character the whole review. While my partner Lucifera who was born on year of the dragon. Playing the maps three times on Normal, while only one map on Blitz mode was actually fun. Getting to experiment and ex...

Netherworld Covenant – PC Review

Netherworld Covenant (out now on Steam, and Epic) opens with a confident splash of crimson and black, silver armour catching the light as fallen warriors rise once more. Developed by MadGoat Game Studio and published by Infini Fun alongside CriticalLeap, Netherworld Covenant very clearly wants to sit in the uncomfortable space between roguelike repetition and Soulslike severity. The premise lands hard. You rise from death to avenge fallen comrades, only to find chaos has warped them beyond recognition. Victory doesn’t free them; their spirits bind to you, granting spectral abilities that shape every run. It’s a striking hook, but it also sets the tone early. Netherworld Covenant doesn’t ease you in. It demands pace, punishes hesitation, and makes the consequences clear. From the opening...
