Mortal Shell 2 – PC Review

Mortal Shell 2 takes the premise that the original game introduced and perfects it in a way that makes it the ideal way to experience Mortal Shell. Developer Cold Symmetry showcased its immense talent with the first Mortal Shell. However, the game had a bunch of holes that needed filling. Mortal Shell 2, which is available on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series S/X, bumps everything to eleven. It’s what the original Mortal Shell should have been in every aspect, whether it’s combat or the series-defining shell mechanic. Finally a Perfected Shell Mortal Shell 2 starts with a bang, quickly introducing everything that makes it better than its prequel. The combat is fluid, the shell system has a more detailed build system that offers more flexibility, and the game’s scale is much large...

EVERSPACE 2: Galactic Edition – Switch 2 Review

Space games have always been a bit of a mixed bag for me. There are some absolute classics out there, such as Star Wars Squadrons, Elite, Federation of Free Traders (yeah, I'm showing my age with that last one). Still, quite a few can be either too complicated, too slow or just feel like you're spending more time looking at menus than actually flying a spaceship. EVERSPACE 2 manages to avoid most of those problems by mixing fast-paced space combat with exploration, RPG mechanics, loot, crafting and a surprisingly substantial story. Originally released on PC in 2023 before making its way onto PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S, EVERSPACE 2 has now arrived on Nintendo Switch 2 in the form of the Galactic Edition. This is the complete package, including the main game, the Titans expansion, ...

Duskfade – PS5 Review

Jump, swing, and slash your way through a throwback 3D platformer in Duskfade! Coming to us from developer Weird Beluga, Duskfade harkens back to classic action platformers from the sixth-generation of consoles. Available now on Nintendo Switch 2, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC, is Duskfade a fun evolution of games gone by? Or is it just another title stuck in the past? Duskfade: A Stunning Homage to PS2 Classics Duskfade opens with a seemingly light-hearted narrative. Protagonist Zirian and his sister Allira live in Tick Town, where everything seems like a Disney-esque fairytale. That is, until Allira locks herself away to work on a secret project. This then leads to something going awry: their home exploding. and reality being ripped apart. Now, where their home once wa...

Twisted Towers – PC Review

I thought that Twisted Tower would have had a bit more chatter around it. The demo I played a while ago was really fun, and I have been waiting for its launch. Created by Atmos Games, we embark to the Twisted Tower of Mr. Twist. The game is a first-person shooter horror game, which you can grab on the Steam store. Lights, Cameras, Action! Gameplay After a brief intro showing our main character Vincent's life prior to the events of Twisted Tower, it also explains why he has come to the towers to begin with. It doesn't take long for the wacky owner to show his face and have poor Vincent run around so he can ascend to the top. Along the way, players will gather weapons, like a slingshot, sniper, and Tommy gun. All of which you can upgrade to further give you an edge in combat. The Tommy ...

Halo: Campaign Evolved – PS5 Review

Halo: Campaign Evolved is a sci-fi first-person shooter remake based on the original 2001 Halo game. Developed by Halo Studios and published by Xbox Game Studios, it is one of the rare Xbox gems to cross over to PlayStation. Along with last year's Gears of War Reloaded, it marks the beginning of a new era in video gaming. As Beautiful As The Day I Lost You Halo is back (again), but this time around it's not just another remastered version like the 2011 Anniversary or the 2020 Master Chief Collection. No, sir! This time it is a fully new remake, completely reconstructed on the Unreal Engine 5. It is brighter, flashier, and glossier than ever before, and apparently that was a problem for some hardcore Halo fans when the first trailer was released. But overall, the conversation over its...

Cultic – PS5 Review

Cultic blends old‑school gunplay with modern physics, clever level design, and crunchy combat feedback. Cultic was developed by Jasozz Games and published by 3D Realms. If you enjoyed games like DUSK or Resident Evil 4, this is may be worth your time. Cultic is of course available on most gaming platforms but I played this one on the PS5, grab it here on the PlayStation Store and let us know your thoughts! Remember those arcade shooters like House of The Dead? Cultic is very much along the lines of games exactly like this but with a lot more freedom. I cannot wait to dive into the review on this one! Me when I got my hands on Cultic, UNLIMITED POWER! Gameplay Combat is the star of the show in Cultic. Every weapon feels heavy, violent, and satisfying. The Lever‑Action Rifl...

Tarsier Studios has finally cooked up another adventure for us with Reanimals new DLC, The Prisoner. Now, we step into another dark adventure in the twisted world from the eyes of two new protagonists. The common theme this time is centred around WW1 which is I find interesting. You can grab The Prisoner DLC on Steam right now for £7.99, while season pass holders will have access right away. While you're here, why not check out my review for the base game too! Although a prisoner, we must soldier on. Gameplay This time around players will assume the roles of Prisoner, and Solider, these names are from when I checked the mask menu. With The Prisoner DLC starting with solider speaking to Prisoner through some bars, things quickly change as we end up parachuting into a war zone. Players ...

Senara: The Sacrament – PC Review

I'm checking out Influsion Inc. newest game Senara: The Sacrament, a first-person horror game, set on the ship Senara. Why are we here, who knows. But what I do know is that you can pick up the game on Steam, and there is also a demo available. Why are we always unconscious at the start of these things? Gameplay Upon waking up on the Senara with no clue as to why we are here, we quickly find out there is a cult onboard.

Granblue Fantasy Relink: Endless Ragnarok PC Review

Granblue Fantasy: Relink - Endless Ragnarok is a DLC for Granblue Fantasy: Relink. This DLC has added new characters to play with, new quests and a good amount of content. There's a lot of good in the game. But oh boy do I have several opinions of what I've gone through. Like...maybe it'll be a normal length. The whole process to just start the story is really feeling endless... Gameplay Now I must prefer that you will have a very long journey if you're trying to reach the start of the story. What I mean is after you've done all the stuff in the main game, you're halfway to Endless Ragnarok. Why do I say you're halfway there? Because you'll need to repeat what you did for Chapter Zero and go out and complete a certain quest. The amount of quests you need to complete building the do...
