DEADCAM | ANALOG • SURVIVAL • HORROR – PC Preview

I love me a good analogue-style horror game, and I’m always on the lookout for similar entries. That’s why DEADCAM | ANALOG • SURVIVAL • HORROR caught my eye. It doesn’t look like we get just one episode to enjoy, developer Joure Visser aims to have multiple episodes, which is a plus. DEADCAM has started its early access life cycle and is available on Steam for £6.09. But if you wish to try before you buy, then a demo is also on the store page. Warning GIFs used may contain Flashing Images! All your problems are fixable with a shotgun! Gameplay Before you jump into DEADCAM, as mentioned, there looks like there will be options for multiple episodes. As of right now, however, there is only one, titled Onryō. This first episode is set in the 80s and has us playing a man named Kenji. H...

Street Fighter 6 – Switch 2 Review

Sonic X Shadow Generations – Switch 2 Review

Sonic X Shadow Generations was originally released back in October last year. With the recent Switch 2 release, the game got the update treatment. With that, we were lucky to hear from SEGA, who threw us a review key for the Blue (and black) hedgehog's latest game. So sit back as we check out just how the latest console's game plays, as well as give our thoughts on the storyline. Blue or Black? Who's the fastest? If you are a fan of any of the Sonic games, then you will know what you are going to expect. Fast action, blurry visuals, and a cheesy but engaging story. I can't wait! Gameplay So, just what does Sonic X Shadow Generations bring to the franchise? Well, for starters, Shadow gets a brand new story! Exciting huh! We finally get to see why he's considered the Ultimate Life Form t...

Worship – PC Early Access Preview

Get ready to embark on a new, dark journey into the occult in Worship, the new cultist-themed roguelite game by Chasing Rats Games. Originally set for a 2022 release, the game makes its Early Access debut on July 16th on Steam! A potential "Cult" Classic? From the title alone, I came here expecting a game along the lines of Cult of the Lamb, I left playing… Pikmin? To be fair, there are noticeable differences between Pikmin and Worship. In one of them, you can have your minions fight to the death for you and your cause, often dying brutally and unnecessarily due to preventable situations that you have put them in, and in Worship you can draw pretty shapes! All jokes aside, I've had a great time playing so far. It is even more fun than I expected it to be! I think we already have a great ...

Netherworld Covenant – PC Early Access Preview

Netherworld Covenant is an isometric crossover of souls-like and roguelite gameplay in development by MadGoat Game Studio with publishing by Infini Fun. Obtain souls of the fallen in the form of companion abilities and create unique builds to suit your preferred playstyle as you fight between realms. The game is now available in Early Access for PC on Steam and Epic. Who Put these Dodge Mechanics in my Roguelite?!? Yep. It's me. Here with yet another roguelite. I will note that the game describes itself as a roguelike rather than a roguelite, and I was curious to see how it plays differently than others I have recently spent time with reviewing. Needless to say, Netherworld Covenant caught me a bit off guard with a more unique playstyle that took a little getting used to. Check out my th...

Rooftops & Alleys: The Parkour Game – PS5 Review

There's no better way to describe parkour than the word "cool". Perhaps not the most eloquent way to describe something, but leaping from rooftop to rooftop whilst performing aerial acrobatics is just bloody cool. Unfortunately, there aren't nearly enough games based around the sport, and the ones we do have aren't too impressive. Thankfully, developer MLMEDIA has just released version 1.0 of Rooftops & Alleys: The Parkour Game! Initially released into Early Access on Steam in May 2024, the game is now available for consoles. Today, we'll be reviewing the PlayStation 5 version, although it's also available on Xbox Series X|S and Nintendo Switch. With the average Steam review score sitting at "Overwhelmingly Positive", I was certainly optimistic about the console iteration! Flip, Ju...

FBC: Firebreak – PC Review

FBC: Firebreak is a new 3-player co-op FPS by Remedy Entertainment, the same studio that brought us Control. Take a step back into the FBC's headquarters and clean up various paranormal occurrences within. It is available now on PS5, Xbox X|S, and PC via Steam, Epic, or PC Game Pass. Today I'm checking out the PC version. Contain Chaos in FBC: Firebreak Control is a very enjoyable game in my humble opinion. I definitely never spent nearly as much time as I could or wanted to spend in it, but it is one of the few games that I have completed the main story in. FBC:Firebreak is a completely different style of game though, so I was curious where the similarities bled through. What I found was an interesting mixture of genres with a whole lot of Hiss to fend off. Check out my review of the PC...

Ruffy and the Riverside – PC Review

Ruffy and the Riverside is an action, adventure game from Zockrates Laboratories UG with the publishing assistance from Phiphen Games. This game is a beautiful return to the classic collectathon genre. Games like Banjo-Kazooie and Paper Mario are huge inspirations to the game. I honestly wanted to add 'puzzle' to the list of genres for this game due to the crazy amount of puzzles in it. I didn't but, it's the puzzles definitely form a good part of its personality. You'll need a really good wheel of hay to travel these woods. Without it, it'll be one bale of a time. Th game may not be out until 26th June, but you can still Wishlist it on Steam today! Or if you want to give it a try before you buy, I recommend the demo, it's really fun! Gameplay Ruffy and the Riverside starts you out...

The Book of Aaru – PC Review

The Book of Aaru, out now on Steam, starts strong; you get to play as a cat. A CAT! With slow-mo time powers in a glowing Egyptian sci-fi tomb. Say what you want about the game’s bugs (and we will), when a game lets me roleplay as a cursed feline adventurer in an ancient, future labyrinth, I’m in. Developed and published by Amenti Studios, The Book of Aaru pitches itself as a roguelite in the style of Hades and Curse of the Dead Gods, with destructible environments, time manipulation, and multiweapon combat. It’s a bold entry from a passionate indie team, blending Egyptian mythology with cosmic tech and feline acrobatics—but does it land on its feet? The Book of Aaru needs more than just a rewrite. Let’s hear it! What’s your favourite game where you play as an animal? Bonus points for ob...
