The Quarry PC Review

The Quarry is an interactive horror game from developer Supermassive Games (Until Dawn, The Dark Pictures Anthology) and publisher 2K (Borderlands series & NBA2K series). It's a spiritual successor to Until Dawn in this narrative-heavy, choices matter video game. After summer camp is over, the counsellors of Hackett's Quarry are stranded overnight and spooky events begin to occur. Finding clues, solving the mystery and making wise choices may just be enough to survive the night. The Quarry is available on PC, PS4/PS5 & Xbox One & X/S on June 10th. Classic horror in spades here in The Quarry! I love Supermassive Games' previous work and so I was especially excited to play The Quarry. Let us know below if you are excited or what you think about the game too. Gameplay The ...

Midnight Ghost Hunt PC Review

How do you make games like Phasmophobia and Prop Hunt better? Why you stitch them together in a Frankenstein-esque attempt to create a miracle and spit in the face of God. At least, that's what Vaulted Sky Games, the developers of Midnight Ghost Hunt, would tell you. And I’ll be damned, but they might actually have the style to pull it off. Available through Steam's Early Access, the ambitious title does a lot to stack up to the experience of the gaming titans it’s riffing from. Sure, there are some rough spots, but this game does a LOT with its concept. Who you gonna call? Midnight Ghost Hunters! Yeah, that doesn’t sound right… I'll tell you right off the bat that this is a game that you should be playing with friends. Much like prop hunt and Phasmophobia before it, Midnight Ghost Hunt ...

Star Wars: The Force Unleashed Switch Review

Before Disney owned the Star Wars IP, came a game aimed at bridging the gap between the two movie trilogies - Star Wars: The Force Unleashed was born. Initially developed by LucasArts, the game has come to the Nintendo Switch via developer Krome Studios and ported by Aspyr. I know what you're thinking - it was only a matter of time really, considering it seems to get released on every console. It even had a Nintendo DS release which was amazing since you could play Star Wars on the go. And a mobile (iOS) release. Players are cast into the role of Darth Vader's secret apprentice, Starkiller. You're trained to hunt down and destroy Jedi. That's right, you aren't playing a hero. You might know that already since the game is rather old now. But if you're new to the game then that's a sellin...

Metal Tales: Overkill Review

Metal and video games are two of my foremost passions in life. So on the rare occasion that they do come together, I always jump at the chance to give it a go. It is a shame that this seldom happens as a lot of gamers, like myself are metalheads. My earliest recollection of metal-style riffage in games is the tune that is E1M1 - At Doom's Gate, from the 1993 classic DOOM! A style that is still consistent with the franchise today. More recent fantastic entries include Guitar Hero: Metallica and Brutal Legend. Well, I say recent, that was over 10 years ago. So, does Metal Tales: Overkill fill that metal/gaming void? Metal Tales: Overkill - Needs More Metal Metal Tales: Overkill is a roguelike twin-stick shooter developed and published by Zerouno Games. The game is out now digitally on all ...

Chernobylite PS5 Review

Originally released for consoles in September 2021, Chernobylite has been given a massive upgrade for next-gen consoles and PC.

During the play, actors assume the role of Igor Khymynuk, who worked at a power plant alongside his now-missing fiancée Tatyana.

Uragun Preview

Uragun is a top-down arcade shooter now available in Early Access on Steam. It is being developed and published by Kool2Play. This is Kool2Play's first title to hit Early Access, with two additional projects currently in the works. Uragun. Like, Literally. Anytime I see screenshots or trailers for top-down shooters I always think about arcade cabinet games. I'm really not sure why, but they just seem to fit well in that type of setting. Uragun is no different. I could imagine playing standing at a cabinet with joystick in my hand, mashing buttons and coughing up quarters-a-plenty. Some other genres fit the bill well too. Which others stand out to you as what could be in a modern arcade setting? Let me know! Gameplay Uragun is a top-down, futuristic action shooter. It also falls und...

Let's bring back some good old nostalgia shall we with this B.I.O.T.A review. B.I.O.T.A - These Aliens Won't Even See It Coming When you say 8bit to gamers the first thing that will pop into their mind is Mario, Castlevania, Metroid, Sonic.
