ZHEROS Review – The Forgotten Land

ZHEROS by Rimlight Studios is a fun, family friendly 3D beat 'em up that is available on Xbox One, PC and most recently PlayStation 4. ZHEROS can be played either in single player or two player co-op mode. Your mission? To take on an epic journey through distant and unknown galaxies in an attempt to stop the evil Dr Vendetta from taking over the universe with his mutilated twisted minions. Rimlight attempts to bring back the classic sideways scroller beat 'em up that has been a successful formula since the days of Streets of Rage and Golden Axe. So how does ZHEROS stack within this genre? Lets take a look. Selecting your character you can choose to play as either the strong and dimwitted Mike, the smart and agile Captain Dorian or with the new "Forgotten Land" DLC, as Thione. ...

Late Shift Review – The Decisions Are You

Late Shift is a high stakes FMV crime thriller. Forced into a brutal London heist, you must choose your own adventure in this interactive cinematic experience. With adaptable storylines that lead to one of seven conclusions. Gameplay You play the character of Matt, a valet parking attendant in London. Decisions that you make determine his actions throughout Late Shift. These decisions vary from whether you should give a pretty blonde keys to a high performance sports car, to deciding whether to go up or down in an elevator. After I found the first ending and getting attached to Matt all bets were off in the following playthroughs. I sent him running from gunfire, abandoning any kind of selfless attitudes and only thinking about myself. Each experience followed generally the same story...

Playerunknown’s Battlegrounds Review – Last Man Standing

Introduction Dropping onto an island, armed only with your wits and underwear (honestly!), you need to find weapons, armour and medical supplies in order to survive a 100 player Battle Royale style death match. Coming from the mind of Player Unknown, a man who has extensive experience in crafting these types of games from his work on both ARMA 2 and ARMA 3 Battle Royale mods and his involvement on King of the Kill for H1Z1, this is by far the most polished and true experience of a Battle Royale/Hunger Games type video game. With the ability to enter solo, duo or in a squad of four, to say this game is an adrenaline pumping and downright terrifying game would be an understatement. Knowing your demise could be around every corner or just over the top of every hill just gives you a buzz t...

Siegecraft Commander Review – Towers of Terror

Siegecraft commander by Blowfish studios is the latest instalment of the popular siegecraft franchise. With a combination of twitch mechanics and positional tactics, you are tasked with building a fortress in its unique branching structure with each specialised tower giving differing skills to your ever-growing fortress. Everything that is user controlled is performed by adjusting the angle and trajectory of projectiles, firing both parts of your fortress and weapons upon the enemies that have only one mission, to stop you from destroying their keep. Gameplay The game itself is spread into two areas, the single player missions which see you choosing to be the Knights or the Lizards and taking on each mission as they come. Using some tactics, which I struggled with at first but eventually...
