Because we're going to use our best spells and breach this review of Tactical Breach Wizards! Tactical Breach Wizards is an Adventure, RPG, Strategy from Suspicious Developments. These folks made one of my favourite games from 2013: Gunpoint. I'm not exaggerating when I say it felt a bit of an honour to get to review this game as I spent hours on Gunpoint.

Akimbot – PC Review

Akimbot is 3D Platform Shooter made by the Evil Raptor with their publisher Plaion. Now you may think this game is a homage to Ratchet and Clank, but boy do I have a surprise for you. The team at Evil Raptor are such big fans of Jak and Daxter, that both Akimbot and their previous title Pumpkin Jack were both greatly shaped by it. Akimbot? More like akimbo with these mouthy robots Gameplay Akimbot is set in a sci-fi world where only robots exist. The game starts with our main characters Exe and Shipset under lock and key. Turns out this chaotic duo are being delivered to a mob boss because of the price on their heads. During mid transit, Shipset manages to distract the driver whilst hacking the terminal, causing it to blow up. They crash land on the location known as Data B...

Ario – PC Review

Ario, developed by Vata Games and published by Artax Games, plunges players into a vivid yet troubled world. Ario tells the story of a young warrior named Ario, who embarks on a perilous journey to rescue his mother from the clutches of dark forces. What begins as a quest to reunite with his missing parent soon becomes an epic battle against nightmares, curses, and a host of demonic enemies. With its combination of action, platforming, and tower defence elements, Ario attempts to carve out a niche in the crowded 2.5D action-adventure genre. But does it succeed? Ario, this game needed some more air yo. What really stands out in Ario is the vibrant art style and dark atmosphere. It does a great job of creating a world filled with tension and mystery, making exploration genuinely exciting...

Creatures of Ava – Xbox Review

My relationship with creature-collecting games is complicated. I occasionally enjoy them, but often find many aspects of them uninspired or frustrating. I left Pokemon behind in Gen 2. So when one comes along that subverts my expectations on several levels, it’s both wonderfully refreshing and a warm hug at the same time. Creatures of Ava by Inverge Studios and Chibig is that refreshing warm hug. A “creature-saver” rather than collector, you take control of Vic, a scientist tasked with saving the creatures of the planet Ava before it succumbs to an infection known as the Withering. With the help of a new friend, Vic stumbles upon an ancient staff, capable of cleansing the infection. What begins as a simple rescue and evacuation soon becomes a journey of empathy and understanding, for bo...
