Revenge of The Savage Planet – PS5 Review

Revenge of the Savage Planet follows Journey to the Savage Planet, a sleeper hit from 2020. Raccoon Logic, a studio formed by developers from the now-defunct Typhoon Studios (the original developer), created the sequel. The game released across PC and consoles on May 8th. For this review I took a look at the PlayStation 5 version. Story Revenge Of The Savage Planet sees you wake up from a cryogenic slumber, having been sent lightyears into the future. However, things turn sour when you wake up and you discover that the corporation that sent you Alta, has fired you, leaving you to fend for yourself with the limited resources available to you. You’ll find the rest of you equipment scattered across multiple other planets, where you’ll catalogue a vast array of flora and fauna as you piece t...

Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 – PC Review

Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 is a narrative-driven JRPG by Sandfall Interactive, an indie development team from France. The game is a solo adventure with publishing by Kepler Interactive (Windblown, Pacific Drive). It is available now on Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, and PC via Steam or Epic. For this review I'm taking a look at the PC version. Embark on an Expedition into a Vibrant, Deadly World Oh hey look a game that isn't a roguelite! There has seemingly been a lot of hype leading up to the release of Clair Obscur: Expedition 33. I'm not sure if it was word of mouth or simply good advertising that caught my eye. But I'm taking the plunge into a genre nearly wholly unfamiliar to me, so bear with me. Honestly the most prominent recollection I have of playing anything even similar is o...

Rusty Rabbit – PC Review

Rusty Rabbit is an action-adventure RPG from developers NITRO PLUS with publishing assistance from SoFun. I originally saw a glimpse of this game during Steam NextFest in Spring of last year. While the game's premise and mechanics had me slightly excited, it was the fact that Kazuma Kiryu's Japanese voice actor was voicing the main protagonist, Stamp, that cemented my need to play it. I entered fanboy mode hard over that fact alone. It's been a long while since I got to enjoy collecting Junk again. Let's cut the chatter and figure out if this game is great or a McGregor. Gameplay You start out as the rabbit known as Stamp. A junk/mech fanatic rabbit existing in a world that seems like our Earth, but going through a second Ice Age. With a world consisting of just rabbits and 'rust b...

Previews & Early Access

RuneScape: Dragonwilds – PC Early Access Preview

RuneScape: Dragonwilds is a new survival game twist on the classic IP of the same name. It came roaring into Early Access out of nowhere in mid-April, with developing and publishing by Jagex Ltd (RuneScape, Old School RuneScape). It may not be free like the previous games, but is still at a reasonable price point. You can pick it up today on Steam for £24.99. Solid Survival Gameplay with a touch of Dragons I honestly don't recall ever playing RuneScape growing up. The original launched in 2001 and that would have been the same time that I was more into Counter-Strike than anything else on PC. Before I really even knew what MMOs were. I wasn't friends with anyone that was playing it either, so I've only roughly known bits and pieces about it. RuneScape: Dragonwilds caught many by surprise...

Freeride – PC Review

Wacky characters and some destructive scenarios await in Freeride. Developed by Flightyfelon Games Inc and published with help from Future Friends Games, the game releases on Steam today (1st May). ALL ABOARD, NEXT STOP! MY FEELS GETTING RAN OVER LIKE A PIECE OF PAPER!!! This game is more of a personality test masquerading as an RPG adventure. And it doesn't hide it either. When I say it cane be destructive too, I mean it in the literal sense. Though the trip is short, we've got multiple routes to the same destination. I'll make sure to keep this review completely spoiler-free. Gameplay Freeride has you playing as Proto. He's just minding his own business at the train station until he gets a text message. Responding to the text or not is the first of many choices within the game. I...

BOKURA: planet – PC Review

When a game comes along with a vision so bold that a certain amount of hoop jumping is required, you sit up and take notice. And so it is with BOKURA: planet, a unique 2-player co-op, puzzle adventure that has you working with and, at times, against your real-life cohort as you try to escape a mysterious, unknown planet. Xenomorphing Power Rangers BOKURA: planet is the latest game from solo Japanese developer Tokoronyori. Over the years, they have gained a reputation for crafting unique, pixel-art experiences that often break the 4th wall in novel and unexpected ways. Their debut title, farewell planet, had you carrying out the final wishes of machines that thought they were human. In BOKURA: planet’s previous instalment, BOKURA, you took on the role of two boys, one of whom sees the wor...

The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered – PC Review

It really happened! The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered has released! Developed by Bethesda Game Studios and Virtuos, it is available right now for PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PS5. The base game includes all of the old DLCs that are available for the original version of the game. However, there is also a Digital Deluxe Edition that features quests for new armour and weapons, as well as a digital artbook and the game's soundtrack! By The Nine! Well, that release was unexpected! Like sure, yeah, there were leaks, but when can you ever properly believe those? Anyways! I'm so thrilled to see so much love shown to my second favourite The Elder Scrolls game — I'm a Morrowind girlie, fight me. Still, I love Oblivion with every fibre of my being, and this remaster has settled straight into my...

Blue Prince – PC Review

Blue Prince is an adventure, puzzle, strategy game developed by Dogubomb and published by Raw Fury. You can grab your copy from Steam for £25. There was a lot of advertising for this game before it's release, but what caught my attention was the puzzles. Puzzles alone weren't the only things that interested me however, but the fact the game reminded me of the board game, Betrayal at House on the Hill. And if you like that board game, then play this game but don't worry about any supernatural things… maybe. Room for everyone Much like within Betrayal at House on the Hill in Blue Prince which rooms appear will make or break the run. And boy did my runs get broken because of RNGesus not being on my side! The other thing that kept me playing was the mystery behind someone's disappearance. Bu...

Amerzone: The Explorer’s Legacy [Remake] – PC Review

Return to Latin America once again in the Remake of Amerzone: The Explorer's Legacy. I didn’t play the game when it originally released back in 1999, so I’m looking forward to seeing what Microids has for me. Anyone who has played it before can look forward to some major visual/graphical improvements. Rediscovering An Enjoyable Adventure Amerzone: The Explorer's Legacy will be out on Steam April 24th for £34.90, with the Digital Deluxe costing £43.99. This will net you a media book, some artwork, and, most interesting, a couple of animated short stories. If that sounds good to you, then click here. Gameplay Amerzone: The Explorer's Legacy is a point & click-style game with the player looking around the environment solving puzzles. We play as a no-named journalist, who is invi...
