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...

Finding Frankie is a new spin on the animatronic horror genre. Developed and published by SUPERLOU. You find yourself with an invitation to a game show from a cereal box. What could possibly go wrong? The game throws a parkour mechanic into the horror mix while you navigate a thrilling game show full of weird and wonderful characters… and most of all, you guessed it… Frankie. Finding Frankie?

Wildkeepers Rising – PC Early Access Preview

Wildkeepers Rising is a horde survivor meets bullet hell, meets creature collector by Lioncode Games. A roguelite set in a hand-drawn world, free Guardians to help fight back against attacking hordes. The game just recently went into early access and is available on Steam. A Unique Blend of Genres If it wasn't obvious by now, I seem to be playing various roguelites often lately. From the most recent bullet hell, Odinfall, to the more survival-like Jotunnslayer: Hordes of Hel. Each thus far, including Wildkeepers Rising, has thankfully been unique in its own way to keep things interesting. Anyone else play variations on the same genre of games to keep things more interesting? Check out my thoughts on the game's current build below. Gameplay Wildkeepers Rising is a game that combines...

Crimson Desert Preview Press Event

I was luckily enough to be invited to London by Pearl Abyss to play their up-coming game Crimson Desert. There I watched a video explaining the game’s combat and some information about each of the four bosses. Afterwards we got to get hands on with the game, and what a treat it was. Warning! GIFs in this article contain flashing lights. Skill is the key Within this preview event I got to play as the main character Kliff in a small segment from the game. In the full launch we will get to venture into the large continent of Pywel, but sadly I didn't get to see this, this time! I’m looking forward to checking out the various towns and biomes we might get. If you’re looking forward to Crimson Desert, why not check the Steam Page here and give it a wishlist!

Atomfall – PC Review

Atomfall has been out for almost two weeks, and I've been playing the game quite a bit. You might have checked out our exclusive preview article previously, but now it's time to do a proper review. So sit back relax as we venture into the North of England and find out just what might have been. Lead The Way As with the preview article, I don't really want to give away too much of the game. I honestly feel that this game is best going in blind, but that's no good for a video game review. So what I'm going to do is try and keep it as vague as possible. Just talk about some of the mechanics involved in the game. If you want to know anything about the story, then check out the preview article. Gameplay Atomfall is a vast game, there are a number of areas that you can explore. Discovery is ...

Assassin’s Creed Shadows PC Review

Assassin's Creed Shadows is an Action, Adventure, RPG developed and published by Ubisoft. This game is a part of the Assassin's Creed franchise that's first started way back in 2007. Available on PlayStation 5, Xbox and PC, I got my hands on a PC copy to review. Sneak and make sure to not get caught. But if you do, leave no witnesses! I originally played the first game in the series, yet stopped when I finished Assassin's Creed Revelations. I would have played more, but I just wasn't able to move on after playing three games with Ezio Auditore. No joke, I still say "Requiescat in pace" when I play any game with an assassin in it. Or when I pretend to surprise/kill any of my friends when I sneak up on them. But, let's not get side tracked with memory lane. AC Shadows was met with a lot...

Odinfall – PC Early Access Preview

Odinfall is a fast-paced, roguelite bullet-hell now available in early access. It is an evolution of the game Gaunt Valkyr by indie studio Ember Paw Games. With publishing by Fireshine Games (Core Keeper, Shadows of Doubt), you can pick it up today over on Steam for £11. Weapons Abound in Odinfall I sure seem to be hitting up a lot of roguelite games lately. Not only that but ones relating to Norse mythology too. The pace of bullet-hell games has kept me mostly away from this area of the genre, but Odinfall has been a positive experience. Has a game's pace ever kept you from trying something new? Check out my thoughts on this early access entry below. Gameplay Odinfall is fast. It's also a bullet-hell. But fear not, it's also a roguelite! Loki, in disembodied form, has been sent to...

Fate Reawakened – PC Review

Fate Reawakened out now on steam, developed by gamigo US Inc. and Tableflip Entertainment AB, and published by gamigo US Inc. and WildTangent, seeks to bring back the beloved FATE series with a fresh coat of paint. With all four games bundled together, improved visuals, and modern enhancements, this release hopes to capture the magic of the original while introducing it to a new generation. Fate Reawakened, maybe we should have let it sleep It’s always exciting to see an older ARPG brought back to life, especially in an era dominated by Path of Exile 2 and Diablo 4. FATE was never the deepest or most complex dungeon crawler, but it had a certain charm—quirky pets, light-hearted adventuring, and a satisfying loot loop. With Fate Reawakened, fans get to relive that experience, but can ...
