Worming From Home – PC Review

It's been a long day at work filling out spreadsheets. Now it's time to turn on my PC, load up Steam and play a game about filling out spreadsheets. It's totally different though because now I'm a worm. I've been waiting a long time for Worming From Home to hit the Steam shelves after play the demo a while ago. Who knew that typing as a worm could be so hard? Gameplay The first thing that crosses my mind when thinking about Worming From Home is... just how much can a worm do? Turns out quite a bit if you were to ask Zach Northrop and Mason Sabharwal. The game is pretty simple in its premise if you take a look on the Steam page it's simply a "Remote work simulator where you are a worm :)". There is work and you are most definitely a worm but don't let the label fool you. Somehow, there...

Enter Your Unknown OCD Organization Skills I don't play a lot of simulator games. Not that they don't interest me, they just usually take more time and attention than I want to spend on them. I took a look at Bunker Tidy Up mostly because it seemed simple and easy to play through. I missed the part about how many individual items there were to pick up and sort... Nevertheless, I persevered and my review can be found below! Gameplay Bunker Tidy Up is a simulator about picking up, sorting and stocking sup...

NHL 27 Deluxe Edition – PS5 Review

From developers EA Vancouver, NHL 27 is the newest addition to this well-established series. Whilst I am the type of player who enjoys sports games, growing up in England means that I am not exposed to the likes of American Football and Hockey. However, because I am just a simple girl, TV shows such as Heated Riverly and Off Campus have introduced me to the world of hockey. Therefore, when NHL 27 was released, I wanted to experience playing hockey myself (within reason). Skating on thin ice Having been released on 11/09/2026, NHL 27 is available to buy now on both PS5 and Xbox Series X/S. Whilst I was extremely lucky to be given the Deluxe Edition (which comes in at a whopping £99.99), the Standard Edition is currently available for £69.99.

Emergency Room Simulator – PC Review

When a new simulator game is released, I’m like a moth to a flame. This is no different with the recent release of Emergency Room Simulator. Developed by Caipirinha Games and published by Aerosoft, both of which are no strangers to simulator games. Emergency Room Simulator thrusts you into the chaotic role of an ER doctor. Emergency Room Simulator is available to buy now on Steam for £22.49. Welcome to the Grey Sloan Memorial Hospital Now, I must tell you that my only experience with medicine or being a doctor comes from religiously watching Grey’s Anatomy. But I’ll try my best to see how realistic it is! Gameplay Emergency Room Simulator focuses on medical investigation rather than focusing solely on treatment. Like in real life, your patient care begins with the paramedics' or nu...
