Used Cars Simulator – PC Preview

Used Cars Simulator is (you guessed it!) a simulator game developed by DreamWay Games and published by none other than (you guessed it again!) PlayWay S.A. The game features an open world and is available on Steam in Early Access. Hit or Miss, you decide!

Care Bears: Unlock The Magic – Switch Review

Care Bears: Unlock The Magic from Maximum Entertainment is out now. You may know Maximum Entrainment from their previous title Squirrel With a Gun (review here). This is a stark contrast from that game, but if I have half as much fun as TC's Ruddy had with that title I'm in for a very good time! Care Bears: Unlock The Magic is available on PlayStation and Nintendo Switch, for around £25. I got my hands on a Switch copy, so let's take a look. You should Care-a-Lot about this review The Care Bears are iconic, and the recent rebrand has made them even cuter. I was really excited when this first got announced. Hoping it would mean I could play as my favourite bear. Which is Grumpy Bear of course. I literally have a shrine to Grumpy Bear on my desk. Ask me nicely in the comments and I may jus...

Tiny Garden – PC Review

Back in February I got the chance to play a little preview of the Tiny Garden Steam Next Fest Demo. This cosy game is releasing very soon (8th April) and once again developer Ao Norte and publisher Super Rare Originals have trusted me to take a look ahead of launch. At the moment the game is Steam exclusive, so obviously I'll be playing on PC! Watch me crank it, watch me roll I really enjoyed the demo of this game and the full release is no different. Well, it is, let's find out how together. Gameplay Ok, so the gameplay is no different. The core loop is still very much: Grab a seed and bury it in the soil Turn the crank Collect plants Trade plants for other seed types, accessories or backgrounds But the gameplay core loop being what it is, isn't a bad thing. I lik...

Cinemaster Cinema Simulator – PC Review

Running a cinema isn’t something I would want to do, since I prefer gaming. But when Cinemaster Cinema Simulator popped up, I couldn’t deny I was curious. The game is developed by Overload Games and is looking to release on steam on March 27th. There is a demo out just in case you want to try before you buy, so click here. Time to catch an early screening. Gameplay No real set-up or story for Cinemaster Cinema Simulator, but we do get to name the place. After that, we get a brief tutorial on how everything works, and then we just rinse and repeat. You can select from a large choice of comedically named movies. Once picked, you’re able to organize the screening times. Major tip: don’t screen a movie all day otherwise you won’t get peace to replenish the confectioneries. It’s a pain w...

Croc Legend of the Gobbos Remastered – PS5 Review

Croc is hopping back into action in Croc Legend of the Gobbos Remastered. Argonaut Games has taken up the task of fitting this classic game into more modern settings through upgraded graphics, a brand new control scheme and some other features. This funky little remaster is available on the Playstation Store for £24.99 Gems, fur balls with crowns and a whole lot of jumping Gameplay Simply put, Croc does exactly what it is meant to do. It plays a lot smoother than it used to (or maybe I'm just better at games now) whilst keeping that nostalgic feeling alive. It's a game that doesn't have many bells and whistles, but it really doesn't need them. If you have played Croc in the past, it's almost exactly the same as playing it back in the days of the PS1. Jumping, running, and tail w...
