The Casting of Frank Stone – PS5 Review

The Casting of Frank Stone takes the universe of Dead by Daylight (with original story) and turns it into the interactive storytelling style that I know and love from Supermassive Games. There are two versions of the game, standard (£32.99) and deluxe (£39.99). The deluxe version includes instant access to the “Cutting Room Floor” and some additional outfits. Honestly, I prefer playing the killer myself. Now, I’m not such a fan of the actual gameplay style of Dead by Daylight, but I enjoy the lore it has. That’s why I was happy to see The Casting of Frank Stone in this kind of gameplay style. I have played a good few of Supermassive Games previous titles, such as Until Dawn, Dark Pictures series and The Quarry. All fantastic games in my opinion. I’m really hoping the The Casting of F...

Vampire Survivors – PS5 Review

Vampire Survivors is a 2022 roguelike shoot'em up game developed and published by Luca Glanace. The game has been so popular that Glanace went on to found 25 person strong studio Poncle, who work solely on the game. Vampire Survivors is initially set in Italy, where hordes of monsters have been summoned by the face of the game, our very own evil Bisconte Draculó. Which very closely resembles the tale of Count Dracula. He has set monsters upon the land to ravage. The Belpaese family and other heroic survivors take it upon themselves to hunt down and defeat Draculó. The later introduced DLCs include more heroes, more locations and even more chaotic fun than before! The game had been in an early access period from December 2021 and has now finally hit the PlayStation storefront. After a lo...

Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 – PC Review

Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 is a follow-up to the first Space Marine game that was released back in 2011. Developed by Saber Interactive and published by Focus Entertainment. With a 3rd person aspect and combining a hack-n-slash with a shoot-em-up, Space Marine 2 is by far the most brutal game I have played in a long time! Releasing on PC, PS5 and Xbox X|S it utilises the amazing Swarm Engine, first seen in the immensely popular World War Z. Space Marine 2 will be fully crossplay from day 1! Space Marine 2 - Making Destiny Look Like a Disney Film Warhammer 40,000, in some shape or form, will have waltzed into your gaming life at some point. For me it was during the early 90s, my school had a Warhammer after-school club. Carefully painted lead figurines were deployed onto a makesh...

Across The Obelisk – Switch Review

Across the Obelisk, developed by Dreamsite Games and published by Paradox Interactive, is a roguelike deckbuilding game that pulls players into a world of card-based strategy. In this fantasy adventure, you'll craft powerful decks, make crucial decisions, and lead a party of heroes through a turmoil-filled realm. The game's blend of strategic depth, replayability, and cooperative elements offers an engaging experience that can be enjoyed solo or with friends. They didn't just make it Across the Obelisk. They smashed it. The mix of strategic deckbuilding and a rogue-lite element hooked me from the start. Like Darkest Dungeon, but with cards, Across the Obelisk offers tactical depth and beautiful hand-drawn art, but with the added excitement of crafting powerful decks and making impactfu...

Killer Klowns From Outer Space – PS5 Review

Killer Klowns from Outer Space: The Game is a 7v3 asymmetrical horror game based on the 1988 movie of the same name, releasing on June 4th, 2024, on Steam, Xbox Series S/X and PS5 can Killer Klowns fill that Friday the 13th shaped hole in our hearts? Ki-Ki-Ki-Honk-Honk-Honk I love a good Asym game, sinking thousands of hours into dead by daylight, Texas chainsaw massacre, and others. the loss of Friday the 13th the game was a devastating loss to the community, especially for those who relished stalking players in atmospheric maps as the menacing Jason Voorhees, or as a victim evading his pursuit. Thankfully, Killer Klowns From Outer Space: The Game (mostly) succeeds in being as chaotic and fun, and even more so in some areas. Gameplay Killer Klowns From Outer Space: The Game, or as I’l...

V Rising – PS5 Review

V Rising is a game about a vampire who really needs to get up an escalator by any means necessary. It was released on PS5 And PC on June 11th after an early access period lasting two years. You really are the most devious vampire... I enjoyed what I played of V Rising in its early access state, but felt like the more linear progression system held it back, how has my opinion changed since? Find out! Gameplay V Rising is an online survival game first and foremost with a lot of inspiration from the Diablo series evident in its HUD, isometric view, and artstyle. The game may look similar to the Diablo series and an ARPG at first (even pointed out by a fellow writer when I was typing up this review) but V Rising carves out its niche with its survival gameplay.
