Model Builder Preview

Model Builder by developers Moonlit and Kuba Wójcik is, as it sounds, a model building simulator. Everyone at some time in their life has probably built a model, with varying outcomes. Published by Green Man Gaming will this be a tedious affair or a total breeze? Model Builder - 0% Chance of Gluing Fingers Together! I am quietly optimistic, having reviewed Balsa Model Flight Simulator recently. If you like what you read, give the demo a chance over in the Steam store! Gameplay Before I start I will say that there was a disclaimer that it was a game in progress therefore I will concentrate on the main gameplay and only report if there are any game-breaking bugs. From the off, you can select from a campaign and sandbox mode. Sandbox needs no intro therefore it was straight ont...

Sonic Colours Ultimate Review

Time and time again it has been said that Sonic's transition to 3D hasn't been as easy as, say, a certain plumber's. For that reason, I didn't even touch a 3D Sonic game until 2011 when Sonic Generations came out. It's also no secret that I am a HUGE Sonic fan and my heart lies in his heyday on the Sega Mega Drive and I didn't want anything taking that away from me. I really enjoyed Sonic Generations, but apparently, I've missed out by skipping the Sonic Adventure games on the Dreamcast. Given the reputation, I think it's acceptable to approach new 3D Sonic games with caution. Sonic Colours Ultimate - Is it Heads and 'Tails' Above the Rest? But Sonic Colours Ultimate isn't strictly a new Sonic game. It's a remaster of Sonic Colours which was released in 2010 exclusively on the Nintendo W...
