Creatures of Ava – Xbox Review

My relationship with creature-collecting games is complicated. I occasionally enjoy them, but often find many aspects of them uninspired or frustrating. I left Pokemon behind in Gen 2. So when one comes along that subverts my expectations on several levels, it’s both wonderfully refreshing and a warm hug at the same time. Creatures of Ava by Inverge Studios and Chibig is that refreshing warm hug. A “creature-saver” rather than collector, you take control of Vic, a scientist tasked with saving the creatures of the planet Ava before it succumbs to an infection known as the Withering. With the help of a new friend, Vic stumbles upon an ancient staff, capable of cleansing the infection. What begins as a simple rescue and evacuation soon becomes a journey of empathy and understanding, for bo...

Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree PS5 Review

Review bombs, patches, and 5 million concurrent players - From Software has outdone themselves with the Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree DLC. Introducing new NPCs, unique bosses and expanding lore surrounding Miquella, Shadow of the Erdtree raises the standards yet again. With 80 new boss fights (11 of which are remembrance bosses), over 100 new weapons and 11 new NPCs, Shadow of the Erdtree can be viewed as a standalone game on its own and is definitely worth the £35 price point. Before you read this, yes I used my mimic, yes I ended up using a bleed build. No I don’t want to hear about it, let me be bad at the game okay? Spoilers ahead for the entirety of the DLC !!!! Gameplay As with any From Software DLC, the Shadow of the Erdtree is locked behind two bosses. Players mu...
