F1 Manager 2023 – PC Review

The development team at Frontier Developments have brought us a new addition to the sporting simulation genre with F1 Manager 2023. Players can put themselves into the shoes of Toto Wolff or Guenther Steiner and battle their way to the top of the championship. F1 Manager 2023 is available to buy now on PC, PlayStation and Xbox for between £45 - 55 dependent on the system. Is F1 Manager 2023 in pole position for the best simulation sport game? I've only been an F1 fan for the past 3 years, so I am yet to experience the highs and lows that many of you have experienced. However, when I heard that F1 Manager was getting a new instalment this year, I was eager to get stuck in. Let me know in the comments if you are enjoying this year's instalment of F1 Manager and if it is an upgrade on the p...

Gunsmith Simulator – PC Review

I'm checking out Gunsmith Simulator, one of three games due to come out from the developers at Gamehunters. If you're a gun enthusiast or you just like guns. Then you can pick it up when it releases on Steam on July 19th this year. Welcome to the gun show I enjoy playing the simulation genre. If you've seen a few of my other reviews, Gunsmith Simulator looks just as interesting as the others. I've always been curious about dismantling a gun, and I understand that I could simply google it. But where's the fun in that? Gameplay Though Gunsmith Simulator doesn't focus on a real story, the player does receive occasional emails from their Grandpa. The first email says that your Grandpa wants you to take over a Gunsmith workshop and that it won't be easy. He also sends a Colt M1911 that...

Hit your Breaking Point Played here on PS5 the game is also available on PS4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, Steam and Epic Games. Gameplay Precision Drive Technology delivers greater control for players using a controller to play. It gives a feel to the driving that has never been present in any F1 game I have ever played in the past. Start to lose the back end of your hybrid beast from getting a bit trigger happy with the accelerator and you can now correct the slide with confidence. This allows you to push the limits knowing that you are one with the car rather than a passenger who is along for the ride. The game is broken down into 3 main sec...

Valthirian Arc: Hero School Story 2 – PS5 Review

Valthirian Arc: Hero School Story 2 is a blend of JRPG-lite and build simulation genres, developed by Agate Games.

Havendock – PC Preview

There was a time once when the oceans were full of only fish and whales. Beautiful mermaids would swim freely without the fear of banging into driftwood or having a plane crash on them. Times have changed, and YYZ has brought us Havendock to reflect on the different times that the world is in today. Do you have the skills to not only survive a wreck but thrive from it and let others thrive with you? Well, I guess it's time to find out for me. Pretty sure I'll need some supplies, so it's a packed lunch and a waterproof coat ready, and time to wash myself up on a little piece of land. Havendock - for those whose favourite colour is maroon. Havendock has its work cut out if it's going to make an impact on the masses of settlement building games. The pressure certainly is on in this cate...
