Police Simulator: Patrol Officers Preview

Ever fancied being the next Jake Peralta shouting "Nine-Nine!" or perhaps you want people to "Respect my authoritah!"? Well, you are in luck as thanks to developers Aesir Interactive you can now have that experience with the all-new Police Simulator: Patrol Officers. Yippee Ki Yay Mother Buckets! Out now in Early Access on Steam, come and join me as a play in the day in the lift of a patrol officer in the fictional American city of Brighton!

Selecting from eight female and male officers you begin by picking out the character that you want to use f...

Wreckfest PS5 Review

From Finnish developer Bugbear Entertainment comes Wreckfest, a racing and vehicular combat game published by THQ Nordic. Bugbear are no strangers to racing and demolition derby games, previously making the Flatout Series. In fact, I learned that the genre is becoming somewhat of a speciality of theirs, which initially grabbed my attention about Wreckfest. Taking this experience, Bugbear has made a game I can best describe as if Gran Turismo and Burnout had a baby and this was the result. Bugbear struck gold upon releasing the game in early access after an unsuccessful Kickstarter. As a result, the following few years allowed them to reach their goals and release the full game on PC and then on consoles. Wreckfest is available now on X-Box & Playstation as well as Windows. All ...

Developed by Piranha Games Inc., and published by Sold Out Mechwarrior 5: Mercenaries is no longer Epic Exclusive and is now also available on Steam, GOG, and Xbox.

Castle Flipper Review

Welcome to my review of Castle Flipper which is brought to us by developers Pyramid Games and publishers Ultimate Games. Castle Flipper is a medieval castle renovation game with similar traits to House Flipper. You can buy Castle Flipper now on Steam. Castle Flipper - Build Your Legacy, One Block At A Time! So I've mentioned the obvious game there. However, this is not House Flipper and it certainly has a lot of differences.

PowerWash Simulator Early Access

Futurlab has officially released the latest title they have developed and published into early access. It is a title that we have seen all over the gaming channels on social media. It also looks like one of the most satisfying simulators to this day. We are indeed talking about PowerWash Simulator! At only £15.99 (at the time of writing) on the Steam store, I am excited to jump in and do some cleaning. A sentence which I have never said before. The escape from cleaning, where you... clean? Simulator games for me can sometimes be extremely boring. On the other hand, they can sometimes be the most ridiculous addictive game since some of the old school MMO titles. However, PowerWash Simulator on the cover is essentially a cleaning simulator? Which is one of the household task which can be e...
