Train Sim World 5: Thomas & Friends – PC Review

As a train lover, I grew up with Thomas the Tank Engine. So when Dovetail Games announced a Thomas & Friends pack, I was excited. No, that doesn't do it justice. I was over the moon. My head derailed with a million different thoughts of what could be. Thankfully, now we have the Train Sim World 5: Thomas & Friends DLC. How Does Thomas Eat? He Chew-Chews While you might be hoping to journey around Sodor, unfortunately, that isn't the case. Which brings us onto something to be aware of.

Cinemaster Cinema Simulator – PC Review

Running a cinema isn’t something I would want to do, since I prefer gaming. But when Cinemaster Cinema Simulator popped up, I couldn’t deny I was curious. The game is developed by Overload Games and is looking to release on steam on March 27th. There is a demo out just in case you want to try before you buy, so click here. Time to catch an early screening. Gameplay No real set-up or story for Cinemaster Cinema Simulator, but we do get to name the place. After that, we get a brief tutorial on how everything works, and then we just rinse and repeat. You can select from a large choice of comedically named movies. Once picked, you’re able to organize the screening times. Major tip: don’t screen a movie all day otherwise you won’t get peace to replenish the confectioneries. It’s a pain w...

Two Point Museum – PC Review

Two Point Studios has dropped another corker! This time you get to run your very own museum, in the aptly titled, Two Point Museum. It takes the well loved formula from Hospital and Campus and turns the fun factor up to 11. Museums Rock! Released at the start of March on Steam, Two Point Museum has got an incredible following. But what exactly makes this game the high scorer that it is? Well before I give it my own reward, let's look at what makes this game tick. Gameplay Playing on the PC in my opinion is the best way to play this type of game. Being able to chill out in your chair and mostly just using your mouse to play through. Its relaxing, enjoyable, and yet in some instances a little bit stressful. Thankfully the latter doesn't turn up all that often. Two Point Museum allows ...
