A fun isometric role-playing game with turn-based combat and an in-depth crafting system. Classic combat featured in a technology-infused fantasy land, is Battle Chasers: Nightwar everything that it promises to be? Battle Chasers: Nightwar was originally funded by a kick starter project back in 2015 and is now available on Steam Early Access.

Being a staff pick on Kickstarter and funding over $850,000 which was over $300,000 more than they needed, the game's prospects are strong. Gameplay Having invested a couple of hours into the game, all I can say is that I wanted MORE!

Induction Review – Mind Altering Puzzle Perception

Induction is an indie game that centres on using time travel to create time loops, in order to solve mind bending puzzles. Whilst this concept will be familiar to fans of Valves series Portal, it is used in different ways to great effect in Induction, and has caused me to ponder the solution to puzzles for days on end. You take control of a cube and can move in 4 different directions to push objects around and reach the goal area of that level which appears surprisingly easy at first. However you are swiftly introduced to the key ability of this cube, which is the power to create one clone of your cube that will then play out every action you have performed up to the point you made a clone. The aim then is to manipulate a variety of objects across multiple timelines to proceed into the ...

Late Shift Review – The Decisions Are You

Late Shift is a high stakes FMV crime thriller. Forced into a brutal London heist, you must choose your own adventure in this interactive cinematic experience. With adaptable storylines that lead to one of seven conclusions. Gameplay You play the character of Matt, a valet parking attendant in London. Decisions that you make determine his actions throughout Late Shift. These decisions vary from whether you should give a pretty blonde keys to a high performance sports car, to deciding whether to go up or down in an elevator. After I found the first ending and getting attached to Matt all bets were off in the following playthroughs. I sent him running from gunfire, abandoning any kind of selfless attitudes and only thinking about myself. Each experience followed generally the same story...

Darknet Review – Taking A Dip Into A Hacking World

Darknet is a game where you're placed in the shoes of an elite hacker. Building up reputation and a whole lot of money. Everyone likes earning money right? unfortunately, the money isn't real but we can always dream. The game is all about hacking and the formula works great, the concept of hacking to me is absolutely awesome. What Darknet does right is the fact it's more complex hacking than the likes of watchdogs and Deus Ex , where they opt for simple one button hacks. It's a great balance for being fun, simple to learn but hard to master. All fit into a nice little puzzle game at a great price. Upon starting the game up i was thrown straight into the tutorial, working my way into the hacking world. It starts you off in the middle of a digital sphere. surrounded by ma...

Siegecraft Commander Review – Towers of Terror

Siegecraft commander by Blowfish studios is the latest instalment of the popular siegecraft franchise. With a combination of twitch mechanics and positional tactics, you are tasked with building a fortress in its unique branching structure with each specialised tower giving differing skills to your ever-growing fortress. Everything that is user controlled is performed by adjusting the angle and trajectory of projectiles, firing both parts of your fortress and weapons upon the enemies that have only one mission, to stop you from destroying their keep. Gameplay The game itself is spread into two areas, the single player missions which see you choosing to be the Knights or the Lizards and taking on each mission as they come. Using some tactics, which I struggled with at first but eventually...
