Latest Reviews
A modern day alternative to Gauntlet, whose innate shallowness and overreliance on random generation is balanced out by some fun combat and great co-op action.
A fast-paced and accessible turn-based action game that if anything feels constrained by the predictable nature of the Gears Of War universe.
An attempt to simplify and streamline XCOM sounds like a disaster in the making but the original’s tense turn-based combat is still highly entertaining even in this reduced form.
A competent remaster of a story mode that, while it still has the ability to impress, feels old-fashioned, shallow, and grossly overpriced.
A significant improvement on the reboot and while there are still a few flaws the core combat is some of the best in any first person shooter this generation.
Animal Crossing finally gets a sequel that moves the franchise forward, in a surprisingly timely release that is perfect for this year in terms of both its gameplay and its philosophy.
One of the best remakes ever, not because of its loving recreation of the original Half-Life but because it dares to change and improve it.
A highly enjoyable action romp, with a winning sense of humour and a hugely entertaining range of unusually varied weapons.
A thoroughly uninteresting roguelike that undermines the most compelling elements of both the genre and the Pokémon universe.
Kunai
A competent Metroidvania with some attractive visuals and fun gimmicks, but they can’t hide the fact that the game underneath is far less inspired than it first seems.
A competent enough clone of Final Fantasy Tactics but unlike the TV show it lacks any real sense of imagination or invention.
Its enemies might be mindless but while it’s very one note the gameplay in Zombie Army 4 offers some surprisingly engrossing co-operative action.
