The game is a joy to play cooperatively, though, with two players and two Bobs wandering around the world and getting up to mischief. You’re given even more license to bend the rules and cheat, with all of the puzzles designed for one person. Sure, you can simply divide up...
Quadrilateral Cowboy’s a game that gets hacking right – if you permit me calling it that – with the command line interface brilliantly letting you manipulate the world and use the other tools of the cyberpunk heisting trade. It’s effortlessly cool, from a slightly nerdy retro perspective, but hidden beneath...
The puzzle-like missions of Crush Your Enemies are a lot of fun, as you race against the clock in a frantic rush to defeat the enemies, or simply grind with sheer weight of numbers. Ignoring the crass sense of humour and forgetable story, Crush Your Enemies does an admirable job...
Despite being a standalone game, Trials of the Blood Dragon is at best a quirky aside to Trials Fusion. With so many truly ridiculous ideas in the story, they’ve given themselves free license to experiment and try new things, but so many of them simply don’t come off and aren’t that much...
At its best, Mirror’s Edge Catalyst is a joyous flight across the rooftops of a gorgeous city, with a grace that belies the weight and impact of Faith’s movement, but DICE seem to forget this on a few occasions, dragging it down with combat that brings the free running to a halt. It’s...
Marrying Paradox’s particular brand of real time grand strategy to the familiarity of space and 4X empire building has worked wonders, making this the most welcoming and accessible of their games that I’ve played. There’s a few minor niggles, but it’s compelling and it’s easy to lose yourself in Stellaris...
You can double the potential carnage with the game’s local co-op mode. There’s a Cultist in the Breach who is the second player’s character, whose starting loadout and skills are designed with that role in mind. It’s perhaps a shame that this is offline only, but it creates a new...
You can play through this with either a co-op buddy sat next to you or with an AI partner, and that’s an important dynamic. In co-op, you can pass between players to get a better angle of attack, but the AI buddy tends to be there more for backup, taking...
And there’s a potentially infinite number of tracks for you to play on as well, thanks to the Trackbuilder. On the simplest level, you can let the game generate a track for you at random, approve it and get racing, but you also have three levels of tools to let...
By and large, The Division lives up to the years of hype and high expectations. At its core, it marries solid cover-based shooting with a loot heavy RPG and an enticingly beautiful setting, but it really comes together when you can team up with friends and take on enemies, whether...
Completely changing the environment that you play in and the way in which you get around that world was a bold move by Techland, but they’ve taken the challenge in their stride, and created something which is often just pure fun to play. If you’re a fan of Dying Light,...
Unfortunately, Fat Princess Adventures comes across as something of a missed opportunity. For one thing, it’s a genre shift which will disappoint those who want more of the multiplayer carnage from the original, but while there’s still fun to be had, this is a fairly shallow game which leans too...
