Unsighted
Here we are again with yet another outing by Humble Games, and to no one’s surprise, yet another excellent and highly polished title. The company has been on a roll as of recent, with games like Flynn: Son of Crimson and Dodgeball Academia. Their brand new title is UNSIGHTED, a...
The original Death’s Gambit launched back in 2018, and whilst I didn’t review it back then, I enjoyed it quite a bit. It was a soulslike metroidvania title that, despite its many flaws, was an enjoyable time. It didn’t the heights of the likes of Hollow Knight, but it provided...
In Sound Mind
Horror games are my bread and butter, some of my favourite in gaming. The recent Tormented Souls was a great callback to classic survival horror, fixed cameras and all, whilst Visage was a relentless assault on the senses, providing some of the best scares in recent memory. Time try out...
It’s been a really good time for the fast paced first-person shooter with some of the best in the genre coming out in recent years. DOOM Eternal, Quake‘s surprising remaster, and the recently released Deathloop being just some stunning examples to come out over the past year or so. I...
Grime
Indie Metroidvania games are some of the best out there. They bring challenging and often time brutal gameplay in with some great level design, and often times unique mechanics as well. Although, there has been a slight oversaturation of the genre over the years. GRIME is a fantastic game that...
Neon Giant is a new indie studio formed back in 2015 by industry veterans behind some of our favourite games; DOOM, Bulletstorm, and Gears of War to name a few. Now their first game has arrived in the form of The Ascent, a futuristic cyberpunk twin-stick shooter that proves to...
Chernobylite
What happens when you take a survival game, horror title, first-person shooter, and combine it with a heist plot? You get Chernobylite, a mixture of a bunch of different genres that actually do manage to work together. First released in Early Access back in 2019 with a strong reception throughout...
Over the past few years the Monster Hunter franchise has become one of my all-time favourites. Between the fantastic Monster Hunter World, Iceborne, and Rise, I have poured hundreds upon hundreds of hours into these games and counting. I can’t seem to get enough of them. Monster Hunter Stories is...
I always appreciate when a developer announces a complete new take on a cooperative online game. There are few that stray away from the tested basic multiplayer components, so when something different comes along, it might be worth paying attention to. Hood: Outlaws and Legends is a 4v4 PvPvE game...
Resident Evil is one of those franchises that is constantly changing and evolving over the years, constantly shifting between genres, and that’s part of the reason I love it. Every single game offers a new gameplay experience. It’s not afraid of mixing things up and breaking the rules, but it’s...
The original NieR launched way back in 2010, and despite middling reviews at the time, it gained a cult following over the years. Like many, my introduction to the franchise was with the near (no pun intended) perfect NieR Automata: a cocktail of amazing gameplay, stunning world design, and an...
I’m kind of fond for games centered solely around fighting a series of bosses, or, as the kids like to call, “boss rushes”. From the ever fantastic Furi to Titan Souls, as well as Sekiro‘s separate boss rush mode, there’s something about the thrill of taking on challenging boss after...
