Having played Aragami when it first launched in 2016, I found it to be a top-tier stealth game with great level design and core gameplay, but it wasn’t perfect by any means. I was excited to see it being ported to Switch as an excuse to play the game again...
Anthem
Bioware has had a rough time over the past few years. With the controversial Mass Effect 3 ending, the boring Dragon Age: Inquisition, and the disappointing Mass Effect: Andromeda, many have speculated that they’ve lost their magic. Can Bioware’s newest IP end the streak of bad luck and bring Bioware back...
My experience with the God Eater franchise is admittedly limited. I’ve only played a dozen or so hours of Rage Burst on PC before. It was a highly entertaining Monster Hunter-like game that made a surprisingly good transition to PC. God Eater 3 is the first game in the series...
Odallus: The Dark Call is a metroidvania style game that is a callback to the NES days of the genre. Odallus first launched on PC in 2015 after a successful crowdfunding campaign and has just made it’s way to the Switch. The story follows Haggis, who is on a personal...
Resident Evil is one of my all time favourite franchises. It’s the series that introduced me to survival horror but it has has stumbled throughout the last generation, focusing more and more on mindless action while ignoring its horror roots.
Genesis Alpha One is a collection of good ideas which can be roughly summarised as a combination of FTL: Faster than Light and the Aliens movie. You play as a captain of a corporation sent out to populate planets in the galaxy. This is exactly my type of game, but...
Below
This one has been a long time coming. Originally announced way back in 2013 as an Xbox exclusive there were five years of delays and PR silence. But BELOW was finally released. So how does it live up to expectations?
Insurgency: Sandstorm is a tactical military first person shooter that focuses on being as immersive and realistic as possible, sometimes succeeding, sometimes failing. Disappointingly enough, the story mode for the game got canned before release, so if you were looking for a plot or a decent reason to why you’re...
Stardust Galaxy Warriors: Stellar Climax is an old school shoot ’em up that originally released on PC back in 2015 and just came to Nintendo Switch. Set in the year 2087, you play as a police force whose job is to restore peace across the universe. The story is presented...
Nairi: Tower of Shirin from HomeBearStudio is a point-and-click adventure game set in the city of Shirin. The game boasts a unique art style and an intriguingly strong narrative. I was expecting your run of the mill point-and-click game, however Nairi was big surprise for me.
Darksiders III
Darksiders is finally back after a six year wait since the last game. Under a new iteration of THQ and a new studio made up of developers from the Darksiders II team, this is a game we’ve been waiting for but never thought we’d actually play. This time we take control...
Ark: Survival Evolved is a survival PvPvE game that draws inspiration from games such as Rust whilst giving it’s own unique spin on the genre. I’ve played Ark before and enjoyed the unique and interesting Sci-Fi world. However after just a few hours of the Switch version, I’ve encountered a...
