Despite it all, however, Exist Archive: The Other Side of the Sky still manages to be a fantastically fun JRPG. With the genre’s trademark capacity for melodrama and overemotional set pieces is all over it, the game stands as a testament to a genre in the middle of a comeback. A series...
All in all, Mantis Burn Racing is a title you can’t go far wrong with if you enjoy a bit of casual racing. The presentation is spot-on, and the game is effortlessly fun to play with its responsive controls and thoroughly enjoyable handling. Hopefully the loading times are addressed in a patch...
Overall, it isn’t hard to tell that the time I spent with the game was a pleasant experience. In fact, I would compare Clustertruck to a good Monty Python sketch: incredibly silly, beautifully charming and wonderfully crafted. Landfall Games have crafted a brilliant indie game that you must play if you’re...
Azure Striker Gunvolt 2 is a short, but well crafted experience that plays it safe. That’s not to degrade it at all as I feel it is technically better than the original, especially with another playable character aboard. It’s not as fresh, but the gameplay is still fantastic albeit perhaps a...
In summary, Rogue Wizards is a great game, even if it is marred by a flat story and an almost game-defining series of difficulty spikes. Fortunately, the game manages to avoid this unflattering label by instead defining itself through its predominately tremendous gameplay, tense moments of apprehensive combat, and a...
That being said, I still can’t help but recommend Lichtspeer due to its really fun concept, music, design, and easy to learn controls. If you’re not convinced, just watch their trailer and I’m sure that you will be. It’s a game that doesn’t take itself too seriously, and it gave me quite...
What do you expect though? The Journey was the biggest move in the FIFA franchise for years and expecting more than a new mode is wishful. The fact remains that FIFA will continue to sell ridiculous numbers of copies with nothing more than updated rosters and stats. So having something,...
Dragon Quest Builders is both a fantastic game and a testament to the incredible versatility of the Dragon Quest series. It is a culmination of everything that the series is known and loved for, combined with the strongest elements of Minecraft. With solid gameplay, a gorgeous world, and genuinely funny...
Rise of Iron is nothing but a stop-gap between Destiny as it is and the inevitable sequel that will hopefully overhaul the whole thing and turn it into something fun instead of something stale and facile. It’s a way for Bungie and Activision to raise some capital with a minimum of...
With its elegant design, solid gameplay and a narrative that keeps you engaged, Aragami is a wonderful return – and tribute – to the old formula of classic stealth. There are some niggles here and there that can be rather irritating, but it’s not enough to put a black mark on...
Zenith
Other tiny issues blight the experience, such as being able to quaff potions mid cut-scene and in inventory panels by mistake and getting caught on pieces of terrain with the terrible animations. A lacklustre combat and loot experience seriously damages what could have been a very funny and compelling adventure....
Sometimes, you just want a casual game to take your mind off everything. Then, after a little while, you realize you’re not stimulated enough by it. Laser Disco Defenders bridges the gap between casual and hardcore in brilliant fashion. Though you’ll be challenged and may get frustrated, the game plays...
