Child of Light is like a blast from the past, capturing the essence of a classic JRPG from the genre’s heyday and refining it with a fresh coat of modern polish. The art design and audio is gorgeous, the combat is simple and fun, with no ultra-complicated busywork to get...
Clicking ‘Delete Local Content’ on the game “Moebius: Empire Rising” in my Steam Library. The skull puzzle in the Paris Catacombs was quite nice too.
Familiarity breeds contempt, or so they say. But I don’t think this well-worn phrase applies in all circumstances. In the case of Trials Fusion, it would seem that familiarity has bred, well, simply, familiarity. Yes, it feels like we’ve been here before, partly because we have. But when it’s executed...
The review’s already gigantic and there’s no way I’ll mention everything I want to, so I’ll keep things brief in the summary. If you’re after a more single-player-quest-focused MMO with an Elder Scrolls feel, with a helpful community that will rush to aid you at every problem, and don’t mind...
With the amount of great action games on the market there is simply no reason that you should give Yaiba: Ninja Gaiden Z a try. It is a shoddily made, awful mess.
Warlock 2: The Exiled is a bit tame, as far as ‘sequels’ go, but it makes all the right noises. The titular new game mode breaks up the game space into smaller ‘shards’ that you have to conquer one at a time, as you fight your way back to Ardania...
The story of The Wolf Among Us takes a huge leap forward in A Crooked Mile, although for every answer there’s two more questions. Hopefully Telltale won’t finish with an unsatisfying ending like Lost did but right now at the series mid-point I’m on the edge of my seat. Episode...
Smite
Speaking as someone who’s dabbled around but never really caught the MOBA bug, I think SMITE has the potential to be a real game-changer for the genre. That simple switch to a third-person view completely changes the dynamic, making for a more action-packed and exciting experience that’s welcoming for beginners,...
Since I never played the earlier games, I can’t make the call as to whether or not this game was worth waiting 11 years for. Saying that, I’ve been waiting since I saw the game at GamesCom last year to get my hands on it, and it was definitely worth...
Cloudbuilt is a pretty game with a strong incentive to replay. If your primary interest is in a story, it’s probably not for you. If you’re more intrigued by jetpacks, rocket boosts, wall-running and the thrill of flying off a ramp as you make your way to levels end as...
Betrayer is a hugely atmospheric and unique game, with a cool exploration/survival thrust that never gets frustrating thanks to some excellent sound and visual design, but it’s really let down by these two major flaws. It desperately wants to be scary but never manages it, but most importantly it gets...
Does Reaper of Souls justify its asking price of a full game? If it only presented itself with Act V then no, but the inclusion of an all-new-ish character class and Adventure Mode does soothe the sting. Reaper of Souls, in conjunction with the Loot 2.0 patch, finally brings us...
