Somerville is a delightfully bizarre, physics-based puzzle adventure game that was developed by some of the former talent that created Playdead’s pair of modern classics: Limbo and Inside. And yet at the same time it plays very differently from those offerings, reminding me more of the seminal early-’90s classic Out of This World than Limbo

It’s been an age since I felt so captivated by such a simple adventure game as Pentiment. A rousing, steadily-paced detective thriller set in the Late Medieval Bavarian countryside, the storybook art style inspired by colorful manuscripts of the era is downright enthralling. While the gameplay basically consists of looking around for clues, questioning townsfolk,

This new DLC feels well timed. In a week where EA decided to call it time on Project Cars, the world wondered whether there was still room for racing titles. Forza Horizon aside, the genre has shrunk over recent years. Then Assetto Corsa Competizione is here with two new DLC packs to remind everyone it

There’s a bit of us that was excited for Mozart Requiem, hoping that it was a follow on to AVICII Invector, just with Mozart’s finest classics splattered on top. In fact, when we discovered that it was in fact a game in which we’d be caught up in a war of powers, as occult ceremonies

For the most part we associate Thrustmaster with some of the most complex of third party gaming accessories. That’s a point hammered home when you consider that we’ve previously been hands on with their T248 Wheel for racing or the T.Flight Full Kit X for when we decide to take to the skies. Hell, you

I swear that every other game I’ve played this year has me kneeling in the dirt to plant strawberries. If it’s not my recurring addiction to Disney Dreamlight Valley, it’s Garden Story, Ooblets, Slime Rancher 2, Hokko Life, Bit Orchard…the list goes on. The amount of time I’ve spent in virtual soil this year could

I have always been enthralled by the spooky ghost stories that come from southeast Asia. They are always brilliantly told and at times absolutely terrifying. Paper Ghost Stories: 7PM is part of an anthology of ghost stories that tells a Malaysian tale, feeling like a bite-sized prologue to some upcoming releases which are due to

Sonic Frontiers doesn’t limit you to a small, carefully curated prix fixe menu of things to try. Instead, it takes the all-you-can-eat buffet approach, throwing new ideas at you from start to finish, without really seeming to care if they’re fresh and appetizing or looking wilted and limp under the heat lamp.

As Elden Ring continues to dominate the Souls-like landscape, other games are beginning to appear on the outskirts, trying to bring something new to the experience. One such title is The Last Oricru, another Souls-like game, another action-RPG, but this time with a bit of an ace up its sleeve.  Coming from developers GoldKnights, The

There are worse games to base your 79p, no-achievement game on. The original Super Mario Bros is a classic, there’s no doubt about it, and Super Pixel Kid is a gushing love letter to it. It’s got the same love for bottom-bouncing, blocks that shatter once a head connects with them, the shrill sound of

It is easy to be blase about another KEMCO game coming to the Xbox consoles these days. See, this review marks a bit of a personal landmark, the twentieth KEMCO title that I’ve played and reviewed since 2017 – an average of four games a year.   The latest is that of Silver Nornir, yet another

Who would win in a fight? Chris “The Boulder” Redfield or Leon “The Hair” S. Kennedy? Could Hunk take Ada Wong? What would happen if Claire Redfield fought Jill Valentine?

After beating Resident Evil Village the first time, I was extremely satisfied with how the horror story played out from start to finish. When Capcom announced it was making an expansion, I knew it would be a tough act to follow. Unfortunately, the three parts of the Winters’ Expansion aren’t up to it. Its new

Ahh, the old holiday romance; a rite of passage for many a-teenager through the years. A chance to meet someone who would never otherwise associate with. Most are brief, rarely lasting longer than the holiday itself. But they’re always special. Especially, when they hide a secret. Find out what that secret is in 7 Days
