From developer Entertainment Forge by way of publisher Ratalaika comes dialogue-rich point and click adventure Scheming Through The Zombie Apocalypse: The Beginning. Opening with friends Hank and Larry settling down for a relaxing evening as civilisation burns outside, the Zombie Apocalypse informs their movie choice in terms of Shaun of […]

Scheming Through The Zombie Apocalypse: The Beginning – PS4 Review

September 30, 2019 in PS4 / Reviews tagged point and click / ratalaika / zombies by Ian

They may not quite be billions but the undead threat that They Are Billions presents might be the best we’ve ever seen in any form of media. Some might cite The Walking Dead (either as a comic or TV show), the Romero films (or the epic Dawn of the Dead remake from […]

They Are Billions – PS4 Review

August 3, 2019 in PS4 tagged hordes / RTS / strategy / they are billions / zombies by Richie

It’s odd how the release calendar works sometimes. World War Z saw a movie adaptation in 2013 and now a game arrives slightly ahead of Sony’s own zombie effort. Saber Interactive are hoping this won’t be lost in the shuffle. Will it be smothered by the swarm? A co-op squad […]

World War Z – PS4 Review

I’d class myself as quite a Resident Evil fan. I’ve played all the mainline entries and got the platinum on the majority that offer it as well. To this day I’d rank the 1998 release of Resident Evil 2 up there with the best of them. The setting, music, multiple […]

Resident Evil 2 – PS4 Review

Before EA turned into franchising behemoths, they released a fondly remembered Megadrive game, Mutant League Football. Mutant Football League is a clear homage to that game from days of yore, updated this year with the Dynasty Edition suffix and is nothing to do with EA, we might add. At the outset, […]

Mutant Football League: Dynasty Edition – PS4 Review

This update of the 2016 PC title Riddled Corpses is a cross-buy title for PS4 and Vita that would give you cirrhosis of the liver if there was a drinking game based on current trends in the indie games market. Twin-stick shooter? Drink! Rogue-lite? Drink! Pixel graphics! Drink! Zombies! DRINNNKKKKK! But despite […]

Riddled Corpses EX – PS4/Vita Review

Death Road To Canada had us interested from the outset. Retro-styled, zombies and rogue-like mechanics? Sold! The game is presented in a cute pixel art style which initially seems rather at odds with the subject matter at hand. After a while though it makes no odds and you’ll be cleaving undead […]

Death Road To Canada – PS4 Review

May 8, 2018 in PS4 tagged #ohcanada / #roadtrip / roguelike / zombies by Ian

In an indie scene that is somewhat bereft of fresh ideas, sometimes all you can do is throw in an extra gameplay element and hope that it adds a little extra something to make it all worthwhile. This is definitely what Do My Best, the two man team behind The […]

The Final Station – PS4 Review

September 5, 2016 in PS4 tagged 2d / indie / the final station / trains / zombies by Richie

And so the end has come, the final part in the rather brilliant The Walking Dead: Michonne miniseries. My reviews of episode 1 and 2 ( here and here) have praised the story and the urgency of the action. It’s time now to find if this final instalment lives up […]

A month down the line and its time to join Michonne again as she blats some more zombies. We all know the score when it comes to Telltale games, high on the story low on the interaction. Nothing has changed here and rather than review the game, its more a […]

April 6, 2016 in PS4 tagged brains / narrative driven / short / telltale / zombies by Steven

Full disclosure, I’ve never read the Walking Dead. I’ve also only ever watched the first season of the TV show, I got piss bored at the farm season 2. As a result when I saw this was being released my first thought was, how the hell do you pronounce Michonne. […]

Resident Evil 0 was probably the last Resident Evil in the ‘classic’ style that I played. Released on the GameCube after the excellent Resident Evil Remaster convinced me to get the system it promised more of the beautiful prerendered backgrounds but with some ideas of its own. Originally intended for […]
