Starship Disco is a rhythm action title from Richard Stenson of one-man development studio Solus Games and it is, in many ways, a very typical PSVR game. Behind the simple hit the fire button on time gameplay, what you get here is an into-the-screen VR title that sees you destroying […]

Momonga Pinball Adventures by Dutch indie dev Paladin Studios is a game you’d be forgiven for letting pass you by. Especially as it dropped the week before Christmas on multiple formats. That’s if you even spotted it getting released to start with. The titular Momonga is a small Japanese flying […]

Subject 13 is Paul Cuissets’ newest game, who you may or may not know as the creator of Flashback, as well as others. Now, I liked Flashback in its day with its style and atmosphere (or at least half of it, I only really remember up to the futuristic game […]

Air Race Speed is a futuristic racer which despite looking similar to Wipeout is actually a very different game. Whereas Wipeout is going for a kind of futuristic racing league Air Race Speed is pure time trial and sees you challenging the most difficult opponent, yourself. Originally a mobile game […]

XPOSED may be a terrible name (made worse by it being all caps) but taking away the stylised nature of it, it actually speaks to what the game is all about. Based very closely on the old arcade game Qix, the game requires you to fill up screens by venturing […]

Motor Strike: Immortal Legends isn’t your standard racing game, in fact there is an argument to be made that this isn’t even a racing game. The game markets itself as an action racer and the emphasis is firmly on the action part of things. Things look nice enough with a […]

The Marvel vs. Capcom series has been one born out and maintained by miraculous circumstances. There is always a case of will they or won’t they when it comes to whether Capcom will be able to sweet talk the comic giant into allowing them to invite their colourful cast to join […]

Coming from Different Cloth, Drive!Drive!Drive‘s basic premise provides much intrigue. It’s a racing game with the twist being you race on multiple tracks at the same time. When I heard of this concept, I wondered just how this could be achieved. In short, you race on one level whilst having the […]

The PlayStation 4 has been getting a few point and clickers recently and The Little Acre is the latest entry into this genre. I’ve reviewed a couple of these now and as I’ve said before the success of any point and click game will rest on it’s story and characters. […]

Back in the nineties when VR was first announced as a possibility it was enough to get the hearts and minds of young gamers racing. I think at some point we all envisioned the likelihood of one day being in a massive room, with headset on that we could traverse […]

Bridge Constructor. That’s a strong name. Straight to the point, no messing around. These days games have gone the same way as straight-to-DVD movies by having terrible colon-separated names. Bridge Constructor tells you what’s up. You build bridges. Each level is a gap. On each side of the gap is […]

Here it is, the game that was announced as Final Fantasy Versus XIII back in 2006 has been released, renamed as a main line title, Final Fantasy XV. Now the general rule of thumb is if a game has been in development hell for that long then it’s not going […]
