Coming from a small outfit called Lost in the Garden, Lightfield is a futuristic racer looking to take nods towards it’s contemporaries whilst providing it’s own take on movement and navigation. Is the aesthetic charm worth the effort? The visual treatment on offer is a nice, clean and futuristic look which […]

Lightfield – PS4 Review

It’s not easy reviewing FIFA games.  The subtle changes between iterations often leaves reviewers clutching at straws looking for something different to say from last year’s reviews.  And anyway, everyone already knows if it is a good game.  Of course it’s good.  They’ve been simulating the sport of football accurately […]

FIFA 18 – PS4 Review

Compile Heart, probably best known for the Hyperdimension Neptunia series, have a new title on the Vita in the form of Mary Skelter: Nightmares. There are similarities with the presentation but it tries to do its own thing and mostly succeeds. You play as Jack, a prisoner in the Jail, […]

Mary Skelter: Nightmares – Vita Review

RUINER is the debut title by Polish dev squad Reikon Games and it combines twin-stick shooting with a cyberpunk aesthetic, which is a combination that PS4 gamers, and reviewers, are more than familiar with.  The game stands out though thanks to developers’ commitment to the Blade Runner-esque style of the […]

End Space is a PSVR-only space shooter from Canadian VR specialists, Orange Bridge, and it has plenty in common with other space-based titles for the headset such as Space Rift and the Eve games.  It all has reminds us of the VR mission in Star Wars: Battlefront. It’ll be no […]

The third visual novel entry in the Danganronpa franchise has hit PS4 in the form of Danganronpa V3: Killing Harmony. If you’ve played either of the previous two titles then you’ll have a pretty good idea how things are going to go down. I was a little disappointed, expecting a […]

In this modern age of 16-bit action platformers, it’s quite nice to see a game with modern-ish production values and Hidden Dragon Legend: Shadow Trace (an early contender for worst title of the year) is something of a rarity in that it has actual polygons in it.  Using a 2.5D […]

A 2015 release on the PC, The Coma is a fairly traditional Korean horror tale from Devespresso Games.  Taking place among familiar corridors with familiar foes, The Coma: Recut appears on new platforms.  With some tweaks aimed at making the experience seem more like a traditional survival horror, can the definitive edition […]

Eventide 2: Sorcerer’s Mirror is another outing for the hidden object game developers Artifex Mundi.  We’ve reviewed a few of these now and I generally enjoy them.  They offer a relaxing way to spend a few hours on light puzzles and a dramatic story.  I understand these wont be for everyone […]

Eventide 2: Sorcerer’s Mirror – PS4 Review

The humble top-down racer is a genre that gets revisited quite often these days and even the much-loved Micro Machines received a recent remastering this year (albeit not a very good one). For us though, Mantis Burn Racing represents the best modern example of this type of game and it […]

Before I get into talking about 36 Fragments of Midnight go and make yourself a brew have a sit down, get comfy.  Chances are that if you had to walk to your kettle get the milk leave the tea bag to brew for a minute or two it has taken you around six […]

36 Fragments of Midnight – Vita Review

Whilst a vast swathe of modern indie games enjoy using the retro aesthetic of 8-bit pixel art, there are many other periods of retro gaming available.  Pankapu has action which harks back to the 90s platform games of old but manages to catapult the graphics into the present day. Pankapu is a story […]
