How We Soar is one of those games.  Just like half of the PSVR catalogue, 90% of indie games and 100% of walking simulators, this isn’t a game where the gameplay is the star.  The experience, if you want to call it that, is what is being highlighted here and […]

How We Soar – PSVR Review

Aqua Moto Racing Utopia is a water based racing game from Zordix AB out now on the PS4. Its stunt and turbo based gameplay places it firmly in the arcade racer camp but does it rival the cabinets of old? As you might be able to guess from the title […]

Rolling Bob appears to be a game aimed at the kids.  It is bright and colourful with characters that look like they’ve been ripped from a CGI kids show.  Notionally a mix of puzzle and platform genres the game sees you controlling Bob as he has to collect the BITS […]

As motorsports go, NASCAR is probably my least-visited. As a spectator sport, it seems great but, as a participant, I can’t quite shake the monotonous nature of it. Here’s hoping NASCAR Heat Evolution changes my perspective. It all looks nice. You can certainly feel they’re working within a budget but […]

NASCAR Heat Evolution – PS4 Review

  For a while there back in 2010, it seemed like everyone was playing Pinball FX 2.  The first game was a pretty decent pinball simulator but the sequel seemed bigger and better in every way, despite not being any kind of pinball expert, I found myself addicted to the […]

Pinball FX 2 VR – PSVR Review

Based on the Markus Heitz novel of the same name, King Art Games are attempting to provide tactical-RPG fans with something a little different. Will the small package punch above it’s weight or will the diminutive figure dwindle under the weight of expectation? First thing’s first, the source material gets […]

As a youngling I was rather fond of a particular ITV game show. It wasn’t your typical game show with questions and big money prizes but instead one that focused more on a macabre medieval setting that permeated through its dark, dungeon and dragons-esque hall crawling. This show was called […]

Crystal Rift – PSVR Review

The VITA doesn’t get many releases nowadays which is a shame, but it’s nice to see some indie developers are still supporting the platform even if this is as part of their overall mobile strategy.  Stranded: A Mars Adventure is such a game.  Developed for mobile platforms this is also […]

Stranded: A Mars Adventure – VITA Review

Games come in all shapes and sizes and for every sprawling 100 hour narrative epic you’ve got the exact opposite in a short arcade like experience.  The Keeper of 4 Elements is resolutely in the later camp.  The developers Char Studio have used their experience with mobile games to create […]

The Keeper of 4 Elements – PS4 Review

One of my major pet hates in gaming is when a mobile phone shooter gets ported to a console but the gameplay isn’t updated to suit a joypad. One example was the dreadful Aces of the Luftwaffe, which was a shoot ’em up that had you autofiring, a necessity on […]

Battalion Commander – PS4/Vita Review

Horror games are great when done well, and Amnesia: The Dark Descent was one of the good ones when it was released on the PC back in 2010.  It has now come over to the PS4 as a full package of the game, DLC and sequel. With recent evolutions in […]

Amnesia Collection – PS4 Review

Hue by Fiddlesticks was released on the PS4 a few months ago and now there is a Vita version with cross buy. That’s the version of this unique puzzler I’ve been looking at. You play as Hue, a boy who is looking for his mother. She invented a ring that […]
