From developer Wildboy Studios and publisher Untold Tales comes a comedy romp through the halls of the Norse gods. Rather unexpectedly, Atone: Heart of the Elder Tree is a point and click adventure with a script worthy of LucasArts at the height of their powers. Only kidding, it’s a generally […]

Atone: Heart of the Elder Tree – PS4 Review

Maybe it’s spending more time at home but I’ve found myself looking at smaller diversions to spend fifteen minutes here and there. Games come in all shapes and sizes but Mighty Math arrives from Greenfall Studios with a cheap price tag and a very simple premise. Having already landed on […]

Mighty Math – PS4 Review

Yuppie Psycho : Executive Edition to give its full title, chronicles the first working day of a guy called Brian Pasternak at a company called Sintracorp. Developed by Baroque Decay and published by Neon Doctrine, this is ostensibly a survival horror game, though it’s very dialogue and plot heavy. His […]

One of the good things about this job is the chance to refresh one’s memory. I recall being pretty sweet on Darkwood‘s original release from Acid Wizard. The atmospheric horror managed to deliver a lot with a grimy aesthetic and a survivalist approach. With the Playstation 5, very little has […]

Helvetii is a 2D flip-screen brawler/roguelike that comes to us from Swiss software specialists, Team KwaKwa.  It’s set in a world of Gallic Celtic Mythology and sees you controlling three playable characters who are trying to battle a mysterious evil that is causing the world to rot and physics to […]

I’m never really sure what to do with kids games. I can’t review them from a child’s perspective and it’s not like I can fetch some kids to play it for me. Even so, I wouldn’t trust a kid’s opinion on anything. Kids have no sense of taste, no sense […]

Raiden IV x Mikado Remix is a vertically-scrolling shoot-’em-up from famed Japanese arcade developer MOSS.  As with most series from Japan, there’s a degree of… non-linearity to their releases and that’s definitely the case here as Raiden V already exists (we reviewed it five years ago).  But a lot of people […]

Turnip Boy Commits Tax Evasion could well have been a Ratalaika effort for the almost generic title. Though we’re glad we didn’t dismiss it out of hand as it turned out to be a pleasant surprise. Coming from Massachusetts-based dev Snoozy Kazoo and publisher Graffiti Games, as increasingly seems to […]

The Legend of Tianding comes to us from Creative Games & Computer Graphics Corp in conjuction with Taiwan Tech (aka National Taiwan University of Science and Technology) and Taiwanese publisher Neon Doctrine. So far so Taiwanese! According to Wikipedia, this is a fleshed out version of a 2004 Flash game which […]

Despite getting three lots of DLC last year, the Far Cry 6 expansions keep coming with the latest, Lost Between Worlds, now available on PSN.  Unlike those previous DLCs though, this one gives the player back control of Dani Rojas, the protagonist from the main game. A short, slightly glitchy cutscene sets […]

Breakers Collection is a compilation of two Neo Geo fighting games, namely Breakers from 1996 and its follow-up Breakers Revenge in 1998.  Excitingly, these games were never released outside of Japan so this is probably your first chance to get a hold of them (well, assuming you’ve not been dabbling with emulation for the last […]

Wings of Bluestar is a horizontally-scrolling shoot ’em up from prolific publishers EastAsiaSoft who’ve put together quite the stable of games from this genre.  Now, most of these have been quite unusual with games like Red Death and Project Starship but, on the face of it at least, Wings of Bluestar is a bit more traditional.
