Spitlings comes to us from Cologne-based dev Massive Miniteam via publisher HandyGames. Originally a timed exclusive on Stadia, it’s now out on PS4 and we get to enjoy it too. As the title might suggest, you control a Spitling. They have the ability to spit up and down. Spitting down […]

Spitlings – PS4 Review

Jisei the First Case HD is a visual novel focused entirely around a murder mystery. Centred around a killing at a diner, Sakevisual’s focused narrative provides some simple investigative thrills whilst lacking in some longevity and nuance. The story concerns a murder mystery held entirely within a diner’s premises. A […]

Jisei: The First Case HD – PS4 Review

Othercide crept up on me. The code came into the PlayStation Country inbox and I took a quick look at some info and it seemed the perfect fit. I’ve come around to the rogue-like/lite style of progression, it’s a tactical game which I often adore and the graphical style was […]

Othercide – PS4 Review

Lost Wing is a… well, what actually is it?  It looks like a shoot ’em up of sorts and you do fire bullets but this is more of an avoid ’em up in the style of games like Race The Sun, Infinity Runner and Air Race Speed and it comes from Manchester-based coders Boxfrog […]

Lost Wing – PS4 Review

First, that’s not a spelling mistake. It’s Superliminal rather than Superluminal. Right, that’s out of the way. From Seattle based developer and publisher Pillow Castle comes this great 3D puzzle game. Superliminal is a first-person affair across nine distinct levels, and to paraphrase Total Recall, it’s the best mindfuck yet. […]

Superliminal – PS4 Review

For a PlayStation site, I will freely admit that we don’t talk about the PS2 nearly as much as we should. The console was practically brimming with excellent titles and plenty more potential where that came from. I think just about everyone could easily pick a list of top ten […]

Sony are ending the generation with a flourish. Whatever you think of their style, the major first party games released by Sony this generation have all been of a high quality. Now they’ve seen fit to release two games this summer, mere months before the start of the next generation. […]

Ghost of Tsushima – PS4 Review

Tower Defence is not my thing but Ace Team’s Rock of Ages series does carry a daft Monty Python-esque sense of humour. Couple that with a level editor and you have me intrigued. For the third iteration, Rock of Ages 3: Make & Break, they’ve combined a lengthy campaign with […]

Rock of Ages 3: Make & Break – PS4 Review

Neversong first came to our attention by way of a Playstation blog article the day before it was released, so apologies if we appear a little tardy. Regardless, what we have here is a game with feelings. To paraphrase the disclaimer at the beginning, Neversong is a moving story of […]

Neversong – PS4 Review

PSN has been host to a few 2D airplane shoot ’em ups, most notably Luftrausers which was a good retro-flavoured affair and the brilliant Rogue Aces, which we still rate as one of the most exciting shoot ’em ups on the system.  Aircraft Evolution, from Satur Games and ported by Russian coding crew Sometimes […]

Aircraft Evolution – PS4 Review

While there are a lot of games that use twin-stick shooting mechanics on PSN, there aren’t that many pure shoot ’em ups in this sub-genre.  By that I mean ones that don’t have rogue-lite/like mechanics attached or are sprawling dungeon crawlers.  The best two so far have been Geometry Wars 3, which […]

  UPDATE:  Check the bottom of the review for a change from the original 7 out of 10 score. If you’ve ever played Crimsonland from 10ton Games, #killallzombies by Beatshapers is basically that to the point where we assumed it was a sequel. That means this game sees you running around a large-ish arena, fending off […]
