Aussie readers of DDNet, have we got a treat for you! (Note: this competition is only open to Australian residents. Apologies, overseas friends, but I’m sure we’ll have another contest for you soon) Stranger Of Paradise is one of the finest, and smartest, games in Square Enix’s storied series. As we wrote in our 4.5/5 review: Do you know that…
Review by Trent P. The line “What could possibly go wrong?” is arguably more famous than the Bubsy series itself. While the original Bubsy, Claws Encounters of the Furred Kind, gained a cult following, the later entries were rushed to market and greatly lacked in quality. This all cumulated in…

Emerson, Muir, Thoreau; these are the three people that Far From Noise’s creator, George Batchelor, explicitly credits with inspiring his philosophical treatise in interactive form.

Read MoreReview by Ginny W. Someone described Lost Dimension to me as a mix between Danganronpa, Fire Emblem, and anime. For better or for worse, that description is incredibly spot on. It mixes a bunch of well-known concepts and mechanics and produces a polished result that looks all set to succeed…
Read MoreInterview by Ginny W There’s been a lot of buzz about Paperbark ever since it was first unveiled in 2015 by Paper House. It’s easy to understand where the hype comes from – it’s a beautiful watercolour tribute to Australian wildlife where you play as a curious wombat, and it’s…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. Back when I was at university I tended to keep funny hours and do most of my work very late at night. I found myself more productive at that time. Being a film student, I’d also often have the TV on in the background with whatever…
