Review by Matt S. I would never have thought that the developers and publishers of this game would have thought to release it on a platform with virtual controls. As a remake of a early-era game, Castle of Illusion Starring Mickey Mouse HD is the kind of platformer that requires…
Read MoreReview by Nick H. Knack was one of the two retail Sony exclusive titles that were carrying the PlayStation 4’s launch hopes. The problem is instead of ushering in the next generation of gaming, Knack feels decidedly last generation. It brings very little new to the table while feeling overly…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. Until I played Contrast I wasn’t interested in it. That changed about three minutes after I started playing. This is a deeply intelligent game, and yet another example of a wonderfully emerging class of games that maintain artistic credibility while also offering genuine production values. Rain,…
Read MoreReview by Nick H. I was pleasantly surprised at how much I enjoyed the recently released Pac-Man and the Ghostly Adventures on the PlayStation 3. It offered some neat throwbacks to Sonic or Mario in there with its 3D platforming and power-ups. Namco Bandai made a game with the same name…
Read MoreReview by Michael B. Before I go onto the review proper, I want to point out two things. Firstly, I was never able to get Gravi to run in Steam’s Offline Mode. This was tested on both a laptop and a dedicated gaming desktop. I have contacted the developer Hashbang…

Read MoreReview by Matt S. As much as the traditionalists would hate me for saying this, there are times where I would prefer to play a game using a nice, big touch screen. There are certain times where a human’s ability to directly interact with an object will provide superior precision…
Read MoreThe entire Sonic series has always been a bit beyond me. It’s not that I have a problem with the idea of a super-speedy platformer, but something about Sonic has always left me cold. Perhaps it’s just that I prefer to explore a game’s environment, and Sonic by nature excludes…
Read MoreReview by Chris I. When you jump into one of Game Atelier’s games, you rest assured that you’ll find a gaming experience that’s delightful to the senses, with signature colourful visuals and upbeat tunes. In its latest release, Tiny Death, the team have created an awesome leading character; a squashed…
