Review by Nick H. A lot of licensed games feel diluted, like the qualities that made them an interesting property in the first place get lost in the transition from television or book to the gaming console. Maybe it is the idea of trying to add objectives, or coming up…
Read MoreReview by Pierre-Yves L. The Mighty Quest for Epic Loot is a free-to-play Dungeon Crawling and Simulation Action RPG where you get to raid other people’s castles for experience, treasure and glory. The characters are funky and have funny personalities, the customisable environments range from beautiful to comically horrifying, the…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. I was, of course, a big fan of Avadon 2 when it was released on PC a few months ago. I’m a big fan of all of Spiderweb Software games. These are classic RPGs in every sense of the word. They look a couple of decades…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. Why can’t more shooters be like this? Plants Vs. Zombies Garden Warfare is a joy to play. It’s technically competent and well balanced, uses the excellent Frostbite 3 engine, has plenty of depth, and unlike almost every other shooter out there it doesn’t rely on gore…

With that said being a retro run n’ gun shooter, Wolf Fang does a bang-up job of being fully playable. Unfortunately, the problem lies more in the game itself than the language barrier.…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. Magus is a truly weird game that is unlike anything I’ve played this generation. It combines the aesthetics of a B-grade fantasy RPG with shooter mechanics that feel like they’re taken directly out of one of those old school fantasy FPSers like Heretic and Hexen. It…
Read MoreReview by Harvard L. Lately the line between what is and isn’t a game has been a hot debate here at DDNet. As all the discussion has proven, the line isn’t clear and Nyamyam’s new title, Tengami, isn’t going to make it any clearer. Tengami is in part an adventure…
Read MoreReview by Shaan J. There’s a lot to love about the original Chip’s Challenge, even after all these years. It’s a very simple game, maybe even to a fault, but along with its simplicity came a sense of charm and purity. Developer Chuck Sommerville wasn’t concerned about a story, or…
