Review by Matt S. No More Heroes 1 & 2 was a surprise drop on the Nintendo Switch last week. It makes sense that they would make their way to the console, given that Goichi Suda is gearing up to the big release of No More Heroes 3 soon enough.…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. When I first heard that there was a turn-based Yakuza game on the way, I had no idea how it was going to work, but I was certainly intrigued by the potential of a Yakuza X Persona cross-over. Yakuza titles are always known for being a…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. Who wouldn’t want the opportunity to run a zoo full of dinosaurs? I mean, assuming that you could manage it in a way that doesn’t turn to hell (a la the Jurassic Park films). I remember being enamoured to a Game Boy Advance title, called Jurassic…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. Clea is the kind of game that you’ll want to champion, because it is clearly a labour of love deal. It’s the product of a largely one-man Aussie indie developer, and it comes with a strong vision, some lovely aesthetics, and all the right ideas. It’s…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. There’s no way I can write a review of Trails of Cold Steel IV that will allow me to talk about the game’s finest qualities. This is the fourth chapter of a series that you absolutely must play from the first chapter, else you’re going to…

The team makes slasher games: just like a slasher film, but with quick-time-events and moral choices which determine who lives and who dies. After the runaway success of Until Dawn, Supermassive set up…
Read MoreReview by Trent P. Watch Dogs: Legion is a continuation of the Watch Dogs series in every sense. It started with the personal vendetta of protagonist Aiden Pierce early in the generation in 2014. Then the sequel presented players with a larger DedSec crew, and now Watch Dogs: Legion again…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. Pikmin 3 Deluxe doesn’t do much over and above what it did on the Wii U, where it was initially released (and, indeed, was one of the early-era games by Nintendo on that console). To be entirely honest I’m actually going to plagiarise my own review…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. Transformers: Battlegrounds is one of the best things to happen to the property in years. That’s not entirely a glowing recommendation, since the Transformers property has been driven into the dirt thanks to those movies and games from publishers like Activision, so the bar has been…
Read MoreReview by Harvard L. LUNA The Shadow Dust bears more than a little similarity to one of my favourite games of all time, Gorogoa. The hand-drawn, colourful art styles and surreal, dreamlike narratives of both games are enchanting and memorable, which is why I thought I’d love LUNA just as…
