Review by Matt S. There aren’t enough railway tycoon games out there. Or tycoon simulators in general. What was once a thriving sector of the industry has slowly whittled away, and while there are some impressive looking attempts on the horizon (SEGA’s take on a hospital manager looks especially impressive),…
Read MoreVideo by Matt S. Kalypso has just released Railway Empire, a new simulator that puts you in control of building up a rail network. And it’s so, so good. I’ve got a review for the game coming later today, but in the meantime I’ve put together a video looking at…
Read MoreNews by Matt S. I am so very conflicted right now. Atari has taken to crowdfunding (not Kickstarter, but StartEngine) to raise some money to put a RollerCoaster Tycoon game on Nintendo Switch. I don’t know about you but I can’t think of a console I’d want to play RollerCoaster…

Read MorePreview by Jim S. I love games like Rune Factory and Stardew Valley, and perhaps that’s why I am really enjoying My Time At Portia. Even at this early stage it has a similar sense of simple, bright, pleasant charm. After creating a character, you learn that you have inherited…
Read MoreReview by Lindsay M. The Queen is dead. These words may send shivers down the spines of the Queen’s constituents, but for me it’s a sign of rebirth. Mostly because, let’s be real, if the Queen is dead then I did a terrible job of making her choices for her.…
Read MoreReview by Matt C. One of the best things about the Nintendo, as a publisher, is the wide range of games they release. They cater to every taste, with everything from Zelda and Metroid to Brain Training and Muscle March, and rather than a way to make a quick buck,…
Read MoreVideo by Matt S. Just released on PlayStation 4, 911 Operator is a simple, light strategy/ simulation game with one really awesome feature in particular.
