Review by Harvard L. From what I’ve heard of Stoic’s The Banner Saga, I had been expecting a deep turn based strategy focused on heroism and triumphant battles. Never have I been more wrong. The Nordic-themed fantasy world of The Banner Saga is a bitter one wracked by both political…
Read MoreReview by Rob P. Battle Academy 2 is fantastic. That’s no surprise; the first Battle Academy was fantastic, and the sequel is more of the same. The latest title in the series comes with a fresh paint job, better tactical options and a brilliant skirmish mode but, not-so-deep-down, it’s still…
Read MoreReview by Pierre-Yves L. Anomaly 2 is the third tower offence game from 11 bit studios, and it puts players to the test by providing them with very limited resources and requires lots of forward thinking if they are to drive back the aliens that have invaded and already decimated…

Become acquainted with the AI lord who would see you defeated: the scowling, aggressive, unpredictable antagonist of the Stronghold series, The Wolf, returns to taunt you over the insecurities of your action plan or flat out mock you with witty hyperbole when you request his support…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. Cubemen 2 is one of the finest examples of the tower defence genre. Previously released on iOS and PC, it’s developed into something massive over the months and years courtesy of community-created levels, and now on the Wii U players access all that content in the…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. It was 100 years ago now when the first of two global conflicts would erupt and fundamentally change the future of humanity. A war that was directly responsible for its even more tragic successor, and a war that in many ways we’re still paying for today.…
