Review by Matt S. I started playing Desperados III without having done too much research ahead of time. I know about the series itself, of course, but the last one of those was back in 2007, and it was produced by the now-defunct Spellbound Entertainment. That’s a long time ago…
Read MoreReview by Pierre-Yves L. Having originally released in early 2016, XCOM 2 has seen several ports and additions over the years. Compiling all of that into one neat package, fans can now take it with them whenever they go on the Nintendo Switch. This includes XCOM 2: War of the…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. It amazes me more than a little that Nintendo has allowed Advance Wars to sit on ice for so long. Yes, of course, Intelligent Systems is working on Fire Emblem instead, and that series is doing so well for it, but you look at the number…

Read MoreReview by Matt S. I have been looking forward to John Wick Hex for quite some time now, after it first launched on PC last year. With Mike Bithell (of Thomas Was Alone fame) behind it I had faith that it would be good, but despite my enthusiasm I still…
Read MoreNews by Matt S. If you’ve been watching our streams than you’d know that I’m currently playing through a Civilization VI campaign. It’s an all-time favourite game of mine, and effectively endless, what with all the civilisations available and different ways to play. Related reading: Our review of Civilization VI…
Read MoreVideo by Matt S. John Wick Hex has finally released on the PlayStation 4, and it is so, so good. Slick, fast-paced, raw tactics action, and the perfect adaptation of the tone, aesthetics and style of the film trilogy. It surprised me. It really did. I thought the movies were…
