Review by Matt C. I wonder how long it will be before “tycoon games” start to instead be known as “planet games”. That certainly seems to be the goal of Frontier Developments — after a very successful spiritual successor to RollerCoaster Tycoon in 2016’s Planet Coaster, the studio has now…

Review by Matt S. Finally. FINALLY. It only took three years, but 2K Games has finally released Civilization VI onto a console that we all knew was perfectly capable of playing Civilization VI from day one. When the PC version landed back in 2016, 2K sidestepped the question of a…

Review by Matt S. Deemo is one of my favourite rhythm games. Originally a mobile title, the Nintendo Switch port is characterised by offering a true wealth of tight, engaging music to play. Hundreds and hundreds of gorgeous pieces of music, all based on the use of a humble piano…
