Review: The Fidelio Incident (PC)

Review by Lachlan W. To me, “walking simulator” will never be a derogatory term. For someone who values story over all else in games, I appreciate the narrative purity of walking simulators. The Fidelio Incident, by Act 3 Games, is the latest entry into the genre on PC. But does…

Review by Matt S. In the absence of Nintendo’s F-Zero series (c’mon Nintendo, surely you know how much people want that one), Sony’s had close to the monopoly on super high speed anti-gravity racing with WipeOut. Now, WipeOut Omega Collection might not be a new game, per se, but bringing…

Review by Harvard L. Rive is an excellent, if sorrowful, swansong for veteran Dutch developers Two Tribes. With an incredible backlog full of addictive titles such as Toki Tori, RUSH and EDGE, the studio developed a reputation for its minimalist games featuring exceptionally well designed mechanics. The reputation is upheld…

Review: Dark Rose Valkyrie (Sony PlayStation 4)

Compile Heart/Dark Rose Valkyrie/fan service/Idea Factory/Idea Factory International/JRPG/PlayStation 4/PS4 Review/Reviews

Review by Matt S. Dark Rose Valkyrie was meant to be a relatively serious take on Compile Heart’s usual modus operandi. The house that built Hyperdimension Neptunia, Omega Quintet and Fairy Fencer has always been polarising, and that’s for a simple reason; this studio loves showing off the panties of…

Article by Matt S. Here’s the thing about stepping into a game that has had a loyal fanbase and been expanded on and built out over a period of 11 years; it becomes very difficult for new players to get into it. Especially if the people behind the game don’t…

Review by Sam M. Bloons has been around for years, originally starting as a small Flash game which I remember fondly trying to sneakily play while I was meant to be doing work on the computer at school. Much like the countless of tower defence games well before it, and…
