Dungeon Souls is an RPG for those who think the genre has become too bloated and complex over time. Taking inspirations from games such as Gauntlet and Risk of Rain, Dungeon Souls is part dungeon crawler and part top-down shooter as players guide their pixelated avatars through neon hallways fighting…

I’ve raved a lot about my love for Warhammer: Shadow of the Horned Rat already. I have listed it as one of my favourite games of all time, and I spent many, many, many hours as a kid playing it over and over again. But all of that love I…

I love board games, from classics such as Monopoly and Risk to newer ones that release each and every year. Of the older games out there, Scrabble ranks among one of my favourites. It probably comes as no surprise that I enjoy writing and I like to think that my…

The game so nice, we reviewed it twice! We loved Project CARS on the PlayStation 4 and the PC, but apparently Project CARS is not so fond of the Wii U. Slightly Mad Studios has confirmed that it has stopped development for the game on Nintendo’s Wii U due to it being…

Legions of Steel/PC/PC Review/Reviews/Slitherine/Strategy/tactics game

Legions of Steel is honestly not some light and fluffy game in which unicorns shooting out rainbows of flowers and candy. What it is is a game about a race of machines that have been slowing combing over the galaxy and annihilating anything in their way as they strip everything…

It really does my heart glad when I see game developers take a more mature look at the impact that war has on people. I enjoy the odd shooter and I love strategy games, but, of course, real war isn’t heroic, and even when it’s righteous and soldiers are fighting…

I’ve done a lot of thinking about Deception IV. Having first played it a year or so ago on the PlayStation Vita, I have always had this lingering notion that as much as I enjoy it (and I really, really enjoy it), it’s never quite been the game I want…

Godzilla. One word. One name. It carries with it instant familiarity. The recent movie went with the simple naming convention and it just worked. It was not the greatest movie ever, but I enjoyed it. It was fun, it took me back to being a kid who grew up on…
