Review: Fatal Frame II: Crimson Butterfly Remake (Nintendo Switch 2)

Before I fully launch into my review of Fatal Frame II: Crimson Butterfly Remake, a remake of my favourite horror game ever, bar none and by a considerable margin, I do have to register annoyance about something. Koei Tecmo: It’s only “Fatal Frame” in America, and that’s a far sillier name than its proper title, Project Zero. Related reading: A…

Review: Resident Evil Requiem (Sony PlayStation 5)

Resident Evil has always been a tale of placing corporate profit over human rights. From Resident Evil 1’s human experimentation, to Resident Evil 2’s company town, all the way to Resident Evil Village’s superpowered feudal lords, Resident Evil has always worn its ideology on its sleeve. Greedy, corrupt politicians wielding…

Review: Fobia – St. Dinfna Hotel (Sony PlayStation 5)

June 28, 2022

Horror/Indie/Reviews

The biggest problem with Fobia – St. Dinfna Hotel is that it lacks an identity of its own. The developers are clearly fans and students of the horror genre, stretching all the way back to Resident Evil, and have done a passable job of building a warm homage to it.…

Preview: Horror Tycoon (PC)

May 31, 2022

Indie/PC/Previews

Some people like to find ways to murder people in the Sims. I’m not saying I’m one of them (I’m far too impatient) but it’s not an uncommon occurrence. If you take that idea, and put it into a haunted house with a smidgen of plot and some tower defence…

NISA shares trailer for upcoming nightmare, Yomawari: Lost in the Dark

May 26, 2022

Horror/News/trailer

NISA is on to a good thing with the Yomawari series. These might look like humble little indie anime games, but they know how to throw an emotional and horrific gut punch and a half. The publisher has a third on the way later this year and has shared an…

Review: Vampire: The Masquerade Swansong (Sony PlayStation 5)

May 18, 2022

Reviews/Vampire the Masquerade

Big Bad Wolf, the developer behind 2018’s The Council, was the right developer to tackle Vampire: The Masquerade. The execution of Swansong isn’t perfect, but the effort to recreate the pen-and-paper experience is spot-on, and so, the team at Big Bad Wolf have achieved something that’s increasingly rare in video…

Review: Ravenous Devils (Nintendo Switch)

May 9, 2022

Nintendo Switch/Reviews/simulation

Before the film that Tim Burton and Johnny Depp had way too much fun with, and before even the Stephen Sondheim musical that more people should see a production of, Sweeny Todd was a Penny Dreadful. People don’t really know what these are anymore, but they were once wildly popular…

Review: The House of the Dead Remake (Nintendo Switch)

April 12, 2022

Nintendo Switch/Reviews

It’s a lightgun game where the lightgun aim doesn’t work properly. It’s an arcade game that offers no challenge no penalty for running out of lives. It’s a remake that has lost all the atmosphere and appeal of the base game. Congratulations, developer MegaPixel Studio, I genuinely have no idea…

Review: Ikai (Sony PlayStation 5)

April 4, 2022

Indie/PlayStation 5/Reviews

Ikai is so close to being something special. The premise of the game is strong, it has the occasional moment of inspired horror design, and you can tell that the developers entered into this with some genuine intent and vision. Unfortunately, at other times it comes across as amateur and…
