If you haven’t played The Talos Principle, I’d recommend it. Nick gave it a 4.5-star review, writing, “Few games have everything working in such synchronised harmony as The Talos Principle. The world, puzzles, narrative and music are all served to the player in small helpings, never overwhelming and allowing you…
Read MoreDevolver Digital is known for its subversive takes on game showcases, and today’s 3-minute Devolver Delayed is no different. This time, it takes aim at Nintendo Directs, borrowing from its visual/audio formats. Devolver Delayed announces several game delays; these games were supposed to launch this year, but will now launch…
Read MoreI’ve been hyped for The Cosmic Wheel Sisterhood since it was announced. Matt’s preview of the game definitely fuelled that, but it also helps that it’s from the developer behind The Red Strings Club. There’s also a supernatural/occult/witchy element to it, which immediately draws me into just about anything. I’ve…
Read MoreI’ll always have a soft spot for mobile games; whether it is a mobile-exclusive or a port, I always appreciate having my games available through something that is always on my person.

Read MoreReligion is one of those topics you’re never meant to discuss in polite society. When it comes to video games, it’s one that’s historically either been airbrushed out of games to avoid offence, or dealt with in very broad brush strokes to define it away from existing real-world religious groups.…
Read MoreIt’s time for our last recap of the day, Devolver Digital. I honestly have no idea what to expect with this one, as Devolver has had some whacky, subversive showcases in the past. Limited Run Games tried and failed to have a narrative this year, so we’ll see if Devolver…
