Review by Nick H. Puzzle games are common on handheld devices like the Vita or DS, and that makes perfect sense because they usually can be played in small sessions, make easy use of touch interfaces as a control option and are much less demanding on the typically small teams…
Read MoreReview by Nick H. (Please note that this is the same game as Chevrolet Camaro: Wild Ride, renamed for the US market. You can read our original review here.) Racing games can be a tricky affair, especially on the small screen of a portable device. I have found very few…
Read MoreReview by Nick H. I really wanted to like this game more, as Heathcliff was a favourite cartoon character of mine as a kid. He was up there with Marmaduke, Garfield and more when I read the Sunday comics my dad gave me every weekend. Spot On runs with the…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. NES Remix is a quirky little game, and a clever way for Nintendo to exploit games that are as much as 30 years old just that little bit more, but ultimately this is the kind of game that people will point to as proof that for…

Read MoreAs everyone who knows me knows I have a slight obsession with Tecmo Koei’s Warriors franchise, and I love how the developers over there keep turning the formula to a range of different Anime/ Manga and JRPG franchises. A Zelda Warriors (tentatively titled “Hyrule Warriors”) game on the Wii U…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. Wayforward is usually reliable. Even when it’s building licensed titles it’s usually reliable (Thor on the DS is a truly great brawler). And while Wayforward is well known for its platformers, it has proven that it does understand dungeon crawlers with the excellent Silent Hill: Book of…
Read MoreReview by Clark A.Mega Man’s first outing is surprisingly overlooked for a mascot-spawning title.
