Review by Sam M. XCOM 2 takes place 20 years after the events of Enemy Unknown. Earth is under control of the ADVENT agency, run by the aliens that invaded Earth in the previous game. After rescuing the commander, i.e. the player, it’s then up to the XCOM organisation to…
Read MoreI really have no words with which to describe Hieroglyphika. That’s the joke, since aside from the title you won’t be finding a single written word in this game. Everything is represented using pictographs, which makes localisation a cinch for Chinese one-man developer M. Hanka. Hieroglyphika is a roguelike in…
Read MoreThe Coma acts as a cautionary tale, albeit that of a farfetched one. Overworking school students will lead to a nightmarish hellscape where teachers attack students who fall behind.

Read MoreAgatha Christie is one of the most successful novelists of all time. Her works, which include 66 novels and 154 short stories, specialise in thrilling whodunit mysteries, and indeed, aside from Arthur Conan Doyle, it’s difficult to think of a single person more influential over that paticular genre. Agatha Christies:…
Read MoreFor the first time (and long overdue in my humble opinion), non-Vita players will be able to get their hands on the game Matt gave “an emphatic five stars” in his review. That’s right folks, Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc is getting ready to hit Steam this February. Danganronpa: Trigger Happy…
Read MoreCorgi Warlock is not a concept that was doomed from the start. It has a wacky setup (appropriate for indie games like this), a talented individual behind the project, and a host of warrior animals. Unfortunately, it fails in the execution.
