Review by Shaan J. In the grand scheme of things, I haven’t really been (seriously) playing video games for that long (I only started taking video games seriously around 10 years or so ago), and I’ve spent even less time writing about them. Still, I’ve always had this weird, hard…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. Life Is Strange makes me hate episodic games. When the opening chapter of a game is this utterly engrossing, to complete it after a solid five hours of continuous play, only to be told “well, you get to wait two months to see the story continue,”…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. Game like Ironclad Tactics are a dime a dozen on mobile platforms. Billing itself as a “strategy game,” Ironclad Tactics is really a casual semi-turn based experience that is briefly diverting, but it’s hardly the kind of thing that you’re going to sit down for and…

Read MoreReview by Andrew M. When Tennis in the Face first came across my desk, I thought this could be a bit of fun. The screenshots I’d seen looked great, it looked like it had a sense of humour about itself and appeared to be an enjoyable ride. While I got…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. It takes just three minutes to turn me from a perfectly competent and confident player of games, able to hold his own in the most competitive of gaming environments, and turn me into a quivering wreck. My palms sweaty, my thumbs slipping off the Dualshock 4’s…
Read MoreNews by Matt S. In all honesty I never thought I would ever type the following words: Hatoful Boyfriend, a dating game staring pigeons, is being released on consoles, in English. And I bet you never thought you’d read that. The game is really quite famous on account of being……
