Trigon Space Story Tips

Tried this game because it looked interesting but almost gave up when I kept losing on the very first campaign even on easy. Reviews compare it to a dumbed down but better looking version of FTL: Faster Than Light but I've never played that to confirm. It's roguelike so you can't save whenever and end up restarting a campaign from...


Transport Fever 2 Review

Having finished Two Point Hospital and its DLCs while the JRPG scene's been quiet, I was on the lookout for a sim game to play on the PC again. This game looked good and some reviews on Steam mentioned it was similar to Cities: Skylines, another sim game I enjoyed playing which could be considered a successor to the classic Sim City. Broken...


The Outer Worlds Review

You're one of the top minds aboard the colonist ship "Hope" that had been frozen in cryo stasis. After an accident and left to drift in the Halycon System a rogue scientist Dr. Phineas Welles arrives to the rescue. With only enough resources to revive one person you are sent out aboard the transport ship "Unreliable". Now you must set...


Jurassic World Evolution Review

I saw screenshots of this game and it looked good so I thought it might be an interesting management sim. I watched the first Jurassic World movie and thought it was OK although the CGI was well done. Those safari globes "Gyrospheres" visitors toured in looked really fun! So you're in charge of developing the Jurassic World on various...


Phantom Doctrine Review

It's been a while since I finished the turn based Xcom 2 so it was interesting to find a game that looked like it had similar gameplay. Phantom Doctrine allows you to play as the CIA or KGB so instead of fighting aliens you're up against humans. As I mentioned, if you've played Xcom 2 then you'll have less of a learning curve where each...


Northgard Review

It's been a while since I played a good RTS on the PC. Seems no one wants to make them like Command & Conquer or Starcraft any more. So it was a pleasant surprise when I came across indies title Northgard on Steam. It's not quite in the same style but there's enough resource management and unit control to make it fun to play. Story? Well...


Surviving Mars Review

I was interested in this sim when I heard Paradox Interactive was going to be publishing it. The modern day version of Sim City, "Cities Skylines" they published was quite good to play so this new premise of colonising Mars sounded like it'd be even more fun, despite being a different developer making it. The premise isn't really...


Tower of Time Review

It's been a while since I played a good RPG or in this case, Tower of Time is a "CRPG" which basically mimics the old number games of dice based Dungeon and Dragon games. Dark times rule the land of Atara after a catastrophe took place. A nameless young boy discovers a tower one day while out hunting and curiosity gets the better of him as...


Railway Empire Review

It's been a while since I played a PC game since getting consoles. The PC gaming landscape has changed from when JRPGs used to be almost non-existent to the point where you can find a whole range of them on Steam now. That said, it still can't beat consoles in terms of choice if you're into Japanese games. One area PCs still excel in are...
