Astral Chain Review

Astral Chain looked good and the Switch has been short on new original JRPGs instead of just ports so I thought I'd give it try. Not to mention it's made by the same developers as Persona 5 although other people might have wanted it because it's supposed ot be closer to Nier;Automata. I wasn't quite sure what I was in for because I didnt...


MarZ: Tactical Base Defense Review

I didn't have much looking for a new RTS game but while I was browsing Steam for one I came across an indie game named "MarZ: Tactical Base Defence". Both the screenshots and the name just shouted another tower defence game. I pretty much consider tower defence games to be a casual game you'd just play on a mobile - quick short sessions...

Detroit: Become Human Review

Robot technology has reached the stage where they're capable of virtually performing any task that a human can do and are now used to serve or work in various parts of the industry. However, recently there have been reports where such androids have turned into a "deviant", running away from their master or worse - killing them. Now...

Not long later, she...


No Man's Sky Review

The highly hyped open world game, "No Man's Sky" where alien worlds are randomly generated by an algorithm so that every planet players visit will look different. There was even one research organisation that accused the developers of stealing their formula for doing this and the media giant Sky even tried to get rid of their name. So...


Everyone's Gone to the Rapture

I wanted to try Everyone's Gone to the Rapture when I saw it as a PS4 exclusive a year ago because the visuals looked really good and resembled an adventure game. Not sure what to expect I jumped in with the PC version released a few months ago. So something's gone wrong and everyone's disappeared. All that remains are wisps of...
