  • Life is Strange: Before the Storm is a Cruel Joke

    Time travel and replaying events was such a key part of Life is Strange that how could a prequel possibly work without those elements and game mechanics? I remember thinking this back when Life is Strange: Before the Storm was released, and now, playing the remastered versions of the...
  • Playing Life is Strange Like I’m The Storyteller Rather Than The Player

    I saved Alyssa from being hit by the football. I saved Alyssa from being hit by the roll of toilet paper. I saved Alyssa from being splashed by the car. I saved Alyssa from being pushed into the pool. And then, when it really mattered, did I save Alyssa...
  • The Best Level in LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga is…

    Wholly unexpected. That’s the answer to what is the best level in LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga. A complete surprise. It’s not an epic lightsaber duel or a huge battle. In general, the levels in the game are a bit of a disappointment. They’re fun but, because of...

  • Tanked Up 315 – Donglin’ about in our Tunic and Ring

    Ben and Lucy talk at length about the end-game of Tunic, spoiler-free. Aadil tries to just mention what it reminds him of trying a new character in Elden Ring, and the stark differences in experience the two seem to have.     Lucy has the promised A Saison Apparent...
  • Dynasty Warriors 9 Empires Review

    One of my main worries when picking up this game for review was how I would react to its graphics. I bounced off Dynasty Warriors 9 when it released a few years ago because it literally gave me a headache  looking at it. I had a few attempts but...
  • 6Souls 1280x720

    6Souls Review (Xbox Series S)

    6SOULS REVIEW (XBOX SERIES S)   In this beautifully pixelated hardcore platformer, adventurer Jack and his talking canine companion Butch journey to an abandoned castle to presumably find treasure but end up stumbling into the evil plan of a warlock who has trapped the Clifford family into Soul Crystals....
  • Levels I Can’t Wait to Play in Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga

    I owe a considerable part of my Star Wars obsession to Lego games. Playing the original two Lego Star Wars titles, adapting the prequel and original trilogies respectively, not only offered a fun experience but also acted as a gateway drug to the wider canon. Suddenly all these characters...
  • The Gunk review

    There’s a poignant message within The Gunk. But much like the planet you spend 4-5 hours exploring as Rani, it becomes lost along the way. Having landed on a planet ravaged by pollution and a race on the brink of extinction, a powerful message on climate change could pack...
