Destiny 2: Shadowkeep Review
Destiny’s annual yearly update is upon us, and this year we’re going back to somewhere we haven’t been since the end of original Destiny. Destiny 2: Shadowkeep isn’t as big as last year’s Forsaken expansion, however, Bungie are leaning more into the MMO features of Destiny and even though the expansion isn’t big – it…

80 Days Review
We’ve probably all heard of the classic Jules Verne work of Around the World in 80 Days, however, I’m willing to bet that you’ve not experienced it like this. 80 days is a wonderful ‘choose your own adventure style game’ that uses Verne’s text as a basis, but takes you on adventures all around the…

Geese can be obnoxious creatures. Sure, when you’re a kid you likely went to a petting zoo and saw some geese and thought they were cute. Perhaps you had a pond in your hometown and saw them floating around all day, chilling. But the humble Goose can be a menace to society and that fact…

Borderlands 3 is finally here and the Vault Hunters are back looting & shooting their way through enemies, guns and fun bosses in this continuation of the Borderlands franchise out now for PC, PS4 and Xbox One.

Remnant: From the Ashes Review
We live in an age where games have long marketing cycles, so you’ll know every detail of the characters, every weapon, maybe even play a beta where you’ll comb every inch of the map. However, sometimes games come out of nowhere to surprise us… Remnant: From the Ashes is a great example of this. Remnant…

Ori and the Blind Forest Review
Looks can be deceiving. From the first glimpse of Ori and the Blind Forest you may think this is a cute platformer, but hiding underneath the beautiful surface is a challenging Metroidvania that will test the most skilled out there. Ori and the Blind Forest is stunning. The gorgeous artwork and the wonderful music will…

Axiom Verge Review
Axiom Verge is a fantastic Metroidvania that can stand tall amongst the competition in the genre (and there’s plenty). Over the last few years, many stand out game of the year contenders have been Metroidvania titles, and Axiom Verge is among the best. We start the game with our hero, Trace, who’s experimenting in his…

Unavowed Review
How did it come to this? Standing out in the rain, being exorcised by two strangers – a strange woman holding a sword and a man with fire coming out of his fingertips. Unavowed has an attention-grabbing start to a wonderful adventure game. Unavowed starts with you on the roof, the rain pounding down as…
