Heavy Duty Challenge Review

Paul Renshaw -
Heavy Duty challenge is an odd duck. It looks rough but the actual driving experience is engrossing, even if it is not exactly a laugh a minute.

Sympathy for the Devil – Film Review

Dave Ozzy -
Sympathy for the Devil is a compact thriller that makes best use of the few locations and actors that it’s got. It also makes the incredibly wise choice of hiring Nicolas Cage, dialling him up to 8 on the Cage-o-meter, and just letting him go for 90 minutes.

Chicory: A Colorful Tale Review

Dave Ozzy -
Through all the live services and toxic multiplayer experiences, we can lose sight of some simple joys of gaming. It can be an escape, and a means of expression. It can be a comfort and a feeling of progression. Chicory: A Colorful Tale reminds us that games can do them all with one flourish of its paintbrush.

Layers of Fear (2023) Review

Gareth Brierley -
If you are still to play Layers of Fear then you are in for a treat with Layers of Fear (2023). And even if you have played it before, you should head back in and be terrified once more.

Party Animals Review

Fin -
Party Animals is, in a word, promising. Whilst the launch version of this incredibly cute and colourful physics-based brawler is missing some key features that will boost replayability, the foundations are there for an excellent foray into the genre.

The Expanse: A Telltale Series – Episode 4 Review

James Birks -
The final stages of The Expanse: A Telltale Series episode four create a real buzz for the finale, but the rest of it kills all enthusiasm.

Word Web by POWGI Review

Richard Dobson -
What starts off as a seemingly impossible challenge quickly becomes one of the best POWGI games for logical thinking. Word Web by POWGI not only ramps the difficulty up, but also the satisfaction of completing a puzzle.

Ad Infinitum Review

Gareth Brierley -
Ad Infinitum is disturbing, confusing and horrific, much like the WWI setting. It tackles some interesting themes and tells a story that is hard to get a handle on. But the gameplay is solid, as are the visuals and brilliant soundtrack. 

HUMANKIND Review

Maximus Boethius -
Overall I enjoyed my time playing HUMANKIND and would recommend it to both strategy game veterans and beginners. It can be extremely enjoyable however it is held back by some bugs and half-baked gameplay mechanics.

Escape From Terror City Review

Paul Renshaw -
Escape From Terror City looks bad, plays very poorly, and is about as much fun as trapping your fingers in a door.

Cyberpunk 2077: Phantom Liberty Review

Richard Dobson -
Cyberpunk 2077: Phantom Liberty grabs your attention instantly, and refuses to let go until the conclusion.

eFootball 2024 Review

James Birks -
There’s no doubt eFootball 2024 is a flawed game and, if a measly update is all that’s coming each year, it’s hard to see it ever being worthy of your time.

Barbie – Film Review

Dave Ozzy -
Don’t make the mistake of expecting a family movie or an easy watch: Barbie is far more weighty and satisfying than the lightweight plastic might imply. Now we wait for more films based on toys, completely misunderstanding why this one was so great.

The Crew Motorfest Review

Neil Watton -
After years of having the open world racing scene dominated by Forza Horizon, Ubisoft have certainly found the right gear with The Crew Motorfest. If you're an adrenaline junkie, this is one not to miss.
