1 Catline Review

Top Rated Games

Resident Evil Requiem Review

Resident Evil Requiem is a pitch perfect love letter to fans of the series.

REANIMAL Review

REANIMAL is a big step up from the Little Nightmares games in terms of story and world-building. This feels more mature, more epic, and, at times, much more terrifying.

Satisfactory Review

Satisfactory knows what it wants to be and it executes that near flawlessly.

Goodnight Universe Review

The story of Goodnight Universe is so good and the gameplay is so much fun, that it supersedes the need for any fancy tech. 

Platypus Reclayed Review

Platypus Reclayed really is impressive on every front. Far from being style over substance, it’s an immensely satisfying, yet challenging, shoot 'em up experience.

Accessory Reviews

Reviews

1 Catline Review

1 Catline is a fun idea that seems reluctant to embrace that fun.

Crabwave Review

We’re far from crabby having played Crabwave.

Sleeping Beauty: Hidden Object Game Review

If you just want to find needles in haystacks, then Sleeping Beauty: Hidden Object Game smiles winsomely and lets you do exactly that.

New Yankee: Through the History Mirror Collector’s Edition Review

I’d love to say that New Yankee: Through the History Mirror is best-in-class for the resource-management genre, but the bugs say no. Its mirror is cracked. 

Alex the Rabbit Review

Alex the Rabbit wasn’t a big hit in our house. While we appreciated the Mario-like presentation, it was sorely lacking some important elements.

Chronicles of Albian 3: The Vanishing Village Collector’s Edition Review

As a four or five hour game, Chronicles of Albian 3 would have been sensational - a kick up the butt for other hidden object makers.

Zoo Clues Review

There are plenty of spot-the-difference games out there, and most of them work. Zoo Clues, arguably, doesn’t. It might seem flippant, but buying an actual spot-the-difference book would be a better option than investing in Zoo Clues. 

Slide Viking: Treasure’s Path Review

Slide Viking: Treasure’s Path abides by the same template as dozens of other games.

Meowgic Mix Review

Meowgic Mix is a solid, well-made sokoban that excels most in its puzzle design.

Lantern Push Review

Lantern Push is a fine - if surprisingly difficult - entry into the Afil Games sokobaniverse.

Fox Legend Review

I found Fox Legend to be fun in a platforming-warm-up kind of way.

Sokobear Cave Review

Gloominess aside, Sokobear Cave is a very competent puzzler.

GreedFall: The Dying World Review

There are certainly things to love about GreedFall: The Dying World, but after many hours in its world, I left feeling a little deflated.

Sovereign Syndicate Review

If you are a fan of RPGs that build fascinating new worlds with interesting characters, then Sovereign Syndicate is the right choice for you.

The Stairwell Review

The Stairwell is one of my favourite games in the looping genre. There is something about the vertical, Escher-esque design that really got its hooks into me.

Mirage 7 Review

We saw lots of games like Mirage 7 back in the ‘00s, in the B-List golden age, but nowadays they are virtually extinct.

Mole Cart Mining Review

Mole Cart Mining is a solid puzzle game that is near-identical to previous games by the publisher.
