Grew up playing the Nintendo 64 where I fell in love with the Legend of Zelda series. As I got older though my console of choice changed, first to PS2, and then finally to the Xbox 360, which I've been playing on for over a decade now. And since my first day booting up my Xbox, I've upgraded consoles and even built a gaming PC. Because at the end of the day I just love gaming.

Kotenok is a basic platformer game that can be beaten in under an hour, rarely trying to be anything special.

Rue Valley Review

It feels like there is so much more potential that Rue Valley never capitalises on. The world is a good size and the characters are interesting, but the game gets tunnel vision on specific plot points and they resolve too quickly to tie-in to the conclusion

Morsels Review

Morsels is a fun game with a unique atmosphere and a lot of heart; more than other games in the genre.

DAVE THE DIVER Review

The beautiful graphics, chill soundtrack, and enjoyable gameplay loop more than make up for any criticisms I could throw at DAVE THE DIVER.

Turnip Boy Robs a Bank Review

You'll enjoy your time with Turnip Boy a lot more on the second go around in Turnip Boy Robs a Bank.

Have a Nice Death Review

There is a lot of personality in Have a Nice Death. The animation is fluid and the character and sound design are phenomenal. It is a challenging game that doesn’t forgive mistakes, so it won’t be fun for those looking for a casual game. But if you like a roguelike that will push you to the edge, Have a Nice Death is a welcome addition to your game library.

Avatar: The Last Airbender - Quest for Balance tries to do way too much.

Rayland 2 Review

It’s hard to make a case for Rayland 2 being your first choice when it comes to buying a new puzzle game. However, if you want to kill an hour or two, and you need an extra 2000 Gamerscore in the bank, then it’s certainly an option.

Blasphemous 2 Review

If you enjoyed the first Blasphemous, then getting hold of Blasphemous 2 is a given. Everything that was great about the first game has been built on in the second, with nearly all issues addressed.

If you are a fan of roguelites then don't rule out Rogue Spirit. It’s not a game for genre newbies, but if you need something different, Rogue Spirit may be for you.

CONVERGENCE: A League of Legends Story Review

CONVERGENCE: A League of Legends Story is definitely geared towards more casual platformer gamers and as far as metroidvanias go, there are better ones out there.

S.P.E.A.R. Review

When S.P.E.A.R. gets even remotely difficult, it can feel like you’re not just fighting giant, flying eye bosses: you’re fighting the engine, too.

SOPA – Tale of the Stolen Potato Review

If you’re in the market for a Telltale-like episode of narrative goodness, then take a bow, SOPA - Tale of the Stolen Potato. This is not long, difficult or ambitious, but it never fails to be charming.
