Gareth Brierley

I am an actor and a writer. I act quite a bit on stage, a little bit on tv and never on tuesdays. I have had some of my writing published and have written for TV and stage. I have been playing games since they begun and don't seem to be getting any better.

The World After Review

Whilst the transition across languages hasn't helped the writing in places, you should enjoy your time with The World After.

Bulwark: Falconeer Chronicles Review

Bulwark: Falconeer Chronicles is a good second entry into The Falconeer universe, offering up something different.

PERISH Review

You’ll find the most fun of PERISH in co-op, having a blast with a few friends.

SteamWorld Build Review

Perhaps you shouldn’t come to SteamWorld Build looking to pile in hundreds of hours, but this is an extremely likeable, bite-sized city creating adventure.

Beholder 3 Review

Even though you’ll have a good time with Beholder 3, you may well find that it becomes a little bit too samey after a while.

Rooten Review

Perfectly priced, Rooten may well entice those looking for an atmospheric narrative, enjoying the interesting, dark story that then plays out.  

Blacktail Review

Blacktail is not an easy game, with some tricky combat situations and big boss battles, but it’s a game that allows Focus Entertainment to end their great year on a high.

Afterglitch Review

Afterglitch is an experimental piece of gaming with strange mechanics, an obscure narrative, and trippy visual design.

Wavetale Review

Wavetale won't be everyone's cup of tea and some might find the tone too whimsical or childlike, but for others it’ll feel original, entertaining, and absorbing. That's what every game should aim for.

Hindsight Review

Hindsight is a brilliant examination of grief, and the moving on in life thereafter.

Saint Kotar Review

If you're a fan of point-and-click adventures then Saint Kotar might well fulfil your needs.

The Entropy Centre Review

If you love your puzzlers and adore what the likes of Portal can deliver to the gaming world, then you are going to love The Entropy Centre.

Somerville Review

Somerville is an important addition to our gaming diet. It’s not worried about pushing boundaries in terms of narrative structure or story, and never wants to guide the player too much, letting them find their own journey through a brilliant linear adventure. 

Syberia: The World Before Review

Syberia: The World Before may provide a bit of a surprise.

Brewmaster: Beer Brewing Simulator Review

Brewmaster: Beer Brewing Simulator is capable of delivering a better experience than you may imagine.

Train Life: A Railway Simulator Review

You should have a decent enough time with Train Life: A Railway Simulator, especially if you’re looking for an alternative take on railway life. 

Finding the Soul Orb Review

There’s no debate that Tonguç Bodur knows how to create a game, yet whilst Finding the Soul Orb has some good bones to it in terms of the linear narrative journey and artistic visuals, it isn't one of his best games.

The Dark Pictures Anthology: The Devil in Me Review

The Devil in Me isn’t the best game in The Dark Pictures Anthology, but it isn’t bad at all. It’ll keep you entertained all the way through, and it's a brilliant laugh to play alongside others - the scares that play out when you have a room full of people are second to none.

Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord Review

For many, it will be the ambition of taking a character from nothing before throwing them into a huge adventure, one full of heart and soul, which will be the key to Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord.
