I'm a sucker for a turn-based strategy game, so a new entry into the market always gets me excited. I loved the Fire Emblem and Advance Wars games back when I had my Gameboy Advance, so seeing that 6 Eyes Studio has taken Fire Emblem as one of the inspirations for Fell Seal: Arbiter's Mark had the old gaming juices flowing before I even turned it on.
During my time with Darksiders 3, I couldn't help but constantly compare it to the Dark Souls games. Both now share a lot more beyond the mere word "Dark" in their titles. From challenging combat, an interconnected world and collection of souls, the third entry seems to have drawn an ample amount of inspiration from the Souls series. Even certain boss battles summon a sense of deja vu, but with all these similarities, does Darksiders 3 stand on its own and, more importantly, serve as a worthy sequel to its predecessors?
Should you be one of the many who has spent some time with The Council, then you are no doubt sitting back patiently waiting for the release of the next chapter. Today, that chapter has got itself a release date and details.Â

Roguelike is a genre that seems to have crept out of the shadows over the last couple of years with titles like Spelunky, Enter the Gungeon and FTL: Faster than Light all garnering solid sales. Once the kingdom of only the most hardcore of players it is a genre that requires patience as you die over and over all the while grinding away to progress a little further. Some roguelikes have now been dubbed roguelites because they cushion the player with engaging progression systems or gameplay mechanics making the frustration a little more bearable. Others will crush you until you sit in a corner blubbering to yourself.
Wizard of Legend tries to straddle the fine line between the two and almost successfully manages to do just that.
When Focus Home Interactive decided to deliver an episodic storyteller into our lives, we didn't really know what to expect. I mean, only Telltale Game do that well, do they not? Well, no, and it seems Focus are on to a bit of a winner with The Council as today we see the second episode arrive.Â
Sometimes all we really want is to become immersed in a stunning story, void of any shooting, combat and the like. The Council, which debuts today with its first episode - The Mad Ones - is just that.
The Xbox is right up there in and amongst the most popular choices in the console market, so it’s rare that Xbox One players miss out on a game that seems to hit most other consoles. Back in 2015 however there was one title that hit nearly every console in the market - even the Ouya - yet still happened to avoid a trip to the land of Xbox. Now though, things have changed, and Mystik Belle has arrived on Xbox One. Is the arrival something we should all be shouting about?
Hello, and welcome to a very special meeting of the Wizard's Court.
As you may all be wondering, we've come together to talk about the Mages of Mystralia, and particularly about a little redheaded girl by the name of Zia. She accidentally set her house, or rather her uncle's home, ablaze and was exiled from her village. Cast out and afraid - for the inquisition that controls these lands particularly despises mages - she is found by an older mage who takes her in to refine her skills and allow her to become a true mage.
