Nalezeno "Game Review": 21

Flintlock: The Siege Of Dawn: The Kotaku Review

17.7.2024
The world has been plunged into darkness. The dead persist violently among the living. What remains of humanity following a cataclysm I helped trigger is now at each other’s throats. I carry my share of the blame, but it’s clear the gods must pay for what they’ve done to us. There’s a path...

Stellar Blade: The Kotaku Review

24.4.2024
In many ways, Stellar Blade is awesome. The action is awesome, the soundtrack is awesome, the world is awesome. However, when you peel back the curtain just a bit and peer behind all the flash and style, you find that Shift Up’s character action game can also be quite tedious. It’s a game...

Rise Of The Ronin: The Kotaku Review

21.3.2024
Rise of the Ronin feels like a game that’s already one or two generations old. Developer Team Ninja has called it their “most ambitious” title to date, but that ambition is overshadowed by lackluster graphics, outdated design concepts, and performance issues that put the game more in line with...

This New Game Is A Great Tribute To Early Online Gaming Communities

28.8.2023
Many people who grew up with the internet had formative experiences in communities that no longer exist, or at least no longer exist as they once did. In my case, it was the GameSpot forums of the early 2000s. There, I found people I could share my love of games with, as well as get into deep...

The Texas Chain Saw Massacre Game Isn’t Scary, Unfortunately

18.8.2023
The Texas Chain Saw Massacre asymmetrical survival horror game is cleverly mapped out and atmospheric, but it isn’t scary. That’s too bad, because down to the birdsongs lilting in the game’s terracotta vision of Texas (as developer Gun CEO Wes Keltner told me earlier this summer), Texas is...

You’ve Never Heard Of This Life-Changing Horror Game

2.8.2023
Homebody is an unassuming horror game at first, set up similarly to recent socially anxious thrillers like Bodies Bodies Bodies (2022) and All My Friends Hate Me (2021): you’re late to meet up with old friends, they may or may not be mad, and there’s a killer, you think. But across the four hours...

Lies Of P Is Giving Steampunk Bloodborne With 60 FPS Performance

15.6.2023
FromSoftware’s Bloodborne will probably linger in your mind when playing Lies of P. While the similarities are obvious, the Pinocchio Chalamet-led Soulslike is more than just a xerox of the 2015 Victorian-era masterpiece, and the recent demo makes it clear that developer Round8 Studio is more...

Frostpunk: The Board Game: The Kotaku Review

12.4.2023
I’ve reviewed a lot of board game adaptations of video games on this website, and with good reason: it’s the most intimate intersection of our board game and video game coverage. In nearly every case, the key consideration has been how does the board game feel compared to the original. What kind...

This Horror Game Turns Fishing Into Psychological Warfare

30.3.2023
Suddenly, my boat crashes. When I wake up, wet on a wooden dock in a town I don’t know, the lighthouse above doesn’t look like it’s pointing toward salvation. But I’m playing the disquieting new fishing sim Dredge, and I eventually learn that feeling out of my depth—subject to the changing waters’...

Season: A Letter To The Future - The Kotaku Review

3.2.2023
Season: A Letter to the Future is the disappointing evidence that beauty is only skin and texture deep. This slow-paced explore ‘em up, in which you must chronicle and journal the end of an era, is rigid-jawed with sincerity, though lacking in anything meaningful to say.Read more

Deep Rock Galactic (The Board Game): The Kotaku Review

19.1.2023
Co-op shooter Deep Rock Galactic was first released on the PC back in 2018. It has a dedicated following online, and tons of loyal fans, but this is not a review of the video game. This is a review of the board game with, confusingly, the exact same name.Read more

A Phenomenal Anime Like Made In Abyss Deserves A Better Video Game Than This

20.9.2022
Anime adaptations of video games are entering a renaissance of sorts with the critical success of Netflix’s Cyberpunk: Edgerunners, Arcane, and Castlevania. Unfortunately, if we flip the process around, the same can’t be said for the latest video game adaptation of the dark fantasy anime Made...

Fire Commander Is A Firefighting Game That Doesn't Suck

5.8.2022
There have been firefighting games for as long as there have been video games, but for whatever reason—and I’ll speculate on this in a second—there has never been a great one. Fire Commander is the latest game to try and break this duck, and while it doesn’t make it, I at least admire the way...

Snoop Dogg, Deadmau5 and NFTs — The Sandbox Alpha Game Review

17.12.2021
I came to the Sandbox Alpha for the musical experiences of Snoop Dogg and Deadmau5. It was awesome dancing with my voxelated avatar: green hair, pink sports bra, denim shorts, yellow stockings, and red shoes. All with the insane creatures around me dancing, and the feeling of indulging in a real...
