14.8.2021
Sympatická směsice žánrů, která je sice zasazená do vcelku okoukaného prostředí, ovšem na zábavnosti jí to neubírá. Tribes of Midgard jsou zajímavou volbou pro ty, kteří si chtějí zkusit survival žánr, ale bojí se, že neudýchají často vysokou obtížnost
It’s Like A Nintendo Direct, But For 3D Platformers
13.8.2021
I love a good 3D platformer, but they aren’t as common as they were back in the ‘90s and 2000s. However, indie developers are here to save the day for folks craving colorful and fun jumping simulators. Hubworld is an indie-focused digital event happening later this month that is entirely dedicated...

It's Like Classic Fallout RPGs, But There's A Puke Button
10.8.2021
Death Trash’s whole vibe is summed up early in its beginning area, where the tutorial messages ask you to puke. Before you earn more flashy powers like lightning bolts and poisonous blood, the game’s dedicated ability button (‘F’ by default, in case you were wondering) is just for making your...
Four Of The Best PC Games Ever Are Free Right Now
9.8.2021
It feels like only a couple of months ago that we were reporting EA had pulled four of the all-time greatest PC games from sale on GOG. Because it was. At the time, the peculiar publisher ignored our questions as to why. Now, just over six weeks later, Ultima Underworlds 1 & 2, Syndicate,...

The Ascent Is On Console But Still Aggressively PC
5.8.2021
It’s perfect timing for a game like The Ascent. Not much else is coming out right now, so there’s more incentive to break through its slow opening to get at some of the chunkier gameplay in the back-half of the game. It’s also on Game Pass for PC and Xbox, so you can get in, give it a try,...
What You Should Know About Solar Ash, From The Makers Of Hyper Light Drifter
4.8.2021
If you played Hyper Light Drifter, you got your ass kicked by Hyper Light Drifter. Heart Machine’s top-down action RPG was a bona fide gauntlet designed to run you through the wringer (a lot) before you acclimated to its resolutely unforgiving peculiarities. So you might be pleased to hear that...
Death’s Door Is As Good As Everyone Says
3.8.2021
Within five minutes of starting Death’s Door I knew I was going to love it. The combat was basic but weighty. The visual presentation was sparse but bespoke. Its music, sometimes pastoral and serene, sometimes grim and despairing, made no secret that something special was going on, and my love...
That New Cyberpunk Game Rules, But The Multiplayer’s Kinda Busted
2.8.2021
The Ascent, a cyberpunk-themed twin stick shooter released last week for Xbox and PC, has long been billed as a single- and multiplayer game by developer Neon Giant. Thing is, for some players, the various multiplayer modes aren’t exactly working.Read more
The 15 Best Games For The PlayStation 4
2.8.2021
The PlayStation 5 is here, but that doesn’t mean you should count out the PlayStation 4. In fact, given how hard it is to get your hands on a PS4, Sony’s last-gen console is probably your best bet for playing PlayStation games. And, oh man, are there a ton of all-timers. From tight puzzle games...
Genshin Impact's Official Discord Hit Its Max User Capacity Forcing Devs To Create A Second Server
31.7.2021
I knew Genshin Impact was a popular game. I also knew it had a ton of active and ravenous players who can’t get enough of the free-to-play online RPG. But I had no idea it was so popular that it was pushing Discord to its limits and forcing the devs to start a second server for everyone.Read more
12 Hours With 2021's Latest Big Viking Game
29.7.2021
I wanted to like Tribes of Midgard. It has great style, with wonderful visuals that feel ripped out of an ancient painting. The combat is fun and responsive. But it also incorporates some of the worst parts of roguelikes and survival games and quickly becomes repetitive, with little payoff...

Tetsuya Nomura Reminds World He's A Drip God
23.7.2021
Square Enix veteran Tetsuya Nomura is known for creating RPG characters with, let’s say, more eccentric outfits than you’d see on the street or even in other video games. And as it turns out, he sometimes draws inspiration from his own wardrobe while designing in his ubiquitous, accessory-heavy...
A Gorgeous Love Letter To JRPGs Where You Bend Time
23.7.2021

Shin Megami Tensei If… Was Persona Before Persona
23.7.2021
Despite being a spin-off of a spin-off, Persona’s runaway success made it the most recognizable of the Shin Megami Tensei RPG series. But in 1994, two years before the very first Persona game arrived on PlayStation, the blueprint for those future games was laid down in another lesser-known side...
