Damn, God Of War Ragnarök’s Opener Still Whips
24.9.2024
I’ve been replaying God of War Ragnarök now that it’s on PC, and despite some clear, widespread technical issues with depreciating framerate, this is still fundamentally the same excellent sequel that launched on PlayStation in 2022. I put a few hours into the game again to test how it ran on...

There's No Wrong Way To Tackle Visions Of Mana's Bosses, But There's A Right Way For You
24.9.2024
Visions of Mana is a predominantly linear game, but Chapter Seven throws a curveball. With three boss fights against the Benevodons down and only five to go, you can choose to take on the next four elemental demons in any order you like. It’s a vaguely Mega Man style structure, since each boss will...

Of all the games I’ve played this year, Children of the Sun is far and away the most hostile. This trippy shooter follows The Girl, a survivor of The Cult’s abuses, as she takes her revenge on them and The Leader.

23.9.2024

Zelda-Inspired Plucky Squire Shows What Happens When A Game Doesn't Trust Its Players
19.9.2024
I really enjoyed The Plucky Squire, an action-adventure game in the vein of classic Legend of Zelda titles. It’s got not one, but two, whimsical art styles: one reminiscent of children’s picture books, and another in which the hero is presented as a miniature toy that comes to life in a child’s...
It’s Always A Good Time To Return To Return To Monkey Island
19.9.2024
Making a sequel to an amazing game is hard enough, but with each subsequent entry that task gets even harder. So while 1991's point-and-click adventure game Monkey Island 2 is seen as a stunning improvement over its predecessor, the more the series went on, the harder it was to recapture...
Star Wars Outlaws' Speeder Bike Sucks, Here's How to Improve It
19.9.2024
With multiple planets to explore, and quests that send you far and wide across the vast landscapes, traversing the likes of Toshara on foot is a fool’s errand. You need a fast-moving vehicle, and the game provides you with an iconic speeder bike relatively early. There’s just one problem: at...
This Fantastic Roguelike Deck-Builder Is A Bargain On Steam Right Now
19.9.2024
Two game genres that never seem to click with me are roguelikes and deck-builders (I know, sue me), so it came as a shock when I found myself loving Inscryption. The 2021 title from developer Daniel Mullins is both of those genres mashed together. As you progress, however, you’ll learn that...

19.9.2024
If you played God of War: Ragnarok on PlayStation, then punctuating your declarations about how bloody marvelous it is, you will almost inevitably have cried, “STOP TELLING ME WHAT TO DO!” For some reason, Ragnarok is absolutely convinced that you’re stuck, all the time, and has its characters...

Survival and city-building mashup Frostpunk 2 is set to release in just a couple days on September 20, and fans couldn’t be more excited. That hype is due to just how good its predecessor, 2018’s Frostpunk, is. If you haven’t played the original game, it takes the resource-management and society...
