Real-Time Strategy games have always held a special place in my heart. One of the first I ever played was the original Age of Empires, which was then followed by StarCraft, and eventually, WarCraft. Hell, I even played the Dawn of War franchise. There’s just something about gathering resources, building
Have you ever had a dream that starts off distant, yet familiar, and the longer you stay in the dream the more it unravels and the more twisted it becomes? Yeah, me neither. Well, maybe once or twice… this month. Anyway, the point I am trying to make is the

Party games are a great time for everyone involved, directly challenging your friends for those oh-so glorious bragging rights, much like Mario party, Among Us, any board game, and all other party games, they are a lot more exciting when playing with friends and people you are comfortable with showing
For the second time in less than a decade, I have sat idly by while a new entry to the Guardians of the Galaxy franchise was creeping ever closer. Perhaps it worked in my favour that I didn’t hype myself up for the movie or the game, because the results
WOLOLO! Rejoice, my brethren, for a great deity from prophecies long past is upon us! WOLOLO! It finally happened! After 16 years from the last installment, and 22 years since the greatest title in this franchise was released, developers, Relic Entertainment and Worlds Edge have been hard at work making
It’s that spooky time of year where we actively seek out the thrill of sharing a few screams with some friends from the comfort of our homes. The dedicated people over at Supermassive have added the third entry into the Dark Pictures Anthology, namely House of Ashes, just in time
In the early 2000’s my PC was under heavy strain from two particular games, ‘Diablo 2’ and ‘Total Annihilation’. I like to imagine that one night, 20 years ago, those two snuck away and made a baby that has grown up to become “The Riftbreaker” and is finally ready to
Let me take you back to a simpler time, where you would buy a bag of toy soldiers and proceed to wage an all-out war of epic proportions. The only limitation was your imagination and how rough you were with the little plastic units. Finding little cut-outs in the backyard
Surprisingly, I am pretty into car games. I grew up around my dad dicking around under a hood and often had guy friends through school chasing the next cheapest part for the tiniest boost in performance. ‘Street Outlaws 2: Winner Takes All’ by Team6 Games Studios, takes you to the
All the way back in 1999, the legends of Nintendo were brought together in a crossover brawl for all of epic proportions when ‘Super Smash Bros’ was released on the Nintendo 64. Since then, the Smash Bros series has always raised the bar higher and higher with each sequel and

Developed by Remedy Entertainment and published by Epic Games, this remaster is almost exactly like the original and comes with the two DLC episodes. It was decided that they were not going to make any major changes and instead, just some graphical tweaks. However, thanks to PS5’s new controllers, there
Ok. I never played the ‘Left 4 Dead’ games and I am glad. I can go into this review with a clear mind and without having to compare to those famously popular games despite the newest zombie horde game ‘Back 4 Blood’ being their spiritual successor. ‘Back 4 Blood’ by
Lemnis Gate is a new first-person shooter and turned-based strategy game, created and published by Ratloop Games Canada. My first thought when I read how the game played out was confusing and I didn’t think it was going to work, but boy was I wrong. The game is so well
Do you remember when your primary school teachers tried to convince you that math could be fun? There was a time where they almost convinced me it was, up until I was halfway through high school and my maths teacher basically told us that not all of us will make

‘Lost Judgment’, a sequel to 2018’s “Judgment” is by far the most ambitious and narratively unique experience I have had the pleasure of playing in 2021.

June 29th, 2000, the release date of the original Diablo II on PC, yep, I was 13 years old. Little did I know the games I dabbled in back then would thrust me into something I love so much 21 years later. Although I wasn’t a PC gamer back then,
The shoe that fits one person, pinches another; there is no recipe for living that suits all cases. A rather fitting quote by Carl Jung for my experience with “In Sound Mind” by developer We Make Stuff. I’m not usually an avid fan of the horror genre, however, the concept
‘World War Z’ released in 2019 and made by Saber Interactive, came out swinging hard as it grew a great community on release. I bought this on day one and loved every moment that the game had to offer. A zombie survival game much like ‘Left 4 Dead’, it features
Thanks to Milestone ‘Hot Wheels Unleashed’ has been brought to PlayStation 4|5 Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch, and PC. Hot Wheels Unleashed is a fun game for all ages where players load up, are given three blind boxes of cars to open, and then hit the twisting and
Developed by Deck Nine and published by Square Enix, Life Is Strange: True Colors is an emotional rollercoaster that will have you in tears of joy and sadness. True Colors is a decision and consequence-based RPG; however, it feels more like an interactive animated movie. For me it was a
For someone that had no idea about ‘Tales of Arise’ at the start of the year to someone that was giddy with anticipation once I played the demo, I am now a full-blown fanboy after playing the full release. Developed and published by Bandai Namco Studios, this single-player JRPG will
