Grimshade – Review

It’s a win-some, lose-some chance with fund raising websites. Sometimes, the money doesn’t reach the required amount and a proposed product dwindles in the wind, swirling in hopes of being grounded and restarted. Other times, it pays off immensely, going way beyond what was required and smashing all required pledge

Skorecery – Review

Skorecery is not a game where you can spend endless hours getting engrossed into an awesome story line with great cinematic enjoyment. Instead, this game has you duelling it out with your friends to see who is the greatest of all with this fast-paced game.

The Messenger – Review

Everybody was kung-fu fighting…… Okay, now thats out of my system. I can move on with my review. The Messenger launched first on the Playstation 4, and is later coming to Windows & Nintendo Switch. This is a fun side scroller that’s a tale of a ninja.

She Remembered Caterpillars – Review

‘She Remembered Caterpillars’ developed by Jumpsuit Entertainment is like an onion. On the surface it looks like a typical puzzle solving game, nothing too special, but as you dig deeper through the layers to the core, there is actually a deep narrative hidden within.

Tom Clancy’s The Division 2 – Review

In this month alone, 2 highly anticipated looters and shooters dropped. One is doing well, while the other seemed to struggle from launch. The Division 2, the second in a franchise from Ubisoft has hit the shelves in a whirlwind, but it had me thinking what did it do so

Beat Cop – Review

If there wasn’t a police force the world would be quite hectic, most of us will never become a cop, but thanks to video games we sometimes can at least pretend to be one in the virtual world. Beat Cop is essentially a police simulator game, and a cool one

Man, games these days are generally too complicated. This is neither a bad thing nor a good thing, but I find when they are too complicated they become frustrating and it just rips the enjoyment out of it. Dropping this violent, blood-soaked romp in my lap, Ape Out by Digital

Anthem – Review

I’m very hit and miss with grindy game play. Where as I was right into the ‘Diablo 3’ and ‘The Division’, even needing eye drops after a 14 hr session once, I totally missed ‘The Destiny’ train. I’d also like to point out I’m very hit and miss with Bioware
