Hello Neighbor Review

Hello Neighbor has been around for a while now but recently released on Xbox One. Back in 2015 Dynamic Pixels Kickstarter campaign fell short of its goal, but that didn’t stop Dynamic Pixels. Over the past two years or so, they’ve released several Alpha and Beta builds which have attracted

Doom Nintendo Switch Edition

Nintendo are known for being pretty cookie cutter especially with most of their newer generations of consoles and devices. Wholesome family fun is more what comes to mind, I suppose. That is why, I, and probably a horde of people that own the Nintendo Switch were running down the streets

Gear.Club Unlimited

Car games are my go to for when I want to just relax, bizarre right? There’s just something mind numbing about driving around a track, just concentrating on the black road in front of you. Even in real life, when stuff gets tense, in the car I go, and off

Witch Thief Beta

Witch Thief tests your speed, maneuvering and timing in this fast-paced shooter. Where every move can bring you one step closer or one step away from reaching your goal of obtaining the ancient Grimoire. The music really gets you going and keeps the heart racing for more, with visually amazing

Hand Of Fate 2

Hand of Fate 2 is a single player card game, with action role-playing elements developed by Defiant Development. Now to be honest, I’m not a huge card game player, unless it’s playing UNO with my kids but after playing Hand of Fate 2 it was actually pretty fun, not slow

Numantia

Numantia with its deep roots in the conflict of Rome against Numantia. Includes a strong story driven campaign that delivers an interesting look into the past for both sides of this long-lasting conflict between these two adversaries. With two sides to choose from, starting with Numantia (for which the game

Little Nightmares: Secret of the Maw

Earlier in the year I played and reviewed a little indie horror game called “Little Nightmares”, and absolutely loved it despite being a huge sook when it comes to anything remotely scary. There was no way I expected this game to be one of my favourites of the year, but

Super Lucky’s Tale

Xbox has a new furry friend for us to play as, it’s a tale about a fox and his name is Lucky. This is a 3D platformer and it can be compared to Yooka Laylee, Crash Bandicoot and Snake Pass and was a launch title for the Xbox One X.

Super Mario Odyssey

Mario is the icon of gaming. There is no debating this. Ask anyone to name a famous gaming character and hands down most people without blinking would say MARIO. Starring in over 200 titles, he is cherished by the young and old in the gaming community, and we are very

The Sims 4

Story time again! Cue the audience eye roll, but truly this is why we love video games, the memories attached. The original Sims was the first ever game I played on PC, and holy hell did I play the crap out of it. It was a game we could spend

Football Manager 2018

Football Manager 2018 is the latest iteration of a franchise that has been around in some form or another since the early 90’s. This is a game for only the most hardcore of Football (Soccer for us Aussies) fans. Let me explain with my take on this very in-depth and

Assault Android Cactus

Hey gamers, here’s my latest gaming review for Assault Android Cactus. Personally I had already reviewed this game back in 2015 on Steam, and boss man Lance reviewed it also for the Playstation 4 last year, but i’m here again, this time to review for the Xbox One version. Now,

Caveman Warriors

Here’s a game about evolution, well not really… Sure it’s about cavemen and aliens but it’s just a crazy side scrolling platformer full of fun! Caveman Warriors is strictly local play only, supporting up to 4 players. Being a 4 player game, there is 4 different characters to play as.

Morphite

Humans are curious, and of what are we more curious about than Space travel? Games that involve the exploration of Space are very popular with even ‘Call Of Duty: Infinite Warfare’ incorporating what I thought was well executed with it’s interstellar spacecraft brawls, and admittedly people can’t deny the pre-release

Sonic Forces

Sonic the Hedgehog is officially 27 years old, and SEGA are still making games about him, most are good but the last few have changed the formula and well, where does Sonic Forces fit in with the rest? The story sounds much like most Sonic games, Dr. Eggman is on

Call of Duty: WWII

Hold onto your seats gamers, Sledgehammer Games has unleashed a Call of Duty game that brings back boots to the ground, and have gone back in time instead of all that future timeline BS. Call of Duty is a franchise that hasn’t been doing too well over the past few

Yomawari: Midnight Shadows

I have three favourite genres I love to play over others, side scrollers, racing games and survival horror. When you typically think of survival horror games you think of Resident Evil 7, The Evil Within, Outlast just to name a few. However Yomawari: Midnight Shadows isn’t typically like those games,

Brawlhalla

When people hear the words free to play, they think microtransactions galore, and they’re kind of right because this game is free. I’m not one to ever download free to play games, I don’t always get to play what I want seeing I’m always reviewing something, but lucky for me

Wolfenstein 2: The New Colossus

Wolfenstein 2: The New Colossus is set in a world where the Nazis have won WWII. Once again, you play as protagonist “BJ” Blazkowicz who is injured during a mission against the Nazi’s back in Wolfenstein: The New Order who then spends 14 years in a coma. Wolfenstein 2: The

Spintires: MudRunner Review

When a game comes out on Steam it can either be a major success, or it can flop. The series for Spintires is what some might call a major success as it’s a title that has sold millions of copies, and it’s also the first Spintires game to come to

Little Nightmares

I hate horror games. I was a pussy as kid, I still am a pussy as an adult. That deep fear for all things nasty, gruesome and lurky stems from my childhood. My earliest memory of feeling real fear, was sneaking out of bed in the very early 90’s, and
