Mortal Shell PS4 Review – An extremely vague, abstract story, punishing combat and a dreary fantasy world. Has someone just released another SoulsBourne title? Yes, yes they have. There have been a lot of non-From Software Soulslike games over the years ranging from the great like the Nioh titles and the second entry in The … Read more

EA Sports UFC 4 PS4 Review – For casual onlookers of Mixed Martial Arts (MMA), it can be difficult to separate the brutal spectacle from the onion layered complexities and sophistications which underpin modern mixed discipline hand-to-hand combat.

Relicta PS4 Review – Every year I look forward to finding the first-person puzzle game I fall in love with and absolutely adore.

West of Dead PS4 Review – With games that embrace roguelike design, finding a way to keep the randomised repetitive levels and content fresh is something of an omnipresent bugbear that many developers have simply not been able to overcome with any degree of consistent success. West of Dead however, from Upstream Arcade, fares better … Read more

Skully PS4 Review – Every game reviewer knows the moment. You sit down with an innocuous new game that you have agreed to review. You watch the credits and the amusing opening cinematics.

Skater XL PS4 Review – Being a heavy skater in my youth and I mean a ‘real’ heavy skater, I do adore a good skateboarding game. I could kick-flip and pop shuvit with the best of them when I was younger and I did. So whenever a skateboarding game comes up, it makes me very … Read more
