Mortal Shell (Xbox One) – Review

You’d think, for being such a submissive for Dark Souls and its ilk, I’d have known about Mortal Shell as soon as it was announced. However, as I assume most were, I was looking at it with bleary and tempered eyes thinking that we’re riding…

Spinch (PC) Review

Indie games are a dime a dozen, so they have to have a flashy gimmick to make them stand out from the pack. In Spinch‘s case, it’s just about as flashy as can be, as anyone with a pair of eyeballs will be…

Dr Who “Daleks In Manhattan” & “Evolution Of The Daleks” Review

It is a testament to the concept and damning praise on the episodes themselves, but I can easily name most of the episodes in the three series I’ve covered so far. This double-bill isn’t quite so easy. I wondered while I drafted…

Project Cars 3 (XBO) – Review

When you think of old fashioned driving, you are probably too young to think of brown leather driving gloves, a varsity jacket that’s two sizes too small and filled with cigarettes, both worn by a man with a thinning white beard and…

Lovecraft Country Episode 2 Review: “Whitey’s on the Moon”

Warning: This article contains mentions of racism, racist violence, slavery, rape, death, gun violence, and spoilers for Lovecraft Country. Where Lovecraft Country left us with last week’s striking first episode, our heroes found themselves harried, harangued and worse for wear, but with…

Games like Portal and Antichamber have captivated the minds of puzzle gamers for years now. Granted, with that love for first-person puzzle solving, we’ve also gotten a lot of games that haven’t really…innovated the genre. Superliminal is an example of a first-person…

The Orville Season 2 – Ep 9 Review

Warning: The following review contains spoilers from Episode 8 of The Orville Season 2, as well as Episode 9. The Orville has cemented itself (for me anyway) as one of the best Sci-Fi series on television right now. With the cancellation of…

Doctor Who Series 3 “Gridlock” – Review

In the last few days, I’ve watched both some of the most infuriating and best Doctor Who there is. Not only that, but I’ve also been listening to it and learning more about Evelyn Smythe who I’m ranking up there with Martha as…

Wasteland 3 (PC) – Review

The following review may contain minor spoilers for Wasteland 3‘s first few hours. Since about 2009 when I first saw the cover of Wasteland, and incrementally over the years knowing the setting of the series, I’ve wanted to get into the franchise. Those…

Fall Guys: Ultimate Knockout (PC) Review

After swearing off Battle Royale games from several toxic hours with Playerunknown’s Battlegrounds, I didn’t think I’d return to the volatile genre ever again. That was until I was so generously gifted Fall Guys: Ultimate Knockout to play with my girlfriend and…
