Caromble! (PC) Review
During my visits to the Pinball Hall of Fame, I discovered I’m a bit of a “pinball wizard,” as The Who would say. Unlike Tommy, I’m certainly not good enough at pinball to play it solely by sense of smell, but I…

Planet of Lana II (PC) – Review
It’s been 3 years since the release of Planet of Lana, and occasionally, I am still thinking about it when I see the odd side-scrolling puzzle platformer in that Inside-vein. A few years on, Wishfully and Thunderful Publishing are back with another…
Fishbowl (PC) Review
Every once in a while, a narrative game will actually stoke some emotion out of me, whether it be from relatability, evocative moments, or pure artistry. It’s even rarer to encounter a title that manages to capture all three of these –…
Minos (PC) Review
To intentionally misquote the Soldier from Team Fortress 2: “You are like the Cyclops of Greek myth, except you are the Minotaur of Greek myth, and almost everyone hates you!” What we’ve got here is Minos, developed by Artificer and published by…
Fortune Seller (PC) Review
After playing Fortune Seller’s demo a while back, I came away from it feeling interested in the final game. However, upon playing the final product for myself, I come away feeling a little cold. Fortune Seller is a fun prospect and concept,…
Legacy of Kain: Ascendance (PC) Review
The Legacy of Kain series is a sort of generational series for me. My mother loved Legacy of Kain: Blood Omen, and played the Blood Omen games as well as both Soul Reaver titles when I was younger. I grew an affection…
NUTMEG! A Nostalgic Deckbuilding Football Manager (PC) – Review
I find it difficult to have nostalgia for much, but teletext football scores feel oddly like a warm hug. NUTMEG! A Nostalgic Deckbuilding Football Manager is the new football management Rogue-lite based around deckbuilding and the 80s-90s English Football League (EFL) nostalgia…
Screamer (PC) Review
One game that caught a lot of eyes during the many trailers of The Game Awards in 2024 was Screamer. A reboot of a 30-year-old DOS racer, this iteration turned heads thanks to its anime-inspired presentation, a stark contrast from the gritty…
Rubato (PC) Review
Platformers have been going strong for decades, but there’s somehow still untapped potential. All it takes is a solid game mechanic, a unique art style, or a fine-tuned difficulty to reel players in to the tried-and-true formula. One look at the trailer…
Don’t Stop, Girlypop! (PC) – Review
I can say one thing with absolute certainty. Don’t Stop, Girlypop! isn’t something to play while sick and feeling a bit dizzy. To call Funny Fintan Softworks’ glitter-covered FPS maximalist would be an understatement, going for the most 90s-to-early-2000s aesthetic possible in…
