On 6 January, this week, an oncoming milestone has finally passed and the first Virtual Reality tech is now open for pre-order. Yes, it’s been a long time coming and Oculus Rift beat HTC Vive and Project Morpheus to the punch… but at what cost? Early news articles and retail guesses for the 2016 release assumed…
“Oh what a day – what a lovely day!” is what I want to call from rooftops as we’ve finally been given a release date for Rise of the Tomb Raider on Steam and Windows. For those of you who have all the consoles and don’t know anything of exclusives and timed exclusives you’re one of…

In a world where games are flourishing and thousands of people build interesting, entertaining products each year, it’s hard for a single game to stand out. If there’s one ultimate thing I’ll say about The Rivers of Alice it’s that it certainly is unique and undeniably stands out from the crowd. Created by Spanish developers Delirium Studios,…

With 5.2gb of glory, users should now experience the first three books of Dreamfall…

Given this Friday’s spoooooky date let’s celebrate #FreeGameFriday with a spoooooky game! This week’s choice is Deep Sleep, a point-and-click adventure game by Polish game designer Scriptwelder. What you’ll love about this week’s game is that, on top of it being free, there are no downloads necessary – that’s right folks: it’s a free browser…
Initially I was really excited about One Upon Light. After playing Limbo a couple of years back, my love of the monochrome art style blossomed and this game’s visual appeal was the first thing that caught my eye. The second, of course, was the puzzle aspect, and you’ll know by now that this humble writer…
So after a year, we’ve finally got an update on what is going on with one of the games to watch out for this coming year. Disguised as a fantasy, Hellblade is psychological-action game which has sparked excitement and given us all high hopes – especially after attending the developer’s talk a couple of weeks ago at EGX. Hellblade was originally…
When you have a side-scrolling platformer where you play a little fuzzy ball with a moustache it doesn’t quite instil confidence… I mean, what’s attractive about that? If someone asked me what Leo is I’d have to stare back at them, mouth slightly agape, while my eyes drift slowly apart. He’s a fuzzy blue ball…
Initially it was all about sparkling vampires, then werewolves and now zombies… but Zombie Vikings? Those are two words I never thought I’d hear together, especially when they’re included in the same game as Odin and his cheeky not-so-nipper, Loki. Sadly we’re not faced with Anthony Hopkins and Tom Hiddleston (mmm), but instead we’re given…
The Witch’s House is a PC horror game made in RPG Maker. I know these games aren’t everyone’s cup of tea but trust me when I tell you, you have to play this one. Both gloriously terrifying and utterly heart-racing, this seemingly simplistic little game will make your palms sweat and your legs jig. You’ll…
Volume is not a game for the impatient, nor is it for the action addicts. Instead its audience lies in the practicing ninjas and silent assassins of the game world. It is a carefully constructed homage to the stealth genre which we play in whispers rather than screams. Developed by the incredible Mike Bithell, Volume…
After much anticipation, Until Dawn finally graced the living rooms of UK residents on 28 August this year. This was not my first encounter with the dreaded teen-slasher however; I’d played the demo at EGX 2014 – a piece chosen to include a certain ghost which springs out of nowhere to frighten the bejesus out of us…
We all remember feeling chills when watching The Omen. Reboot or not, there was something about that little boy that made you not want to have kids in case you inadvertently ended up giving birth to the devil’s spawn – him, and the little girls from The Shining. Come play with you? No, no I…
In a world where survival games are blurring together, Better Late Than DEAD decides to try its hand at carving its own path. There are good things and there are bad things, but I’ve kept my mind open to the fact it’s still early days for this game. I hadn’t even heard of this game…
This War of Mine is not glorious, nor is it satisfying. It is real. War is what makes us into the creatures we’ve chosen not to be in order to exist for one more day. 11 a.m. – Only five days have passed since war decimated our city. The first few scavenging trips were successful, but the…
To start, let’s get this straight. I’ve never been one for war games. I didn’t like Call of Duty nor Battlefield, but that’s just my personal preference. Growing up I played games like Tomb Raider and Tenchu, so I’ve still killed my fair share of bad guys and did I feel guilty about it? Nah….
