I follow a pretty merciless king whose main role seems to be sending knights into the pits of death to recover the Cup of Life. Be honest, that’s not really the most conventional start to a review, but it’s the basis behind Life Goes On: Done to Death. Life Goes On: Done to Death is a new and…

Blizzard has announced through their Overwatch Twitter account @PlayOverwatch that the open beta for Overwatch has been extended by a day and will now end on Tuesday, 10 May at 6pm GMT. They’ve done so in typical Blizzard fashion citing that it was at the request of hero Winston: Winston politely requested the Open Beta be extended…
I was intrigued by Overwatch as soon as Blizzard announced it as their first new IP for 17 years at Blizzcon 2014. It’s a 6v6 hero-based shooter – something you’ve probably heard a lot recently – with enough variety in its heroes to keep it interesting. It’s also a *expletive* ton of fun. It’s a joy…
In Trion World’s May producer’s letter, executive producer for Atlas Reactor Peter Ju, has outlined their plan going forward with a “premium digital game model”.

I’d known about Atlas Reactor from its appearance on Twitch during the game’s closed alpha. Developed by Trion Worlds, who are known more for their MMORPGs, Atlas Reactor is a 4v4 turn-based strategy game with 16 playable characters – known as Freelancers. I spent some time in the closed beta to try the game out, and even though its…

Is this what drugs are like? Is this drugs? Or some kind of twisted dream? I was a Salmon with a posse of King Crabs and King Lobsters fighting a Great White Shark… and then I absorbed its genes? No, it’s not drugs; it’s Ace of Seafood. It’s ridiculous in so many ways but there…

I’m not going to sugar coat this in any way:Â Mysterious Castle is awful. It’s frustrating, boring, easy, confusing, and the only thing mysterious about it is how it made its way onto Steam. Mysterious Castle is a casual point and click adventure game developed by OpenXcell Studio and published by Black Shell Media. It’s essentially…

You wouldn’t catch me dead in the ocean. Well, not unless I’ve slipped through the justice system in Dexter that is. In the past few years, there’s been a resurgence of exploration games based underwater, and though they can sometimes scare the hell out of me, I can’t help but enjoy playing them. I suffer…
There was a point with Sadame where I put it down and declared I was done with it, mainly because of its ridiculous difficulty spike towards the end, and its annoyingly convoluted systems. However, I forced myself to pick it back up just to see if I could finish it for the sake of this…
