The funky 70’s style music and art style are immediately appealing in Honey I joined a Cult, which, if the title didn’t give it away, revolves around starting your own cult. You begin with an empty field and one follower…

Trifox review – My dear Foxy
Trifox is a retro 3D platformer inspired by Crash, Ratchet and Clank, and a little bit of Zelda, with some nice little twists of its own, on top. It’s an interesting mix that works for the best part as our titular hero embarks…
Read MorePaper Cut Mansion Review – Such a lovely place
Paper Cut Mansion is one of the most unique and entertaining roguelikes I’ve played in years. It’s clear from the outset that Papercraft Mansion wears its hodgepodge of influences on its sleeve. A roguelike dungeon crawler crossed with an adventure game,…
Read MoreResident Evil Village: The Winters’ Expansion review – Country roads
Resident Evil Village: The Winters’ Expansion is a decent epilogue to Resident Evil: Village with some genuinely unsettling moments and adds some great little additions to the core game, but it is by no means essential. The bulk of the expansion comprises the…
Read MoreWarhammer 40,000: Shootas, Blood & Teef review – WAAAHHH has never been so much fun
This review was written by a Freeboota who broke into the office, stole our copy of Warhammer 40,000: Shootas Blood & Teef, and then posted us a letter written in crayon ‘wiv iz thorts’. For the sake of clarity, and…
Read MoreLucy Dreaming review – Never quite as it seems
Lucy Dreaming is a quirky retro point-and-click adventure that was clearly a labour of love for everyone involved. You take on the role of Lucy, a young girl who keeps having a nightmare that she’s plummeting to her death. After reading…
Read MoreUndungeon Review – The Abyss looks back
Undungeon is a strange game. An action RPG which touches on complex themes about the nature of existence that would confuse even your average Philosophy graduate. Reality is fraying at the edges, and the numerous dimensions that make up the…
Read MoreLEGO Bricktales review – Pure imagination
LEGO Bricktales is a back-to-basics LEGO game that dumps the big-name IPs in favour of the simple joys of building with those delightful coloured bricks. The story sees you play the grandson of an eccentric inventor that owns a run-down theme…
Read MoreNo More Heroes III review – God damn superhero
No More Heroes III (NMH3) is one of the best action games I have ever played. An absolute treat for long-time fans of the series and newcomers alike. It’s stylish, gratuitous, fun, and hilarious. If you haven’t played it yet, you…
Read MoreNo Place for Bravery review – Viking death march
Glitch Factory’s No Place for Bravery (NPFB) is a touching isometric souls-like about the lengths a father is willing to go to for his children. Players step into the boots of Thorn, a world-weary warrior who has put his violent past behind…
Read MoreBeacon Pines review – A place both wonderful and strange
It’s not often that you get to describe a game as Lynchian, and it is always a treat when you can. Hiding Spot Game’s Beacon Pines is the very definition of Lynchian. Beacon Pines is about small-town America and the…
Read MoreSoul Hackers 2 review – Cogito, ergo sum
Shin Megami Tensei (SMT) is a name you can trust. Atlus’s flagship conglomerate of JRPGs featuring teens, demons, and a heavy dose of philosophy has a reputation for being some of the genre’s best. So it seems odd that other…
Read MoreChenso Club review – Go, shorty
Aliens are invading – the planet’s only hope – the Chenso Club, a group of androids, each with a unique set of skills, and their leader, Blue, has chainsaws for arms (who doesn’t love chainsaw arms?) Blue cuts a swathe through…
Read MoreTinykin review – Urban Spaceman
Splashteam’s Tinykin answers the question: What if Pikmin was a collectathon puzzle platformer? It may sound like a crazy idea, but I have to tell you it works incredibly well and has been some of the most fun I have…
Read MoreDestroy All Humans! 2: Reprobed review – A stone cold groove
The original Destroy All Humans! will always have a special place in my twisted little heart. Cryptosporidium 137’s maniacal quest to conquer America for the Furon empire remains a hilarious jaunt. While Black Forest Games 2020 effort was the kind of pitch-perfect…
