Q.U.B.E.: Director’s Cut (PS4): COMPLETED!
Posted on 17/06/2019 Written by
I’d read in a lot of places, and the screenshots didn’t help, that Q.U.B.E. was a poor man’s Portal. Aside from the first person view and the clinical environments, it really isn’t. Mainly because there aren’t any … [Continue reading]
Golden Axe III (Switch): COMPLETED!
Posted on 15/06/2019 Written by
Is Golden Axe III going to be a good game, given the previous two were not? Go on, have a guess. At least it tried. Instead of being almost exactly the same as the other games, the graphics are all new, the animation is new, and most of the baddies … [Continue reading]
Assassin’s Creed Origins (PS4): COMPLETED!
Posted on 14/06/2019 Written by
My understanding of this game was that it wasn’t anything like previous Assassin’s Creed games. It was written from scratch, didn’t reuse any engine or assets, and had completely new gameplay. The title also suggests it’s the … [Continue reading]
Pikuniku (Switch): COMPLETED!
Posted on 10/06/2019 Written by
Pikuniku is a… game best discovered for yourself. Partly because that’s genuinely true, but also because it’s a little hard to describe. Sure, I can tell you it’s a sort of platformer with puzzles and bosses, and there’s … [Continue reading]
Day of the Tentacle Remastered (PS4): COMPLETED!
Posted on 09/06/2019 Written by
I was 100% certain I’d played the original game before. I can clearly remember some parts of the game, some of the puzzles and characters, some of the events from when I originally had it on my Amiga. So imagine my surprise that I actually … [Continue reading]
Sparkle 2 (PS4): COMPLETED!
Posted on 06/06/2019 Written by
Sparkle 2, or “I Can’t Believe It’s Not Zuma” was a free PS+ rental that I’ve been playing off and on for a few months. It’s not taxing, it’s not hard, but it is fun in the same way Zuma was. It’s just … [Continue reading]
The Way Remastered (Switch): COMPLETED
Posted on 02/06/2019 Written by
I’m not sure what exactly is “remastered” about this game, having no experience of the original. An original which is only a few years old itself, actually. I’m also not sure what sort of game it’s trying to be. To … [Continue reading]
Gato Roboto (Switch): COMPLETED!
Posted on 31/05/2019 Written by
Imagine if Downwell’s graphics were applied to Super Metroid, only you were a cat? That’s Gato Roboto. How could I not buy it then complete it in one afternoon given that description? Turns out it’s really very good too. … [Continue reading]
