Call of Duty Vanguard Review: War Never Changes
game review10 November 2021
What can you expect from a Call of Duty game besides another campaign mode, more multiplayer, and zombies? Hopefully enough to warrant another purchase.
Call of Duty Vanguard Review: War Never ChangesForza Horizon 5 Review - The King Becomes Emperor
game review04 November 2021
The best racing game just became even better, and it doesn’t look like anything is going to claim the crown from Forza Horizon 5 anytime soon. However, “the best” doesn’t mean “perfect.” The competitors still have a chance to seize the throne.

game review29 October 2021
With an original cast and storyline, the video game version of Guardians of the Galaxy rivals that of the movies. But what parts of it are cinematic and where does it fall short? Read our review.
Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy Review: Brilliant BanterFatal Frame Maiden of Black Water Review: A Slow, Underwhelming Burn
game review28 October 2021
Project Zero: Maiden of Black Water (or Fatal Frame) brings a supernatural story to all platforms this Halloween, but a multitude of factors keep the game from reaching its full potential.
Fatal Frame Maiden of Black Water Review: A Slow, Underwhelming BurnAge of Empires 4 Review - The Return of the RTS King
game review27 October 2021
Age of Empires IV proves there’s still a place for classic RTS games in 2021. Developers have brilliantly adapted the well-known formula to modern realities. Hopefully, this will not be the last part of the series, but a completely new beginning.
Age of Empires 4 Review - The Return of the RTS KingWar Mongrels Review: Battle Weary Tactics
game review22 October 2021
Plan your moves, don’t get spotted, and complete various missions amid the dangers around you. This World War II game gives you classic RTT gameplay, but comes with some annoying setbacks too.
War Mongrels Review: Battle Weary TacticsBack 4 Blood Review - Bloody Brilliant or Dead on Arrival?
game review21 October 2021
B4B has so much potential and may end up being a near-perfect game. For the time being, it’s a solid bit of zombie slaying fun that’s a cut above some of the other undead shooting gallery games out there.
Back 4 Blood Review - Bloody Brilliant or Dead on Arrival?NHL 22 Review: Stale Icing
game review18 October 2021
NHL 22 promises some added upgrades thanks to a new engine and next-gen horsepower. With a lot of the same features returning from last year’s installment, you need to ask yourself if the upgrade is truly worth it.
NHL 22 Review: Stale IcingSuccubus Review: Dollar Store Doom Or Hellish Delight?
game review06 October 2021
The sequel to the infamous Agony is coming. This game is hell. And while it has its moments, you wouldn't want to explore that hell.
Succubus Review: Dollar Store Doom Or Hellish Delight?Far Cry 6 Review: Order in Revolution
game review06 October 2021
Taking place on a tropical island during a revolution, Far Cry 6’s plot reads like a page out of a Cuban history book. But its themes, wacky weapons, and fictional characters give it a charm of its own.

game review29 September 2021
An interactive nature documentary sounds interesting on paper, but how does it play out when you get to play as a critter for real? Let’s just say, don’t get your hopes up.

game review27 September 2021
If you’ve ever dreamt of playing with Hot Wheels toys in a video game, Milestone makes it come true. This is the ultimate proposition for Hot Wheels enthusiasts. But is it a proper game at all? Well, yes… but no. At least not right now.

game review27 September 2021
Astria Ascending, from developer Artisan Studios, is a modern classic, wonderfully modernizing the classic JRPG format with dynamic character progression and engaging turn-based combat.

game review23 September 2021
An old-school action adventure, Kena lets you purify the world and help spirits reach the afterlife. Did we mention you get to throw cute, fuzzy creatures called Rots at your enemies and watch them cuddle them into submission?
Kena: Bridge of Spirits Review: The Rot StuffMedieval Dynasty Review: To Heir Is Human
game review22 September 2021
If Animal Crossing was set in the Middle Ages and featured more realistic survival and crafting mechanics, it would be called Medieval Dynasty. Killing animals for food would also have to be there.

game review16 September 2021
Imagine a future where people are so dependent on virtual worlds that most of their lives – crimes included – takes place inside them. Hire a game detective to solve the case.

game review14 September 2021
Just like clockwork and right before the start of a new NBA season, NBA 2K22 is back with another bigger, bolder installment to give fans more of what they want.
NBA 2K22 Review: Above the RimDeathloop Review - Is Time on Arkane’s Side?
game review13 September 2021
Deathloop is awash in retro 60’s style but at the cost of real substance. Clunky gunplay and only a handful of special abilities hold what could have been a great game back. The time travel plot had promise but untimely goes unrealized.
Deathloop Review - Is Time on Arkane’s Side?Bus Simulator 21 Review: Realistically Mundane
game review11 September 2021
If you ever wanted to get a taste of what driving a bus was like without quitting your day job, Bus Simulator 21 is how you can get a taste of the action. We guarantee you will appreciate public transportation even more.

game review10 September 2021
If you had the power to find out how someone was feeling, would you try to help them or worry about your own problems instead? This question is one of many Alex Chen faces in another great entry in the Life is Strange series.
Life is Strange True Colors Review: A Rainbow of EmotionsThe Artful Escape Review: The Journey of a Musician
game review08 September 2021
The Artful Escape is a story about a young artist who struggles with his artistic identity. Does he follow in the footsteps of his uncle, a man he didn’t even know, or does he unleash his desire to become a rock star despite what people may think of him.
The Artful Escape Review: The Journey of a MusicianEncased Review: Is the Old School Still in Session?
game review07 September 2021
Encased is a solid game, yet one that struggles with its own nature. Despite being conductive to genuine emotions, the old school's biggest flaw is that it's old. Read more in our review.

game review06 September 2021
Sometimes a break from your current reality is what you need to clear your mind and realize what’s important in life. Are you drawn to money, career, or are your friends and connecting with special people what you really yearn for?

game review02 September 2021
Song of Iron is the result of one solo developer’s hard work and determination to turn his ideas into a video game. This is Joe Winter’s first solo project and it is truly a labor of love.
