Monkey King takes me back to an old-time, neither good nor bad, just old. Everything about the game screams old, from the dated graphics to the dated combat and dated core game mechanics and yet, somehow, it is still charming. Do you want to know how old this game feels like? It doesn’t stream the…
Children of Morta is a really unique game. It masterfully combines randomly generated levels with an intriguing set narrative, something which we don’t really see in rogue-lite games. Corruption has spread out and is affecting everything in the world and it is up to the game protagonists, the Bergsons, to venture into the dungeons and…

I am a sucker for good puzzle games and The Sojourn, a first-person puzzler, perfectly fits into that category.

Developer Frogwares has announced that The Sinking City on Nintendo Switch has an official release date: Thursday, September 12th, 2019. We initially wanted to do a physical release – we know lots of players prefer these – but we were eventually forced to put this off for now. We didn’t want to take too long to release the…
Control is the most exciting game I’ve played in the last few years. Everything about it, apart from the abysmal console framerate, feels so special, creative and satisfying. Remedy truly poured all their love, heart and creativity when designing Control and it shows during the 25 hours of playtime. Control’s world is one of the…
