Canvas Menagerie is a wholesome and sweet visual novel from Crystal Game Works that is currently in development for PC.

The first Vertigo never made it to PlayStation but the sequel from a one-man development studio has just ported PSVR2. Vertigo 2 is a First Person Shooter that sees you trapped on a planet of very alien aliens.

Ebenezer and The Invisible World – Review

Everybody Loves a Christmas Carol, it’s a literary classic with multiple adaptations over the years, from animated movies to live-action performances even going as far as modern style take during the late 90’s with Bill Murray’s Scrooged, and yet how many games are there? After a small search, all I could find was a video…

Zom100 fans were eating well in 2023, with not only the manga getting licensed but also a twelve-episode anime and this live-action film from Netflix.

Is Star Wars The Acolyte really “that” bad? – Review

Is Star Wars The Acolyte really “that” bad? – Review

There’s so much fear, hate and suffering surrounding the Internet discourse of The Acolyte that it’s tempting to let this review fall to countering arguments rather than critiquing the show itself. It would be much easier to review without all that noise and to be fair it would also be much easier to watch and enjoy. The Acolyte has its flaws, but perhaps surprisingly they’re not the same flaws that The Internet is crying about. About 100 years before the events of The Phantom Menace, a group of force-sensitive witches raise two girls. Things are a bit creepy and cult-like, […]

Launder Your Way To Success in Arcade Paradise VR – Review

Launder Your Way To Success in Arcade Paradise VR – Review

Arcade Paradise VR doesn’t mess around when it comes to nostalgia. The main menu drops you in front of a classic arcade cabinet in some black void with a carpet that instantly teleported me back twen… thirt… a good number of years. Man, I’m getting old. Once this game gets going, you’ll be managing your own arcade keeping the place tidy, buying new machines, setting the cost per play and bonus you get to play the games in your spare time! There are challenges on each of the 37 games available that once completed boost the cabinets’ popularity. So being […]

Are you ready for Rogue Flight? – Review

Are you ready for Rogue Flight? – Review

Rogue Flight slapped me in the face with a retro anime-inspired trailer mere weeks ago, and now it’s here (or nearly, the launch date is 25th October) on PS5, PC, Switch and XBSX. It’s a blast from the past with some good old-school arcade-inspired shooting ‘em up. Think of something like Afterburner. Or minigames from countless other titles including Bayonetta and Kingdom Hearts? Please don’t tune-out at my Gummi Ship allusion, Rogue Flight is different! Primarily, Rogue Flight is a 3D third-person space shooter with your view set behind your overpowered starfighter as waves of enemies and giant bosses fly […]

Looney Tunes: Wacky World of Sports – Review

Looney Tunes: Wacky World of Sports – Review

What we have with Looney Tunes: Wacky World of Sports is a collection of four sports games: Golf, Tennis, Football (Soccer), and Basketball. All four are solid, if rather basic, but given the subject matter here, I don’t think anyone buying this will be looking for deep simulations! These are meant to be light-hearted, arcade-style fun, best experienced with friends. Golf is basic, as I say. You can switch between an overhead view to gauge distance and a behind-character angle to take the shot, which is taken by pressing “A” to start a power bar, “A” to stop it, and […]

Explore the Unknown in Two Point Museum – Review

In the decades since the creation of the management-sim genre, there have been many attempts to redesign and rejuvenate the formulae.

With the success of Two Point Campus now under their belt, will Two Point Museum bring anything new to the table? Or will it just be another Hospital wannabe?
