Now, ‘Dodgeball Academia’ by Pocket Trap and Ivan Freire is certainly one of the more unique games I have played in a while. Who would have thought a sports game and an RPG would have smashed together so fluidly? Not me, that’s for sure. You play as our hero, Otto,

Queeny Army (Nintendo Switch) – Review

The run ‘n’ gun genre has been around for a very long time, with greats such as ‘Contra’, ‘Metal Slug’ and hybrid games such as ‘Megaman’; the benchmark that many aspire to match. Queeny Army, developed by Lemoonpie games, with the help of EastAsiaSoft publishing work, have created a very

Nerf Legends – Review

For my entire childhood, Nerf guns were a staple in fuelling my imagination of a wild shoot-out in my backyard or living room. Whether I was trying to emulate Rambo with a giant machinegun-style Nerf blaster as a kid, or John Wick with a Nerf pistol as an adult, the
