Atomic Heart – Review

If there is one game that I’ve had my eye on since it was first announced, it would have to be Atomic Heart by the folks over at Mundfish. With a very Bioshock feel to it, Atomic Heart is set in an alternate vision of the USSR where a scientist

SpongeBob SquarePants: The Cosmic Shake – Review

Okay, you either love or hate Spongebob Squarepants, the titular yellow sponge with the annoying voice that obscurely lives in a pineapple under the sea. ‘Spongebob Squarepants: The Cosmic Shake,’ by Purple Lamp Studios, is a perfect reimagining of the Spongebob Squarepants cartoons as a game, and it’s somewhat of

Dead Space (Xbox Series X) – Review

The original Dead Space came out back in 2008 and instantly became one of my all-time favourite games. Even today, this science-fiction horror masterpiece still holds up, so when Motive and Electronic Arts announced a “Remake”, I was beyond excited to see what they would do with it. For those

Breakers Collection (Xbox Series X) – Review

The 90s was an era that helped define the arcade scene and fighting game genre.

Somerville (Xbox Series X) – Review

Mystery. An air of mystery goes a long way for me in a game. There is something about diving into the unknown to solve mysteries with great consequences and winding trials. ‘Somerville’ developed by JumpShip, while dark and mysterious, answers none of my lingering questions at its conclusion.
