From the twisted minds of Rougeside, Devil Jam throws players headfirst into a chaotic blend of rhythm-based action and rougelite madness. This demo offers a tantalising taste of a game that’s equal parts stylish, brutal, and surprisingly strategic. This is a game for the competitive metal heads. You play as
Recently, MKAU Gaming was invited to attend a Hands-On Preview of ‘Renown’, an upcoming title from Aussie developers RDBK Studios.

Demo builds are not uncommon by today’s standards. Everywhere you look, companies offer demos, free trials, limited access, early access, and VIP passes – you name it, there’s probably an early release. But what makes Macabre different is that it is in its demo phase, but upon playing it, you’ll
Tetris and Puyo Puyo are both classics. One focuses on creating rows of tessellating shapes, and the other on joining 4 or more “Puyos” to win. Both are iconic in their own right, but what would make them more iconic? A fusion of both. This is precisely what Puyo Puyo
Coming into Bravely Default: Flying Fairy for the first time, I wasn’t entirely sure what to expect. I’d heard the name tossed around in JRPG circles, usually with terms like “underrated gem” or “spiritual successor to Final Fantasy.” With the HD remaster landing on Nintendo Switch 2, I finally decided
The How to Train Your Dragon franchise began in 2003 as a novel series written by Cressida Cowell before being adapted into a 3D animated film in 2010 by DreamWorks and turning it into a worldwide phenomenon. Toothless became a pop culture icon, and the original film saw two sequels,
As quoted on the Steam page, “Possessor(s) is a fast-paced, action side scroller with combat inspired by platform fighters”.

From the ashes and rubble of Ballbylon rises ‘BALL x PIT’, a wildly inventive fusion of brick-breaker chaos, roguelite intensity, and some base-building strategy, all bundled into a neat little package. MKAU Gaming got an early taste of what’s to come with the demo, which throws you head first into
Nintendo is, without a doubt, the pioneer behind modern handheld gaming. Ever since they released the groundbreaking Nintendo Game Boy in 1989, they have consistently pushed the boundaries of what is possible, even going so far as to allow integration with their home-based consoles with the release of the Nintendo
In 2011, Sega released ‘Sonic Generations’ which stood out as one of the better Sonic the Hedgehog games during a time when the franchise was known for its terrible games than the good ones. It was praised by critics and mixed the classic and modern versions of the Blue Blur,
I’ve finished work for the week, picked up my much-anticipated Nintendo Switch 2, gone through the set-up process and started redeeming my game codes. Eager to play, I settle in, ready to explore all my new console has to offer, only to discover there’s no pre-installed demo or game, just
It’s been over two decades since the first crash-landing into our hearts with its heartfelt message and offbeat charm. Lilo & Stitch has returned in 2025 as a live-action reimaging under the Disney remake umbrella. It’s directed by Dean Fleischer Camp (known for Marcel the Shell with Shoes On), and
The Reign of Jafar has only just begun. Corruption of Archazia’s Island has twisted it into a menacing fortress, and ghostly illusions push his treacherous agenda. Can our favourite Disney characters rise to the challenge, or will the realm of Lorcana succumb to its greatest threat? Yes, it’s that time
When I started tinkering around with computers, I considered the motherboard a means to an end. It was simply the board on which the puzzle pieces would fit. As long as the CPU socket was the right type for the processor I had, it didn’t matter what motherboard I used,

The year is 1959. The world is heavily indulging in rock and roll music, fashion is a big deal, and the looming threat of war is seemingly even bigger! In the midst of it is Mr Winston Green, a newly recruited employee of the delivery company “We Deliver”. Behind his
Not many people know this, but I might be a little obsessed with the imported car scene and Japanese car culture. I love watching drifting and have always appreciated the talent it takes to take a perfect corner; thus, as I grew up as a gamer, I always tended to
I have a confession. I’ve never played the classic game Frogger until now…or at least in some form. Frog Legs, by Elliott Dahle, is like a twisted fever dream of Frogger, leaping through the 2D world into the third dimension. It was up to my froggy hero to go where
The Drifter is a gritty, narrative-driven point-and-click adventure that plunges you into a suspenseful tale of murder, mystery and memory loss. Developed by Powerhoof, a talented two-man indie studio based in Melbourne, this game captures the essence of classic thrillers with a modern twist. MKAU Gaming had the chance to
The directing style of Wes Anderson is best described as postmodern on account of his nostalgic attention to detail, his subversion of mainstream conventions of narrative, his references to different genres in the same film, and his love for eccentric characters with complex sexual identities. It may not be everyone’s
The Mission: Impossible films have been an iconic film franchise since the original in 1996. Even if the stories weren’t always the best, they always delivered high-octane action scenes and intense espionage, with leading star Tom Cruise performing most of his own stunts.

This is not the Lands Between as you once knew them. What rises now is a twisted echo—familiar, yet different. Elden Ring: Nightreign, published once more by Bandai Namco and developed by FromSoftware—those same Tarnished hands that, not long ago, spoke of no sequel, no continuation. No more journeys beyond
In 2011, Stunt Flyer: Hero of the Skies was released exclusively to Nintendo Wii, where players could take to the skies in a kid-friendly, arcade-like flight simulation game. The game even came packaged with its own peripheral, which was designed to look like a plane steering wheel with a slot
