With so many titles available to play on the iPhone, there’s always a chance there are games you simply just missed out on. Mega addictive hits the likes of “Angry Birds” and “Candy Crush” don’t make it any easier to try new games either. Check out this list to find out what thumb-crunchers passed you…
In grand FromSoftware tradition, Elden Ring Nightreign begins with a fight you’re supposed to lose. As is also tradition, it’s perfectly possible to gut it out and beat him anyway if you’re enough of a toxic Souls tryhard cool guy. Nightreign’s tutorial fight even furnishes you with a one-of-a-kind relic for your troubles. It’s nothing…
Here’s a question. What’s the most important game in your life you don’t think anybody else would mention as having a significant influence on theirs? To be clear, I don’t mean the most obscure game you’ve ever played, although there’s a chance it might be that. I’m referring to the most unusual game you’ve crossed…
Our favourite Switch 1 eShop games released in May. The summer is here, the Switch 2 is almost here, and that means it’s eShop Selects time for May. This is our very last Switch 1 edition of our monthly feature — but don’t worry, things aren’t changing with the release of a new console. You’ll…
Elden Ring Nightreign is hard in a way that no FromSoftware game over the last decade has been. Where the pacing of Dark Souls and Elden Ring normally reward patience, Nightreign demands a speedrunner’s frenzy. Where the intricate dungeons of those games encourage memorization, so that you can dart in to grab a killer weapon…
Switch too. This is it: Switch 2 launches this month! Switch 1 will live on, of course (and we’re still excited to play Rhythm Heaven Groove and Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream next year), but all eyes are on Nintendo’s new console, with its brand new games and its updates to existing classics. Yes, yes,…
Project Warlock was a thoroughly entertaining FPS throwback which caught the bloody wave of the boomer shooter revival right at its height in 2018. As such, I was excited by the prospect of a sequel, and one was duly revealed at the PC Gaming Show in 2021. Then, years passed. My eyesight deteriorated, flecks of…
//Body It’s the end of the line for preposterously successful cleaning sim PowerWash Simulator. The last of its free updates has emerged squeaky clean from developer FuturLab’s power shower, representing station terminus for PowerWash Simulator as a game still in active development. Through these updates, officially known as The Muckingham Files, developer FuturLab has been…
Don’t think twice, it’s all right. It’s time to say goodbye. Well, not really. The massively popular Switch will live on in a way few other Nintendo consoles have done thanks to backwards compatibility, a host of free upgrades to existing games, and a Switch 2 form factor that keeps everything about the previous console….
There were a bunch of excellent-looking puzzle games revealed at this week’s Thinky Direct, including a new mystery game from one of the designers of the Case of the Golden Idol, and a time-loop based “Metroidbrainia” (a portmanteau that caused me physical pain) which swaps out tool-gathering for puzzle-solving. The game that really stood out…
