Roguelike FPS Abyssus was one of the more interesting games to embed itself in my Steam library last year. Generally, I am of the belief that first-person shooting and roguelike randomisation should never meet, as it generally results in mushy combat and poorly paced levels. But Abyssus beat the odds, successfully infusing the power-curve of…
It’s time for another Commodore 64 special, as looking through our Commodore 64/128 Facebook group earlier today we’ve come across an upcoming game by Rebel Bytes in partnership with Digital Monastery called ‘Fat Tarzan’.

Sigh… Anyway, positive vibes! This week, we boshed out not one, but two Pokémon reviews for Pokopia and FireRed / LeafGreen – the 30th…
Go on, tell us. Pokémon Pokopia launched exclusively for the Switch 2 this week, and if you haven’t already heard about this new relaxing life-simulation, it’s been getting quite a lot of praise.

I’ve sunk 10 hours into this dang extraction shooter so far and the deeper I dig this hole, the more I’m into it. I’m still having a blast with PvP, especially when playing trios.
