LEGO Horizon Adventures delivers a pleasant and not-so-serious rendition of Horizon Zero Dawn that is both adorable and fun to play. However, its overly simplified and lighthearted gameplay loop becomes too monotonous and one dimensional after long periods of play.

Its unique gameplay mechanics, combined with thoughtful story elements and high-quality presentation, make it a standout title in the strategy genre.

Will (FncWill) Hogeweide November 12, 2024Vendetta Forever creates its own path while channelling the core of Superhot VR and offers a stylish, fast-paced action experience. The slow-mo action keeps the gameplay interesting, and the imaginative level design presents many unforgettable events. The lack of narrative continuity and the sometimes demanding difficulty, however, can sap some...
Paul Farrelly November 12, 2024Just like the similar game Never Alone (Kisima Ingitchuna) did with the Iñupiat group of Alaska Native peoples, I believe Two Falls (Nishu Takuatshina) is a narrative masterpiece that combines rich storytelling with immersive gameplay to deliver a profoundly moving experience that teaches everyone more about the Innu background. Its...
Will (FncWill) Hogeweide November 11, 2024From quality-of-life improvements to entirely new gameplay experiences, mods breathe fresh life into Red Dead Redemption, extending its replayability far beyond the base game. Combined with faster loading times and improved stability, the PC version stands out as the best way to explore John Marston's epic journey through the frontier.
Will (FncWill) Hogeweide November 10, 2024Metro Awakening VR on the Meta Quest 3 provides a powerful, atmospheric trip that brings the Metro series into VR with amazing success. Its gritty settings, improvised homemade weapons, and high-stakes survival gameplay make for a very enjoyable experience overall. I was completely enthralled and swept up with the story...
Paul Farrelly November 9, 2024For puzzle lovers and Portal enthusiasts, Beta MAX offers an engaging experience that challenges players to not just think with portals but to manipulate the very fabric of time and space itself.

Will (FncWill) Hogeweide November 6, 2024Romance of the Three Kingdoms 8 Remake is undeniably a labor of love, rich with features that make the story of ancient China’s political turbulence feel personal and dynamic. For those who adore the era’s history and don’t mind a slightly theatrical spin, the game’s "infinite drama" will be an...
Will (FncWill) Hogeweide November 6, 2024The Meta Quest 3 version of Hitman 3 VR: Reloaded is more annoying than entertaining. This VR port is a huge disappointment due to its numerous technical problems, awkward controls, and poor graphics. For devoted fans, this is less of an improvement and more of an insult. It's difficult to...
Paul Farrelly November 6, 2024With its evocative opening and its idea of an unflinching heroine overcoming horrifying obstacles, "Sofie: The Echoes" has promise. However, it is almost impossible to appreciate due to the overwhelming number of bugs, bad design decisions, and an unpolished experience. Players are unable to get past the game's opening sequence...
Paul Farrelly November 2, 2024I’m a bit disappointed with the PlayStation 5 port of a beloved, overwhelmingly positive title on Steam. Phasmophobia not only contains some of the worst user navigation interfaces I’ve seen in a long time, but also a gameplay loop that isn’t well explained for newcomers to enjoy. Deep down inside,...
