Global Outbreak: Doomsday Edition Review | MOUSE n JOYPAD
 In the last couple of years, Steam has been hosting a number of games of dubious quality. Sadly, a fair share of such „quality“ titles have been the efforts to port mobile games to PC. Even some of the big development houses messed this up (Deus Ex: The Fall immediately springs to mind), so it’s obvious that it’s not a simply copy/paste tas...[Read More]
Meridian New World Review
 A huge percentage of games we play are produced by rather large development teams and when you get onto a AAA title the cost of making a game can reach a staggering sum. A team of twenty developers can spend two years making a mediocre game that we as critics and gamers the world over can criticise and tear apart, the thing is that we are right to do so. Effort counts for a lot but...[Read More]
Tickles Top Ten Easter Eggs
Easter eggs are great aren’t they? With their lovely chocolate goodness… no not that kind of Easter egg. I am of course talking about Easter eggs that are found in games, excellent secret messages, hidden areas, complete silliness and in some cases outright insults to other games. Pretty much every game will have some kind of Easter Egg these days and I am here to list ten of my favourites. It...[Read More]
Risen 3: Titan Lords Review – MOUSE n JOYPAD
Risen 3: Titan Lords Review   Risen 3 gives you the opportunity to turn into a parrot. As far as I’m concerned, that’s a game-selling feature right there, but wrapping the review up without writing about anything else would probably get me fired, so here we go!Back in 2009, via Risen, Piranha Bytes reiterated their RPG formula into a more user-friendly experience. It was a very Gothic-like g...[Read More]
The Nameless Mod – Mod Spotlight | MOUSE n JOYPAD
The Nameless Mod – Mod Spotlight  Deus Ex is a marvel of a game, even after all this time. And even though Human Revolution suits me a tad bit better in terms of gameplay, I will definitely not ignore the fact that it was its predecessor that revolutionized video games back in its day. What I will ignore, however, is Invisible War, just so we get that out of the picture. It&ac...[Read More]
Planet Explorers Preview – MOUSE n JOYPAD
Planet Explorers Preview   Fancy a voxel-based open world game like Minecraft, but set in an extraterrestrial sci-fi setting, with massive plains, beautiful canyons, rivers, lakes and mountains, where you could build and manage your own colony occupied by settlers defending, working on and farming your land, design and build your own dream car or aircraft, and fight scary gigantic alien life fo...[Read More]
Cloud Chamber Review | MOUSE n JOYPAD
Cloud Chamber Review   Every once in a while, we gamers witness a title that pushes the limits of what can be defined as a game. Mostly, the discussion about how much these projects are worth boils down to a single argument – it’s not interactive enough. And while games as a medium are much more open than anything else currently on offer, there always has to be a healthy amount of player ...[Read More]

Dying Light Gamescom Trailer | MOUSE n JOYPAD
Dying Light Gamescom Trailer   In case you’ve forgotten all about Dying Light, its latest Gamescom trailer is here to make you drool all over again. Disregarding the awesome weaponry and even awesomer (shut up) kills, the game is seemingly shaping up to be quite an experience. Without further ado, here’s the trailer in case you haven’t gotten the chance to be amazed just yet.  Â
Z Steel Soldiers Review | MOUSE n JOYPAD
Z Steel Soldiers Review   Z Steel Soldiers is a RTS developed by Bitmap Brothers which was originally released back in 2001 and has recently become available through Steam. It is important to note that the game is hitting 13 years old so it will be pretty dated by today’s standards. Z: Steel Soldiers is the sequel to the excellent (but older still) Z released back in 1996 which is also availab...[Read More]
Crawl Preview – MOUSE n JOYPAD
Crawl Preview   Recently, a fair number of Early Access games tell the audience that they have a unique and imaginative game mechanic or feature that’s different from anything you’ll see in the mainstream market. They’ll then sell a half finished product, sometimes with a list of all the missing features that may or may not make it into the final release. Crawl is definitely not in this...[Read More]
