International Snooker Review | MOUSE n JOYPAD
International Snooker Review    Snooker can often to be referred to as the game of kings amongst the massive following it current holds. Whilst it boasts 14 major ranking tournaments and many more unranked across the face of the globe it is quite obvious to see its popularity grow from its origin, devised by the British themselves. Yet Snooker is very much a marmite sport, you either love i...[Read More]
Space Run Review – MOUSE n JOYPAD
Space Run Review   Being a game reviewer, there is but a few titles I return to every once in a while. Due to the fact that an average day has only 24 hours, I suffer from a severe lack of time to play as much as I’d like to. Thus, I have to be very selective about what I play and when. Needless to say, only rare titles make me want to play them again after completion. I’m happy to announce ...[Read More]
MURDERED SOUL SUSPECT REVIEW
Murdered Soul Suspect was recently released by Square Enix and was developed by Airtight Games. The game is something of a murder mystery, one to rival Sherlock Holmes or Inspector Morse maybe. One thing you have to say about this game is that it really dares to be different in a world of automated yearly releases. You play as criminal turned detective ‘Ronon O’ Connor’ who is on the hunt for a ki...[Read More]
GearCity Preview | MOUSE n JOYPAD
GearCity Preview  While we, gamers, have access to a vast amount of ‘tycoon’ games available, there aren’t many that would simulate the ownership of a proper car company. In the last couple of months, several upcoming titles that deal with the given subject caught my attention. One of them – GearCity. GearCity is the first car-tycoon game to be released on Steam and as such will prob...[Read More]
Nascar 2014 Review – MOUSE n JOYPAD
Nascar 2014 Review  Nascar 2014 is a pretty standard racing game. In the single player career mode you will create a driver and pick the manufacturer of your car. I found no real difference between the manufacturers so there was no real incentive to play as one make over another. The season is made up of the normal races you would expect to see and it features tracks from the Nascar circuit. I...[Read More]

You can read the full preview here. On Steam Jedrzej describes Battle Fleet 2 as, †the radically improved sequel to the original and has kept the “Worms†/ “Scorched Ea...[Read More]
Pandora First Contact Review – MOUSE n JOYPAD
Pandora First Contact Review   The term 4x strategy is an interesting one. The phrase was first created back in 1993 but the genre has been around since the seventies featured sporadically amongst board games. As well as its complex game play, games using 4x usually include others ways to win then military. Whilst these games are directed at niche audience the current market seems to have gro...[Read More]
Ampu-tea Review – MOUSE n JOYPAD
Ampu-tea Review   Strangely enough, ever since Surgeon Simulator was introduced to the market, there hadn’t been an ungodly amount of clones released wishing to cash in on its ideas. What it did do, however, was to inspire a young indie developer to create a similar game. And yes, the term is taken lightly. Ampu-tea’s aspirations aren’t hidden at all. Quite the contrary, actually, since ...[Read More]
Brutal Doom – Mod Spotlight | MOUSE n JOYPAD
Brutal Doom – Mod Spotlight   Doom. Oh you silly rascal. If you’re like me and played the game back when it was still somewhat popular, you remember it being a blood-soaked kill-fest with a definitive no-bull*hit altitude. Now, if you try to play it today, it’s a clunky, old-school, repetitive grandfather of a game that cannot hold a ca...[Read More]

The Forest Preview | MOUSE n JOYPAD
The Forest Preview   What constitutes a good horror game? It’s not monsters, nor is the game’s setting. The psychological side of things? God, no. It’s the combination of every single element of the experience, including the boogeymen, the location and everything else you might have thought of. Now, the main gripe most players have with horror games is that they’re usually very linear...[Read More]
