Oceanhorn: Monster of Uncharted Seas Review | MOUSE n JOYPAD

Oceanhorn: Monster of Uncharted Seas Review  Oceanhorn: Monster of Uncharted Seas is a revamped version of original iPad and iPhone release. After gaining tons of positive reviews the developers Cornfox & Bros. decided to take the game to the next level by releasing it on PC. When given the opportunity to play Oceanhorn I was expecting a bland Zelda clone that simply rehashes now-ancient idea...[Read More]

Homeworld Remastered Collection Review | MOUSE n JOYPAD

Homeworld Remastered Collection Review   There are a lot of games that I fondly remember from my childhood, from the brutality of Mortal Kombat to the stealthy antics and engrossing (if somewhat confusing) plot of Metal Gear Solid, there are very few that I hold in such high esteem as the first true RTS that I ever played. Homeworld was released back in 1999 and while I was absolutely terrible a...[Read More]

The Dark Stone from Mebara Review | MOUSE n JOYPAD

The Dark Stone from Mebara Review   Roleplaying games have been a part of my life ever since I started gaming. Titles such as Final Fantasy or Dragon Quest really turned my head around so as to appreciate the art style, unique gameplay, character development, and creative storytelling. I was intrigued upon receiving a copy of The Dark Stone from Mebara because it mixes detective elements with RP...[Read More]

The Deer God Review | MOUSE n JOYPAD

The Deer God Review   You’re a hunter. Armed with a rifle, you and your buddy are waiting for a chance to get a drop on a deer or two. Just because. Then, just as you manage to get a deer in your sights, a predatory animal tears you a new one. Instead of falling into the dark abyss that is the afterlife, a deer deity revives you under one condition – that you gain a new appreciation for the ...[Read More]

Resident Evil Revelations 2 – Episode 2 Review | MOUSE n JOYPAD

Resident Evil Revelations 2 Episode 2 Review  Revelations 2 is good, that much is obvious. It takes everything that was great in the previous Resident Evil installments, mixes it up and makes you care about the whole experience. In Episode 2, our adventure with Claire, Moira, Natalia and Barry continues at a more frantic pace all the while staying true to what makes it a good RE game.   Yes,...[Read More]

ZOMBIE ARMY TRILOGY REVIEW

A bullet leaves the barrel of my Lee Enfield rifle at high velocity, twisting its way through the thick smoke filled post war air of the 1940’s. A few seconds later, it connects with an undead Nazi soldiers head with such force the helmet he is still wearing lifts into the air, ripping through muscle and bone the bullet mushrooms taking a large chunk of the skull with it as it passes through his h...[Read More]

SCREAMRIDE REVIEW

We have all been there, standing in the theme parks looking up at the wonderous snaking rails of a rollercoaster wondering if you want to queue up and have a go, but having that anticipation of vomiting while it takes that extremely tight bend, or being covered in vomit from the other occupants, is something that pops to the front of your mind. However the adrenaline rush these rides provide are w...[Read More]

Oddworld: New ‘n’ Tasty Review | MOUSE n JOYPAD

Oddworld: New ‘n’ Tasty Review   Abe is back and ready to kick some Slig and Glukkon arse all over again in Oddworld: New ’n’ Tasty. For those who don’t already know, New ’n’ Tasty is a remake of Oddworld: Abe’s Oddysee but seems to do what other remakes don’t. Instead of delivering an exact replica of the game, New ’n’ Tasty goes further by adding vastly improved graphics ...[Read More]

Bloop: Reloaded Review | MOUSE n JOYPAD

Bloop: Reloaded Review   Is there anything more beautiful in games than fluid physics? Well, okay, let’s ignore the fact that explosions exist for a while. Not many titles spring to mind when talking about the interaction with fluids they allow, except for a couple of side-scrolling endeavours such as Vessel (it’s a nice game, google it up). Bloop Reloaded works in a similar fashion – by r...[Read More]

RESIDENT EVIL REVELATIONS 2 -EPISODE 1 REVIEW

I’ve been a fan of Resident Evil ever since its fourth iteration. Now, I know most will argue that RE4 isn’t the best in the series nor is it the scariest, but it really clicked with me, and it featured just the right amount of action, horror and puzzling to captivate me fully. A couple of years later, Resident Evil 5 was out and about, with most of the people disliking it. Not me though. Disregar...[Read More]

SHADOW OF MORDOR: BRIGHT LORD DLC REVIEW

The spear thrust is aimed perfectly, it smashes through my guard and rams home into my stomach before being savagely ripped out. The Warchief bellows in victory as he throws his spear at me only for it to get knocked aside. I am a blur of motion, almost invisible to the naked eye as I smash through the mob of Uruks that had penned me in as their commander launched his attack. The last Uruk is clai...[Read More]
