Wildlife Park 3 Review – MOUSE n JOYPAD

Wildlife Park 3 Review   The Wildlife Park series has always been among the black sheep of the ever growing tycoon games family. While each of the three currently released games has a great idea or two, the way they’re executed makes them less desirable than their devs would want them to be. I had my hopes high that this wouldn’t be the case with their third game, Wildlife Park 3, but alas...[Read More]

Q.U.B.E. DIRECTOR’S CUT REVIEW

Director’s cuts have always been something of a gray area when it comes to games. Some games throw these things out for free, should the devs deem the additional money unnecessary. Some, however, try to sell the games again as a revamped package. Now, I won’t be going into the politics behind these procedures. It all comes down to what’s new after the update’s installed, and that’s what interests ...[Read More]

Orc Attack: Flatulent Rebellion Review – MOUSE n JOYPAD

Orc Attack: Flatulent Rebellion Review   Do you find farting and burping funny? Because Orc Attack: Flatulent Rebellion sure does. True to the title’s suggestion, should you try to play this game, you will find yourself caught up in gasses of the nastiest kind and smells none but the orcs could withstand. Thankfully, this is all just a visual representation and nothing terrible will happen to ...[Read More]

Shiny The Firefly Review | MOUSE n JOYPAD

Shiny The Firefly Review   Over the last few years I have noticed a severe lack of games being advertised for a child’s market. Whether that is through sheer ignorance or a total disinterest due to my age, beard and love of computer game violence, I am unable to tell you. Yet upon reviewing the following game an obvious revelation entered my mind. The market is well established and thriving fo...[Read More]

BattleBlock Theater Review – MOUSE n JOYPAD

BattleBlock Theater Review   Here we are. A bit late to the party, but we got there nevertheless. Behemoth’s overachieving platformer has finally reached Steam, and has a couple of cool new tricks up its sleeve. If you’re like me, and you pretended that the game didn’t exist ’till its PC release either (we all hate spoilers), then this is new and wonderful to you, too. And I gotta say, t...[Read More]

Kick Ass 2 Review | MOUSE n JOYPAD

Kick Ass 2 Review   Games that are based on big blockbuster movies have a reputation of disappointing their audiences in a number of ways. Most of the time the original franchise rushes a development team to complete a project, often leaving the title unfinished and comprised of immersion breaking bugs. This is an attempt to exploit the current popularity and fan base surrounding a film by ...[Read More]

The Last Door Collectors Edition Review | MOUSE n JOYPAD

The Last Door Collectors Edition Review   What makes up true horror? Is it blood, monsters, quick scares? Or maybe something entirely different? Indeed, The Last Door has gallons of blood splattered throughout the storyline, but it never relies upon it to scare the player. There are finer ways to do this, and this little adventure manages to hit all the right buttons as the story progresses. One...[Read More]

Dynasty Warriors 8: Xtreme Legends Review | MOUSE n JOYPAD

Dynasty Warriors 8: Xtreme Legends Complete Edition Review   It has happened. The fabled Dynasty Warriors series has finally reached Steam and sits happily at the Top Sellers page for quite a while now. No wonder, since it has garnered a fanatic following (that may or may not include yours truly) since its reimagining back when DW3 was introduced. It has a very specific story, characters and ...[Read More]

SUPER TIME FORCE REVIEW

Super Time Force gives you a brief, paradox filled, introduction at the beginning of the game, after which the amazing sense of humour of the title makes itself known through the Tutorial. I was chuckling away through most of the game, while it doesn’t have elegant, clever or sophisticated jokes the tone of it really appealed to my immature sense of humour. Even the character names have been made ...[Read More]

The Walking Dead: In Harm’s Way Review | MOUSE n JOYPAD

The Walking Dead: In Harm’s Way Review  Season 2, Episode 3   We have arrived at the mid point in season 2 of The Walking Dead, with ‘In Harm’s Way’. This episode is possibly on of the shortest in the series so far, running at around 90 minutes in total. I found it a small breath of fresh air, and a welcome addition considering the amount of times you get pushed and pulled through the ...[Read More]

NUTJITSU REVIEW

Nutjitsu puts you in the furry shoes of a ninja squirrel, your goal throughout the game is to gather acorns and avoid guards to score points. In practice this is more like a fan made version of Pacman, only without the personality. At the start of each mission you will be tasked with either gathering a specific colour of acorn, a certain amount of them or to spend a predetermined amount of time in...[Read More]

MEN OF WAR: ASSAULT SQUAD 2 REVIEW

Let’s get one thing straight right at the beginning. Assault Squad 2 is NOT Men Of War 2 and you should not expect it to be. The developers have made it clear that this game does more of the same, with some additions and improvements added to the formula. That being said, it’s easy to see why this type of gameplay was deemed worthy of an update. As is the tradition of the franchise, Assault Squad ...[Read More]
