You may have missed this week’s big game release, its a new entry from a little known developer called Mojang and is a spin-off of their first, unknown project Minecraft. I mean, of course, you’ve heard of both of those. Anyway, I first saw a trailer for this a couple of months back and showed […]

Duck Souls+
Things aren’t quite what you expect them to be with Duck Souls+ If you’re judging by its title, you probably expect roguelike mechanics, clumsy control mechanics, a lot of atmosphere and punishing enemies at every turn. If you take a look at screenshots then maybe you’re thinking a cute little one screen puzzle platformer. That […]
Curious Expedition
You can’t move for retro looking Roguelikes these days. It often feels like almost every other game carries with it the mechanics of earning abilities as you progress but losing equipment and progress, having to start your playthrough essentially from scratch, but with the idea that each time you start over the game is a […]
bitparade: Senran Kagura: Estival Verus (PlayStation 4)
This is the second time I’ve covered a Senran Kagura game, having reviewed 2014’s Nintendo DS title Senran Kagura Burst. Back then I made a note that there was an element of fun to the side scrolling beat-em up, even if it was incredibly repetitive and rather embarrassing to play. Those values still apply 2 […]
bitparade: Republique (bitparade)
Back in the early 2000’s certainly after the release of Konami’s Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty and Ubisofts Splinter Cell, it felt like any third person action game had to include a section of the game that required you to be stealthy. These were often the weakest aspects of those games as it […]
bitparade: Sebastien Loeb Rally Evo (PlayStation 4)
I’ve not paid attention to the world of Rally driving for a fair old while, actually not since Richard Burns sadly passed away have I actually followed it, thats probably more to do with its television rights issues than anything else. Still, the class has always made for excellent videogames of varying approaches, from the […]
bitparade: LEGO Marvel Avengers (PlayStation 4)
Since 2005 we have seen the release of 21 LEGO themed video games from Travellers Tales, ranging from the original LEGO Star Wars through a variety of popular licenses including Harry Potter and Batman. We’ve already had one Marvel themed game from the studio, but that was its own set adventure, this time out the […]
bitparade: MXGP 2 (PlayStation 4)
Funny story, I don’t think I was supposed to be reviewing MXGP2, our promotional copy arrived at my address but had Ben’s name on it. Regardless, I’m the resident racing game fan so it made more sense for me to keep hold of it rather than forward it on to our resident Beat-em up player. […]
bitparade: Grand Kingdom (PlayStation 4)
A few weeks back I joined in on the beta for Grand Kingdom, a turn-based online JRPG, and actually quite enjoyed it so have been really looking forward to its final release. Despite being released on both the PS4 and the Vita (NISA do seem to be keeping Sony’s handheld ticking over in all territories…) […]
bitparade: Odin Sphere: Leifthrasir (PlayStation 4)
Odin Sphere was one of those games that many completely missed out on right at the end of the crossover between the PlayStation 2’s generation and the Xbox 360 coming out. Even though it was a bit of an oddity even then, its fair to argue that the gaming landscape has changed somewhat and it […]
