It’s been a good year for fans of 3D platformers, all things considered. It’s like waiting for a bus – you get criminally underappreciated by the gaming industry for years and then three turn up at once. I personally think…
Flame in the Flood Review – Nintendo Switch
I can’t claim to have an enormous amount of experience with the survival genre – about the best I can muster is “I was in the same room as somebody playing Don’t Starve once.” So let it be an even…

Disgaea 5 Complete Review
The Disgaea series is one which divides opinion; you’re bound to either love it or hate it. A cutesy mix of Japanese wackiness and tactical battling makes it a very distinct flavour of game. My first foray into Nippon-ichi’s flagship…
