The Alters Review – The madness of multitasking
This is going to be one of those reviews where I begin by talking about how hard I tried to like the game in question. And… yes. I did try really hard to like The Alters. On paper, it sounds good. Fantastic, even. I mean, cloning alternate versions of yourself based on the many what-if scenarios of your life? Sounds like peak science fiction to me.
The Drifter Review – A mind-bending thriller that channels the spirit of point & click greats
There are times when you finish a game and you get the sense that you’ve just played something very special. Something that will stay with you even years later. I got this feeling with point & click adventure classics like Monkey Island 1 and 2, the original Gabriel Knight and the unforgettable Beneath a Steel Sky, just to name a few – and now it’s happened with The Drifter.
Through the Nightmares Review – A satisfying precision platformer full of cool ideas
Making a successful precision platformer can’t be an easy thing – in a genre where so much depends on level design, everything needs to come together beautifully. Every challenge needs to be harsh yet fair. Every well-timed jump needs to work, and every seemingly impossible scenario requires a solution. Through the Nightmares ticks all these boxes as far as I’m concerned: its controls are tight and simple, and its mechanics are easy to learn but hard to master.
Ender Magnolia: Bloom in the Mist Review – A thoroughly satisfying follow-up
Sequels always come with certain expectations. Will it be better than the first one? Can it improve on its predecessor, iron out its rough edges, or perhaps take the formula in a new and exciting direction? You know how it is.
Cthulhu's Reach: Devil Reef Early Access Review – Lovecraft meets roguelike
Introduced as an “action roguelike co-op dungeon crawler set in a lovecraftian universe” on its very own Steam page, the game is refreshingly upfront about what it offers: it’s got retro-style pixel art, monsters and architecture inspired by Lovecraft’s iconic mythology, and relentless roguelike gameplay with all the basics you’d expect from the genre.
