Instead we get Wolverine facing off against a new character with some ties to Solem which all need to be explained before we […]
[NOTE: This review is of the ORIGINAL Switch release of this game, not the recently updated/patched version… Mainly because I refuse to replay this game again!] Created by Dead Drop Studios (in reality solo developer Evan Wolbach), Outbreak: Endless Nightmares is the latest game to grace modern consoles in the Outbreak series, this time mixing […]
Video game nostalgia seems to be at an all-time high right now; either that or video game studios have just run out of ideas. Whatever the reason, we’re currently in the midst of a wave of old-school early video games getting reboots, remakes or reduxes. Case in point, the recently-released high def remakes of Wonderboy: […]
Released five years ago on PC, Epistory – Typing Chronicles brings its unusual game and style of gameplay to Nintendo Switch. Reading up on Epistory before I played it, I was instantly drawn to it because it seemed like something I had never played before. Recently I have really been enjoying trying new genres and […]

A few years ago Nintendo released a little console called the Wii; a console that didn’t really appeal to “gamers” and one that seemingly was destined to the scrap heap… But then something happened. Your mum had a play and loved the motion controls, then invited your dad to play and he loved it too! […]
Reviewing video games has continued to help me play genres that I have rarely played before or not played at all. This time with Layers of Fear 2, I played a completely different type of horror game, an investigatory horror game. For those that have read my reviews for Nerdly before, you will know that […]
I’m sure there are many gamers out there who, like me, have only ever played the Tony Hawk’s games when it comes to skating games. Yes, there have been some since and there were ones before but it was the one that everyone played. And as it is yet to appear on the Nintendo Switch […]
One of the reasons I was most looking forward to playing The Mysterious Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde was because it is a genre of game I have never really played. Although I have my favourite genres I’m not the type of gamer that will just stick to a few. Platformers, racers, sports, […]
In DIGITAL SHORTS we review some of the latest video games that are only available digitally (at least in the UK), in a short-form review format. In this edition we take a look at twin-stick slasher (NOT shooter), Breakpoint. Breakpoint is a twin-stick slasher that provides all the hectic action of a bullet hell with […]
As soon as you mention futuristic racer and video games a couple of franchises come straight to mind to many players. For some it will be Wipeout, which started out on Playstation but for those Nintendo lovers like myself, their minds will go straight to F-Zero. A franchise that hasn’t had a new game in […]

Developer Cateia Games and publisher Ocean Media have made something of a career of releasing point and click strategy game after point and click strategy game on the Nintendo Switch – games like Cavemen Tales, Country Tales, Tales from Dragon Mountain and Where Angels Cry. The latter two are more traditional point and click titles, […]
It’s been almost 45 years since Space Invaders hit arcades (2018 was the official 40th Anniversary of the first game) and sincve then the series has appeared on pretty much every home computer and console since then – in various forms, from the original format to todays review, Space Invaders Forever. But why two games? […]
Around two decades ago I took the plunge and bought a Neo Geo Pocket – I couldn’t afford the Neo Geo itself so I saw the Pocket (and the Pocket Colour) as the next best thing. Of course the consoles were light years apart graphically but that didn’t stop SNK bringing some of their biggest […]
The Pang series follows the adventures of two brothers on a global quest to save the world from alien invasion and in Pang Adventures: Buster Edition, the latest franchise revival by developer and publisher Dotemu (Windjammers, Wonder Boy: The Dragon’s Trap, Streets of Rage 4) – finally released (almost 2 years after the digital version) […]
For years now I’ve been on the search for that perfect biking game… Yes, I know, its a very niche genre to enjoy and it is – currently – dominated by by the likes of the Trials games and the myriad of clones it inspired. However there have been some great, in fact ONE great […]
Now in it’s 2021 iteration, the RavensCourt/Voxler Let’s Sing franchise is now seemingly the only karaoke game left in a market that used to be completely saturated… Thankfully Let’s Sing 2021 is STILL flying the flag for a genre that, only a few years ago was flourishing. So what happened? Well I blame TikTok… I […]
It would seem that a little indie game called Raging Justice, whilst not being the mega-hit I wanted it to be (lets just say I’m a huge fan of that game!) on its release in 2018, has succeeded in at least being the catalyst for the return of the side-scrolling beat ’em-up to current gen […]
I was sooooo looking forward to the latest G.I. Joe video game. I think I was one of the few that actually enjoyed their last console outing, the movie tie-in come sequel The Rise of Cobra, and remember putting in some solid hours on both the PS3 and Wii iterations… And as a Joe fan, […]
Remember the heyday of Micro Machines? Those tiny little diecast cars that kids, at least of my generation, went crazy for… Well if you’re old enough to remember the toys, then you’re surely old enough to remember the video games! Spanning multiple consoles, including (but not limited to) the Sega Megadrive, Commodore Amiga and the […]
