Interview: Richard Ewell, creator of Indie Comic ‘Nerdy Laser and The Fighting Preceptors’

‘Nobodies’ Review (PC/Steam)

by Britt Roberts

An Argentinian title which sets you in the blood-flecked shoes of the ‘cleaner’ for a shady government organisation, Nobodies takes a more casual approach, reminiscent of hidden object games more than graphic adventures but comes out a strong and enjoyable title with an interesting premise that gives it more character than similar games. Presented through […]

‘Glorantha: The Gods War’ Board Game Review

by Matthew Smail

When I think about the first few board games I played in the 80’s and early 90’s, it was unthinkable to me that the games I’d be playing in my thirties would cost hundreds and hundreds of pounds, and feature miniatures so large that the word “miniature” becomes highly questionable. And yet, with the likes […]

‘AeternoBlade 2’ Review (Nintendo Switch)

by Britt Roberts

A 2.5D hack and slash game with some really nice ideas, AeternoBlade 2 starts off relatively strong, if scrappy and flawed. Fast-forward a few hours, however and the bugs, odd design choices and glitches become harder to ignore, eventually reaching a point rendering the game unplayable. Carrying on seemingly straight after the first game in […]
