‘Deadbolt’ Review (Nintendo Switch)

by Britt Roberts

Playing like Gunpoint with the twitch-reflex sensibilities of Hotline Miami, the only thing that I can imagine putting people off this very addictive title is the difficulty curve… which is vertical. Deadbolt puts you in the shoes of the Grim Reaper, a Grim Reaper who knows how to handle a gun and how to throw […]

‘Car Quest’ Review (Nintendo Switch)

by Britt Roberts

A new budget title available on Nintendo Switch, Car Quest is a very basic vehicle-based 3D adventure with a very simple premise stretched to its limits. However, it did have an oddly addictive quality that I would prescribe for hangovers and children. Car Quest is set in a world called Blocktaria, a world literally made-up of […]
