Welcome to this review of Ring Of Honor: Mass Hysteria, right here on Nerdly. I’m Nathan Favel and we have the second card of the weekend from ROH. Manhattan Mayhem was quite good, so my hope is that Mass Hysteria is just as good, if not better. Okay, let’s see if this all came together […]
Written by Michael Green, Mike Johnson | Art by Andres Guinaldo | Published by Titan Comics For a quick ten points, any idea why Titan have chosen now to launch this book? No Google, please. Yep, that’s right, 2019 was the year that Harrison Ford’s Blade Runner movie was set. Seems very appropriate. Not only […]
Even though I’ve heard many good things about Jaipur over the years, the game has always eluded me. I play board games at many player counts and two player (with just my wife) is certainly one of them, but we tend not to focus on games designed for two players specifically. Jaipur is strictly a two […]

Welcome to this review of Ring Of Honor’s Manhattan Mayhem, right here on Nerdly. I’m Nathan Favel and we have six matches to cover, including a few big ones, so let’s get to them. Match #1: Dragon Lee defeated Jonathan Gresham My Opinion: 4.5 out of 5 – This was a vicious match that gave […]

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 Britt takes a look at Etherborn, a new platformer available now on all formats. A 3D gravity-based platformer, Etherborn is a taxing and yet mellow Sunday […]
Welcome to this week’s review of Impact Wrestling, right here on Nerdly. I’m Nathan Favel and we have the Mash-Up Tournament this week, which is some-thing like the Lethal Lottery of World Championship Wrestling fame.

Starring, Written and Directed by Gints Zilbalodis An dialogue-free seventy five minute animated movie entirely created by one guy from Latvia might not seem like the outline for any film to get made, let alone watch. But that is the exact description of Away and it is a fascinating piece of work. The directors story […]
Written by Simon Furman | Art by Hendry Prasetya | Published by Titan Comics The first 20 issues or so of this book were pretty fantastic.

Platformers like the Super Mario series on the NES, the Dizzy games on the C64; side-scrolling beat em-ups ike Double Dragon, Rygar and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles on the NES and later on 16-bit games like Final Fight and Golden […]
