    Everyone loves a good treasure hunt, whether it’s in its simplest form of your mum hiding your easter eggs around the garden, or plundering bountiful booty after battling a mighty kraken, as you retrieve Athena’s Fortune (shout out to Sea of Thieves for letting me live out my pirate-based dreams). It’s not just the thrill…

    Greak: Memories of Azur hardly even had time to gather dust on Drew’s backlog before he got it smashed off!

  • Hell Pie

    Hell Pie

    Since humans first sprang into existence, there have been many interpretations of what life could be like once we expire.

    Mario Kart 8 Deluxe

    Thanks to the Booster Course Pass, I’ve been playing a lot of Mario Kart 8 lately but Mario’s latest entry in the long-running series first came into my life during the Wii U era, the glorious time when a grand total of 24 people played some of Nintendo’s best games. Since I was busy playing…

  • Berserk Boy

    Berserk Boy

    Berserk Boy is a beautiful homage to the 2D games of yesteryear, offering lightning-paced platforming that’s an absolute blast.

  • Aleste

    Aleste

    I’ve always said that some of my earliest gaming memories typically revolve around a blue hedgehog running from left to right, chasing down an evil rotund doctor. The recollections are so ingrained in my brain that I look back on them fondly with a rose-tinted view, and accept them as absolute truth. That is until…

  • Guacamelee!: Super Turbo Championship Edition
