Alekon: A Picture Perfect Experience – PC Review
It feels like only yesterday that I finished playing the rather excellent photography game Beasts of Maravilla Island. After completing it I went on a bit of a photography game binge, looking for everything and anything photography related. It used to be one of my biggest passions when I was growing up. But back then…

StoryArcana: Magical In Every Way – Demo Preview
I was a big fan of the Harry Potter series growing up. While admittedly I didn’t care much for the adventures of Harry and co, I was completely mesmerised by the world. I guess being a child growing up in a cold, destitute British city, the idea of being whisked away to a magical school…

Wartales: Experience The Journey Of A Lifetime – Demo Preview
Wartales is a prime example of why demos are fantastic. When I first saw Wartales during the 2021 PC Gaming Show, I was blown away by its visuals, but not all that convinced on its gameplay. It wasn’t that there was anything inherently wrong about it, it just didn’t seem like it was for me.…

Rogue Spirit: Innovation & A Lot Of Spirit – Demo Preview
I’ve been excited for Rogue Spirit ever since we covered it way back when. On paper, it sounded like an incredibly innovative and exciting roguelike. But until now I never got the chance to try it. Now that the Steam Next Fest has rolled around I finally got an opportunity to give it a shot.…

Wolfstride: Stylish & Substantial – Demo Preview
I’m always on the lookout for a good mech-based fighting game. Perfecting the lumbering brilliance of a mech with the unbelievably stylish design of the 80s has proven difficult for many developers. But for OTA IMON Studios it seems to be no problem. The way Wolfstride impresses with suave confidence is awe-inspiring. This might just…

Nimoyd: Endless Possibilities – Demo Preview
When Steam Next Fest started there were particular games that I wanted to try. Titles such as Sable, Bear & Breakfast and Rogue Spirit had already caught my attention before the festival had even begun. But despite being appealed by its eye-catching thumbnail, with Nimoyd, I was practically going in blind. But when I say…

It astounds with its unique world and characters while maintaining a level of unabashedly extraordinary gameplay. Misc. A Tiny Tale is by far one of the greatest smile-inducing titles I’ve ever…
