Mini Review Deadlink (PS5) - Breakneck Cyberpunk Shooter Is an Absolute Blast
Hell in a shell
If you're a fan of fast and furious, DOOM-esque shooting on PS5, Deadlink earns itself an easy recommendation. This is a cyberpunk-themed blast-'em-up with a roguelite structure, where the goal is to run through preset levels that dish out randomised rewards upon completion. It's frantic, often sweat-inducing fun, held together by...
Mini Review Bonkies (PS4) - Co-Op Construction Game Is Simple But Satisfying
Planets and the apes
Think you've played every local co-op game on PlayStation 4? Well, have you built structures in low gravity as an ape with a robotic arm?

Indebted
Regalia: Of Men and Monarchs - Royal Edition is a strategy role-playing game that wears its inspirations on its sleeve. Borrowing from the likes of Persona and Disgaea, as well as your typical BioWare title, it's a release made up of many parts, but it all comes together quite nicely. There's a heart to Regalia that makes it hard to...
Resurrection of evil
Last year's fantastic DOOM reboot nailed the energy and relentless forward motion of id Software's industry defining FPS, stripping out any sort of meaningful narrative in favour of a lighting-fast funhouse ride. Yet where DOOM 2016 gave old fashioned mayhem a shiny new coat of paint, Transhuman Design’s BUTCHER keeps the...
