Review Cat Quest 3 (PS5) - Fun, Seafaring RPG Doesn't Quite Match Its Pawesome Predecessor
A whisker away
A new entry in The Gentlebros' all-ages action RPG series, Cat Quest 3 opts for a pirate-themed escapade, in which you play as a fearless seafaring feline. In search of a legendary treasure known only as the North Star, you'll explore an open map made up of ocean and islands, often aboard your trusty tub. As we've come to expect, this...
Mini Review Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn (PS5) - Yeah, It's Pretty Good
Use axe to grind
Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn is the textbook definition of a good video game. You probably won't think of it much after rolling credits, but in the moment, there's enough in its roughly 12-hour campaign for a fulfilling time. A quick hit of comfort food for the Souls-like audience, it succeeds with fun combat and movement abilities...
Review Pacific Drive (PS5) - The Car Is the Reasonably Priced Star of Deep, Dense Survival Game
Here in my car, I feel safest of all
Cars are inanimate objects, but if you drive one, you've undoubtedly formed a relationship with it. Perhaps you've named your vehicle after the way it looks; maybe you'd be more concerned if it didn't have that indiscernible rattle; it could be falling to pieces, but you've never known a more dependable...
Review Ultros (PS5) - Trippy Metroidvania Tangles with Great Ideas
Its ambition is boundless
This is already turning into a bumper year for Metroidvania fans. With the excellent Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown having kicked things off beautifully, Ultros now arrives from a smaller publisher but with no small hype of its own. With a gob-smackingly unique art style and a fungal, miasmic tone, it certainly looks like...
Mini Review Scorn (PS5) - A Brilliantly Disgusting Puzzler with Gameplay Woes
Its structural perfection is matched only by its hostility
Scorn was announced by Ebb Software way back in 2014, so we've been waiting a while. After a successful (if critically mixed) launch on Game Pass last year, the game is ready for PS5, but is that a good thing? The answer to that is mostly a "yes". Inspired by the visual style of legendary...
Review Tchia (PS5) - Unique Island Adventure Is a Joyful, Creative Playground
Totally tropical
Developer Awaceb created Tchia as a love letter to its native home of New Caledonia. Though the game itself is set on a fantastical archipelago, it draws deeply from its real-life counterpart in terms of environment and story. It feels really genuine as a snapshot of the culture; its story is heavily rooted in the territory's...
Review Cat Quest II - Simple But Satisfying RPG Fun That Shines in Co-Op
Purrty doggone good
A follow-up to 2017's simple but very effective Cat Quest, the appropriately named Cat Quest II is bigger and better. The first game's simplicity remains intact, making for another approachable action role-playing title that's fun for all ages. Journeying across the game's colourful map, picking up quests, whacking monsters, and...
