2/5 Review

Mr. Brocco & Co.’s message of ‘eat your veggies’ gets undermined.

Jason Momoa is a spark plug, a single redeeming element that is trying to zap it into life, but Fast X has all of the speed and energy of a school bus. 

For a game as old as Cyber Citizen Shockman, it has some novel ideas such as a world map and specific rewards for completing certain levels.

There is a good game, a compelling game even, fighting to get out of War Mongrels, but it is buried under a pile of duff controls and absurd difficulty.

City Limits is very chill, and whilst that shouldn’t be a substitute for the word ‘boring’, it isn’t very good either. With limited scope and limited gameplay, the only thing elongating it are laborious achievements.

Placid Plastic Duck Simulator is like watching a summer holiday by the pool via CCTV, as you passively accumulate achievements.

Kuroi Tsubasa is a visual novel that has a great demon-hunting concept and no intention of delivering on it.

Shukuchi Ninja isn’t anywhere near as good as the games it’s closest to - namely Party Golf and Angry Birds.

Ratyboy came from behind and bit us hard on the butt. It’s possibly the most painful 3D platformer we’ve played. Curse you, Ratyboy.

If you’ve been lured in by the cat, then you should probably know that Neko Rescue Tale has all the worst aspects of one. It gives you a false sense of security by looking cute, curling up in your lap. But once you start playing with it, the claws come out, as poor level design, collision detection, platforming and - most of all - combat all cause blood to flow.
