In today's episode, I cover two games with voxel graphics: the incredibly ambitious and unique detective sim Shadows of Doubt, as well as dungeon crawler Netherguild!

Welcome to a new episode of the Indie Corner. Once again, the weather here in the UK has been… weird! Lots of sunshine, but two degrees Celsius in late April. I know I’ll miss cooler weather in summer, so I will not complain. Anyhow, I have two reviews to share today. There will be no […]

Indie Corner Episode 33: Chickens In Space

In today's episode, I discuss Scorchlands and Relic Space, two ambitious and equally impressive Early Access titles in their own right.

Welcome to a new episode of the Indie Corner! I am proud to say that I’m finally pushing through the ‘mental energy’ block. Adjusting to full-time work again after two years out was a greater struggle than I expected. Fortunately, I’m through the teething issues, so I should to be able to return to weekly […]

The weather here in lovely Britain is as bonkers as always, huh? We had beautiful sunshine and warm weather all week, and then the rain gods go: ‘That’s enough summer for you, Britain!’. We’ve had a few thunderstorms. Welcome to a new episode of The Indie Corner, the show where my readers get to listen […]

Gradually making through my review backlog! Its been a busy few weeks for me, but I review two games today: the recent full release of Ancient Cities, as well as the excellent new game Dredge!

One of my favourite things about Easter is the discounted chocolate that goes on sale after Easter weekend. Welcome back to a new episode of the Indie Corner, where I talk about my time with indie games. Episode 30 was another milestone, and I was happy to finally make progress on my reviews. Due to […]

A Look into the Future: Reviewing Three Originals!

With Octopath Traveller II already released to the wild, and the upcoming The Lamplighters League and Wargroove 2 scheduled for 2023 release, I wanted to write something up on their previous titles: Octopath Traveller, Wargroove and Battletech respectively!

I hope everyone is keeping well during these uncertain times! Things are as busy as always here in the Scar den. Several promising games launched recently, such as Raidborn, Netherguild, Mortal Sin, and Tchia. I have reviews for all four of these in the works — the work never ceases over here!

We’re now at Episode 30 of my Indie Corner series! I remember starting this series in 2021 — when I struggled to find a formula that worked for me. There are just so many games out there! Every day, I find something new. As someone who plays many different games, I love what I do. […]

While I'm plugging away on my new projects, this is a new series solely for retro games! First up, I cover a 2003 RTS known as Impossible Creatures!

It is late March, and the weather is weird once again here in the jolly UK. One moment it is warm, and the next, it is raining. While I’m working on Episode 30 of the Indie Corner series, I received a lovely message from a friend on Discord, who wanted to read my views on […]

Indie Corner Episode 29: We Have Lift-Off!

In my latest episode of the Indie Corner, I cover two high-profile games: Chained Echoes, as well as the long awaited Kerbal Space Program 2.

We’re approaching the middle of March, and the Steam Spring Sale should be live by the time this article is published. That’s going to be great for my bank account! I hope everyone is keeping well. We’ve had a strange cold snap here in the UK lately. We even had snow, which was interesting. I’m […]

Indie Corner Episode 28: Western Space

Awful title aside, it feels great to return to my Indie Corner series! Today's episode features the excellent Shadows Over Loathing, as well as an ambitious, indie grand strategy title called The Pegasus Expedition.

It’s been a while since my last Indie Corner episode, so I would like to update you all on my plans for the coming months. I prefer being as transparent as possible, after all! So, you have probably noticed that my activity has slowed recently. That’s because I’m in the middle of my new job! […]
