Bite Sized Reviews: Let's School

And we are back to school! Not really, thank god for that. However, Let's School by Pathea Games might just get you in the mood to play a cosy management sim!

I’ve loved management games since I was young. The very first ones I played were the Bullfrog sims, like Theme Park and Theme Hospital. With such a diverse pool of games in this genre, I am spoiled for choice. The last few weeks have been a wild ride, haven’t they? I’m just about on track […]

Bite Sized Reviews: Thyria

Thyria offers more customization and freedom to experiment with its mechanics than most dungeon crawlers, although I found it confusing at times. Still, this is a gorgeous strategy game with a fantastic setting!

I’ll be honest. When I sat down to write up my thoughts on this game, I was stumped on what to talk about. That doesn’t happen often for me. There are times when I get stuck on a video game, and then I struggle with converting my thoughts into words. For example, if I’m terrible […]

Zoria Age of Shattering Preview

Zoria Age of Shattering launched recently, and I got the chance to play it early. While it's a little rough around the edges, its a meaty RPG with enough heart to match its ambition!

I’ve been looking forward to Zoria Age of Shattering. The tactical RPG genre has long been one of my favourite genres, and 2023’s unparalleled success in Baldur’s Gate 3 has inspired a whole new generation. If you haven’t played Larian’s most recent masterpiece, give it a go sometime. I’m not here to gush about Baldur’s […]

Bite Sized Reviews: Dungeons 4

I've been meaning to do this one for a while! Dungeons 4 launched late last year, and is the most recent in the Dungeons series. After a six year gap, does it live up to expectations? Find out!

While I play a ton of different games these days, it’s easy to get me back to the old days. Age of Empires, Dungeon Keeper, Fable, Black and White, Empire Earth, and Impossible Creatures were the games of my childhood. Dungeon Keeper’s awesome base management as an evil overlord always impressed me with its creativity. […]

Bite Sized Previews: Myth of Empires

MMO’s. Once the genre to beat, very few MMOs find solid success these days. This is largely due to the ‘Big Fish in a Small Pond’ philosophy. With World of Warcraft, Runescape, Elder Scrolls Online, and Final Fantasy 14 leading the pack, there’s a finite resource of people willing to invest time and money into […]

Bite Sized Reviews: Roots of Yggdrasil

A new week dawns, and that means more reviews! Roots of Yggdrasil is an impressive citybuilder/roguelike hybrid in Early Access, but its addictive gameplay and excellent pricetag offers a lot!

Another review, oh yes! I hope everyone is having a pleasant month so far. February has been solid overall. I’ve been working on more reviews as well as my fantasy novel. To long-term readers of my reviews, you will probably know I enjoy Early Access. I’m not sure why I like them so much, but […]

Bite Sized Reviews: Age of Darkness Final Stand

A new review? Oh yes. Age of Darkness: Final Stand is an ambitious survival RTS, boasting a chunky campaign to boot. Here are my impressions!

They Are Billions was one game I never got good at. It did not matter what settings I played it in, or how I played, but every time I got overwhelmed by massive zombie hordes. It’s a solid game, but I suck at playing it! Almost as if Playside Studios heard my cry, they worked […]

Bite Sized Reviews: Lonestar Early Impressions

The first of many reviews to come! The past week has been big for gaming habits. Today I feature the space Western roguelike Lonestar, boasting great music and promising deckbuilding mechanics.

We have some busy weeks ahead! Before I delve into today’s review, a couple of little things first. I hope everyone’s keeping well. We’re approaching the end of January and the past week has resulted in a deluge of new opportunities. Huge thanks to all the great developers granting access to creators like me! February […]

GOTY 2023: My Top 5 Games

It's time for the grand finale! Six episodes later, and the big one is upon us: my Top 5 games of 2023!

Oh, boy. This year has flown by, and it’s probably been the most difficult year I’ve had in a long time. I’m not the spring chicken I used to be, but it’s been tough, all the same. What a year, huh? While I cannot think of many personal positives for me in 2023, I’ve been […]

Bite Sized Reviews: Stronghold Definitive Edition

I have a few more reviews up my sleeve! Today I cover the solid remaster of a nostalgic series: Stronghold Definitive Edition.

Stronghold. Now that’s a nostalgia drug, isn’t it? We’re closing in on the end of 2023. What a year, huh? This week will feature my final GOTY episode, including my top five games of the year. While that happens, I still have time for a few more Bite-Sized Review episodes. I’ll be slowing down over […]
