A dark night, a random phone call, and trousers that allow you to jump like a genetically enhanced grasshopper with its feet on fire – Gunpoint certainly starts with a bang. It follows up with a few more bangs and suddenly you are being hired for all sorts of stealth/jumping/trenchcoat tomfoolery, most of which involves falling out of windows and pestering guards with electrified light switches. Oh, and it’s a bit good.
Jane Wilde, developed by LevelBit, is a free-to-play side scrolling shooter recently released for Android phones. The main aim of the game is to survive each mini section whilst completing goals and collecting money to upgrade your arsenal of weapons.
How many times have you wished you could go back and change something in your life? Taken a different path or simply said something differently? No matter how hard one tries, life will always be full of some sort of regret. Too many variables make it impossible to get things right every time. Remember Me is a game entirely about how small changes can make the world of difference, set in a futuristic vision of Paris where the manipulation of memories are possible, both for good and nefarious reasons.
The Wild West, boy howdy I would’ve only lasted a few days there before falling off my horse or falling victim to a band of outlaws. Fortunately, I don’t need to invent a time-machine in order to experience this key time in American history, I can just boot up Call of Juarez: Gunslinger and have the time of my life.
I love the lesser lights of the RPG genre as much as I enjoy the blockbuster titles. I adored Skyrim, while I also found plenty of joy in Kingdoms of Amalur. So when I heard about Mars: War Logs, a title from the people behind that Game of Thrones game I was without a doubt keen to see what it was all about. I’ve already given some thoughts on the first chapter, but hit the break and you can read the Verdict.
This isn’t Minecraft or Terraria, but it follows in a similar vein with no real hints or tips and an entire sense of ‘how the hell do I survive in this game?’. I’m really enjoying this game, and while I might not have fallen in love with it like I have with other indie games over the past few years, I do seem to keep going back for just one more go.
Shhh. Forgive me for whispering, but I’m currently hiding in a bush. Welcome to Monaco, a challenging comedy concerning classic crime capers . Whether bank or glamorous mansion, nowhere is safe from the nimble fingers of the locksmith or his friends as you’re tasked with purloining a number of precariously protected props across this prestigious principality.
The legacy of the StarCraft games has grown and grown over the years, largely thanks to the awesome e-sports competitions it helped start in South Korea. With Wings of Liberty the game was brought into the modern age with a singleplayer campaign solely focused on the Terrans. With Heart of the Swarm, the Zerg are back.
The question that I am left wondering after completing The Knife of Dunwall, the first story based DLC for Dishonored is as follows. Is it worth you spending £7.99 to go back to the city of Dunwall for three missions. I’ll try my best to answer that question in this Verdict. Don’t even think about reading this unless you have finished Dishonored.
It is Masters weekend in Augusta and I am well and truly in the mood for golf. To celebrate, I’ve been trying to get to grips with the latest Tiger Woods title which features a revamped career mode and the chance to wind back the clock and play against some legends of the game. Step through the jump to check out my Verdict.
