Don’t let the name fool you, this is a brand-new game out now for the Nintendo Switch. Sure, it’s a port of the 2021 version for PC, but don’t let that stop you from having a good time and getting your grease monkey on. The game’s overall premise is pretty simple, you are a budding mechanic with big dreams to create your own custom bikes. But in order to gain money and a solid customer base you start off doing…

If you haven’t figured it out yet, almost every single day is the International or National Day of something. And of course there is a National Puzzle Day which will be happening on Sunday, January 29th. Puzzles are great, and a multitude of things can be perceived as puzzles. Obviously puzzles and puzzles, but so also are Rubik’s Cubes, and yes…even LEGO can be perceived as a sort of puzzle. Some sets are better than others when it comes to…

Along the same level of insanity as Ubisoft’s classic Rabbids, they have launched today their latest game OddBallers!   OddBallers is a bombastic, dodgeball-inspired multiplayer party game where players are encouraged to use hilariously unfair tactics and wacky weapons to win mini games. From rustic farms to waterfront towns to paradise islands, each environment features more than 30 different arenas and unique mini games. OddBallers will challenge ...

Last year one of my most enjoyable gaming experiences was getting to review Two Point Campus, as a big fan of Two Point Hospital and Theme Hospital before it way back in the day this was a no brainer. The gameplay is fun, relaxing tone, humorous writing, what’s not to love? In fact, you can read my whole review HERE. So obviously when they announced the Space Academy DLC, I was already with my astronaut ice cream and tang! Space…

Easily one of the most intriguing things to look forward to in 2023 is just how well received will the PSVR2 be? Will performance be up to expectations? Will it be a good seller despite its hefty price tag? Honestly, I would be VERY interested in getting my hands on one of these personally, but I just am not sure about the cost of this. Then there is the legitimate complaint many have about backwards compatibility with this and how…

Easily one of my most anticipated games in 2023 is coming real soon with Hogwarts Legacy. Despite the controversy around J.K. Rowling and stuff I have remained an avid fan of the series by separating art from artist in this case. I am fully prepared to experience what will easily be the most epic game we have seen set in this universe to date. With tons of spell casting, customization, decorating, even animal care there is a lot to be…

Over the past year I have played ALOT of Far Cry 6 and considering it’s one of my favorite franchises I don’t see that as a bad thing. Having beaten the core game, and all three DLCs packages from the season pass that focused on previous villains in a rouge like game definitely was a twist that was interesting and fun, but ultimately kind of wore out its welcome by the time I finished the last one. With Lost Between…

CD Projekt Red might have had a few rocky years as of late with the roller-coaster of a game with Cyberpunk 2077, but they are doing something really special for fans of what is undoubtedly their greatest hit in the Witcher 3.  Dropping on December 14th at midnight, the new update is coming out for free, to anyone who owns The Witcher 3 currently. Now there is allot in this update, this isn’t an example of just some texture smoothing…

What happens if you take Red Dead Redemption, with a dash of Van Helsing, and a sprinkle of Evil Dead? Well, you get Evil West, a fun and almost retro inspired action-adventure game from the early 90’s. There is a lot of devilish fun to be had here, if you can get past the “old” feel of some of the elements of the game. Evil West is a third-person shooter. In the game, the player assumes control of Jesse Rentier,…

I have a seven year old daughter, and much like most kids around that age, they like to watch youtubers play games, open toys, etc. Now most of the time they revolve around Roblox or Minecraft but occasionally something else will pop up and get their attention. Well I was first introduced to Animal Shelter Simulator on PC because of that. I am a sucker for a good simulation game but at the time it was only on PC, which…

In a video game world that is dominated by Forza and Gran Toursimo, is there still room in the market for a successful Need for Speed installment. While Forza and Gran Tourismo typically stay in their lanes (pun intended) Need for Speed typically adds a particular gimmick to each game to make it stand out from the competition. This time around does it pay off for them, or are they left in the dust? Welcome to Lakeshore City! The time…

I’ve been playing Kukoos: Lost Pets for a good while now, and I’m shockingly surprised with how much I have been enjoying the experience. Kukoos is a platforming adventure game in the vein of Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze, which is widely considered one of the best side scrolling platformers in history. Kukoos is packed with levels and interesting concepts and ideas, and it all works together to create a very satisfying experience. One area ...

The yearly EA Sports releases are as predictable as santa coming down the chimney at Christmas to deliver gifts, but we’ve rounded up this years game with a bit of a blurb around our favourite aspects of each game! Let’s take a quick look at FIFA 23, NHL 23, and Madden 23! FIFA 23 isn’t doing a ton different from FIFA 22, and I think that will be a constant theme this year. That being said, FIFA 23 is still…

When Logitech announced it was releasing a cloud gaming handheld device, I was instantly intrigued. Yes, you can play cloud games and games straight from your device on the SteamDeck, but that comes with a huge cost. Currently, the only handheld I loved using was the Nintendo Switch, so this device from Logitech was intriguing. Then I saw the price and began to question whether it was worth it or not.   I think we should get this out of…
