Released on PC in 2018, Frostpunk might be my favourite city-builder of all time. Set in a harsh, unforgiving world in which a global cooling has wreaked havoc on the world and driven a small colony of survivors to settle the last city on Earth around a steam generator, Frostpunk forces you to make tough decisions and many compromises on your journey for survival. Its most recent DLC, Frostpunk: The Last Autumn, brings you back to the time just before the eternal winter strikes and comes with a new set of challenges.

1stPlayer K8 Fire Dancing Kit Review
These days, most products are tailored to one specific function. It makes sense that having a singular focus will help create the best version of that product. It also means that it becomes harder to use that product for any purpose other than the one it was specifically made for. This is as true about gaming accessories as it is about anything else. For example, have you tried writing an essay on a mechanical keyboard? Sure the keystrokes might be quick, but after 2 or 3 hours of straight key-clacking noises, you will be ready to throw it out the window. ...
Read More888 Poker Review
For those who are looking to play poker online, there are a ton of different options, some of which are better than others. With so many different opportunities, it’s sometimes hard to pick the one you think will be best. Part of our human nature makes us pretty skeptical of online gaming sites, and it definitely should. There are a ton of sites that are not legitimate, and are just looking to take your money, someway and somehow. When looking…
Read MoreGhost Recon: Breakpoint Review
Released earlier this week, Ghost Recon: Breakpoint is the latest in Tom Clancy’s open-world shooter franchise. Following in the footsteps of Wildlands while promising an entirely remastered combat system and a range of new features, Breakpoint was one of the most exciting announcements at this year’s E3. With many recent games suffering from being over-hyped and then failing to deliver upon release, the question at the back of many minds remained: how will Breakpoint measure up to the revolutionary expectations that have been built for it? Let’s find out!

Wireless Bluetooth Earbuds are all the rage now, and while the marketplace use to be dominated by Apple Air Pods and the Samsung Equivalent, more and more companies are getting in on the action, and everyone is in competition to see who can get the biggest piece of the market pie. The most shocking revelation while researching for this review is what people want in Bluetooth earbuds, and it wasn’t what I thought! Let’s dive into the Creative Outlier Air…
Read MoreGraviTrax Review
We’ve reviewed our fair share of toys over the last number of years, including one of the most iconic construction toys on the entire planet: LEGO. Yet somehow, a new toy has entered the Roffel household that is like no other, that has captured the imagination of my kids, even weeks after we first opened it up. I’m talking about GraviTrax, a marble track STEM toy from Ravensburger, one that has already taken Europe by storm, and is now invading…
Read MoreRemnant: From The Ashes Review
Remnant: From the Ashes simultaneously feels like a brand new mix of genres and a familiar title reminiscent of gaming days gone by. By themselves, the third-person combat, dungeon-crawling looting and randomly-generated playthroughs are all very comfortable and well-used elements of action-adventure games but the manner in which Gunfire Games has combined them provides an overall experience unlike anything I have played before. That being said, let’s take a deeper look into Remnant: From the Ashes!
Read More1stPlayer MK6 Bullet Hunter Mechanical Keyboard Review
As most gamers know, the faster you play, the better you are. This is one of the main reasons that helped mechanical keyboards make a resurgence in the world of PC peripherals. Unlike the mechanical keyboards of the past, modern versions are stylish and full of secondary functions that are targeted towards player convenience. With all of these features often comes a hefty price tag. But not always. Today we are looking at 1stPlayer's MK6 Bullet Hunter RGB keyboard which promises a fully operational experience complete with RBG lighting and media controls at a ...
Read MoreGame of Thrones: Catan Review
A few weeks ago, we posted our “How to Play” article for Game of Throne: Catan – Brotherhood of the Watch. While I’ve been fairly vocal about my dislike of the base version of Catan, many of the spin off adaptations – most notably to date the Star Trek version – have improved on my main problems with the original. Was Brotherhood of the Watch also able to satisfy my concerns? Let’s dive in! In my opinion, the additions to…
Read MoreVillainous Review
When consuming different forms of media when it is based on something we love, it’s often hard to determine whether the media you are engaging with is actually good, or if you are looking and experiencing it with rose colored glasses. This was the worry I had when Ravesnburger first published Disney’s Villainous, but since the original release – and two stand-alone expansion – I can easily say that Villainous is one of the best games I’ve played within the…
