Its been awhile since I last played Monster Boy and the Cursed Kingdom. I admit I forgotten that I even played it till now. I tried the demo again, loved it and since it was on sale and I had the Playstation 4 credit, I decided to pick the game up. And its an absolutely wonderful cartoon…I mean game! Monster Boy and the Cursed Kingdom is like a playable cartoon. The graphics are very animated cartoon like and absolutely wonderful.…

Who knew that a TV series following gangsters with Brummy accents could have such selling power? Birmingham has become the unlikely setting of Peaky Blinders, one of TV’s most popular British shows, giving our second city a focus outside the meat market and that funny shaped shopping centre. It only makes sense that a game was going to follow, and Mastermind has come along to fill that gap. What you end up with is a title that suits its source…

Some gamers are bigots. There are people who just won’t play a game with a black protagonist, or that has a trans or…

In More Thoughts From Me #220, I wrote about Final Fantasy 15 for the Playstation 4 and how I wasn’t getting into the game very much. I had stopped playing it and I was unsure if I would go back to it. For a long while, I didn’t. And just this last weekend, I started playing it again and…I like it a lot now. What? Let’s talk about Final Fantasy 15! I really liked Final Fantasy 15 Pocket for the…

It wasn’t that long ago that adventure games meant solving obscure puzzles and impossible save states. The genre has changed immeasurably over the last 30 years, but that doesn’t mean the key ingredients aren’t still there. With the release of Tell Me Why, we’re looking back at the biggest titles, and at why we still love adventure all these years later.

What do you get when you take Harvest Moon, take out all the RPG elements, add some really simple puzzles and then charge £17 for it? Well, you get Harvest Moon: Mad Dash, and you might well wish you hadn’t. Here is a game that’s almost entirely the opposite of what Harvest Moon is all about, but with the name splashed all over it and the familiar sprites front and centre. It’ll almost make growing vegetables seem a chore, if…

Over the weekend, I played some of the Marvel’s Avengers open beta on the Playstation 4. And now I have some thoughts about the game! Avengers! Assemble! I didn’t know what to expect from the Marvel’s Avengers open beta. Honestly I hadn’t been keeping track of the game. Don’t get me wrong, I love the Avengers characters but I wasn’t sure if this would be my type of game or not. So I started the beta and almost right away…

It’s Sunday afternoon in the summer. You’ve just eaten a big meal and you’re settling down to an hour in front of the TV. Battletoads. You blow the cartridge and put it in. Maybe, just maybe, this’ll be the time you make it past the second level. But probably not, because frankly you suck at this game. Sound familiar? We’ve all been there. If it wasn’t Battletoads, it might have been Mario, Punch Out, Ninja Gaiden or any other title…
