Well, an achievement without any Gamerscore. Fantasy Dash has no real claim to the ‘fantasy’ prefix. There isn’t a sniff of a goblin or
For a game that effectively gives you two choices – choose left or choose right – we are astonishingly bad at Ring of Pain. It’s part of its cruelty: even when there are only a few things in your control, you can still mess things up royally and die within the opening moments. Ring of
As a father of two sub-seven year olds, I’ve always gotten mixed up between PJ Masks and PAW Patrol. It shouldn’t be that difficult: one has kids and the other has dogs.

Happy New Year! May it be nothing like the last two. We’re going to assume that 2022 is going to be a standout, breakout year and you can’t tell us otherwise. It’s just going to start slowly, as January isn’t the most bountiful month we’ve ever had. January rarely brings us much, but this one

There has always been something about animatronic cartoon characters that I have found… creepy. As a kid, I cried the whole way through It’s a Small World when I was fortunate enough to visit Disneyworld. But it was the Five Nights at Freddy’s games that rekindled this fear of mine.

Playing and reviewing nearly EVERY game that comes out in a year, give or take a few, gives us the unique opportunity to do some exhaustive ranking.

Probably the best thing we can say about Guazu: The Rescue is that it taught us what a Guará Wolf was. Second best is that we found its main character to be adorable, if lacking a few frames of animation. Third best? Honestly, we struggle to think of more than two positive things to say

Slowly and surely Artifex Mundi have continued to build out the Hidden Object genre on Xbox. In fact, whilst their numerous franchises are all pretty well worth taking in, over the course of the last few years it’s been the Queen’s Quest series which has really picked up steam. That’s the case today as Queen’s
