Somber Echoes Review
Somber Echoes is a platform heavy side-scrolling Metroidvania with progressive mechanics and an extensive interconnected maze of a world to explore. It feels a bit like playing Ori, if Ori was set in a dark, mostly destroyed spaceship and had multiple endings, each with their own boss battle. Co-developed by Norwegian based indie Rock Pocket Games and Lav Games, it’s part sci-fi, part post apocalyptic, and also draws from Greek and Roman mythology for both the story and impressive 2.5 D visuals built in Unreal Engine 5. It was originally released for PC on January 21st and later on PS5 and Xbox

She sends space knights to go fix it and you’re one of them, I think... I wasn’t really paying attention because the intro was kind of dramatic and confusing.Anyway, you wake up in your busted ship and meet QB-1, your little robot buddy who acts like a tutorial with attitude.

Fans of cozy games, adorable critters, and the Redwall series rejoice! After many years of wishfully dreaming, NEARstudios (consisting of former Bioware and Bethesda developers) has brought us Hawthorn. While still very early in development, this little cozy town of critterfolk looks like something right out of a dream, absolutely making this game a dream come true for many. Gaining a start on Kickstarter, Hawthorn has absolutely crushed it's goals. Though the main campaign itself has ended, pledges are still open to try and hit some of the amazing stretch goals they have in place. One of the main goals they
V Rising - Eternal Dominance Pack Review
V Rising is a unique mix of survival, open world, and base building genres with a fun Vampiric twist. With it's official release in early may of last year, it has come quite a long way since it's Early Access, and has had a quite positive reception. I myself have not had the pleasure of picking the title up since Early Access, so watching the refinement that has come over time has been absolutely pleasant and a real treat to revisit. The gameplay has been smooth, and things have clearly been optimized- so getting back into the saddle was an absolute
