Redick Review

Previously known as Red Wukong but for some reason rebranded as Redick, this 3D action platformer features a main character clearly inspired by the popular novel Journey to the West, but for some reason any ties to Sun Wukong seem to be slight or completely erased from existence. The resemblances between both characters are very clear, and despite running on Unreal Engine 5, this game is lacking in so many aspects that not even the old-school gameplay slogan is enough to save it from triviality.A Slight Case of ParagonContrary to the ambitious 2010 game Enslaved: Odyssey to the West developed by

Fueled Up Review

Fueled Up is going to have a hard time trying to hide its inspiration, as any keen eye will immediately see. This spaceship handymen game is clearly based on the successful Overcooked series but trades all the delicious dishes for more mundane tasks that will determine the fate of your travel. With local and online co-op for up to four players, there’s some fun mayhem to be had with friends, but the truth is that some of the assignments can be dull and make you want to be devoured by an evil octopus from space, of all things.Overcooked in SpaceYour main

Some of my all-time favorite franchises come from developers well established in the industry despite being notorious for cutting corners (looking at you, Bethesda ;P). Now small studios, that only just get it started in this unforgiving business, have it rough enough without a know-it-all reviewer fidgeting in their seat, waiting to make an arbitrary remark

Somerville Review

Designed in utter secrecy for nearly a decade, Somerville is a tough beast to define. A sci-fi adventure with a minimalistic narrative focused on the intimate struggle of a daring father amidst a large-scale galactic conflict, it’s the kind of game that is best lived without any sort of spoilers or preconceived expectations. By the end of this epic journey, you’re left wondering what you have just witnessed, pondering on the subtext, and lingering for days on what exactly your character has experienced – and that’s the greatest compliment I can give to any game.Dad IssuesMistakenly described by most of the
