Finding Frankie Review: Parkour or Die (PS5)
I’ve been a fan of physical game shows like Total Wipeout and Takeshi’s Castle for years. This is the same with the Horror genre of video games. Now, Finding Frankie attempts to mix the excitement of these game shows but with an intense horror story featuring killer mascots. Developers SUPERLOU Games invite you to a terrifyingly twisted parkour show that may or not have gone terribly wrong. You’ll spend your time traversing through numerous obstacle courses and small deadly minigames.

This free update is available today though currently only to PC players (Steam and Epic Games Store with GOG to follow). It mainly consists of improvements on graphics and DLSS support, though there are a few nice surprises too. Remedy has said that console players will be receiving this update too.
Tails of Iron 2: Whiskers of Winter Review - A Cold Dark Ratventure (PS5)
Last year I was looking through my backlog and decided to give the first Tails of Iron a spin. I was brought into a fantasy world filled with rats, toads and other anthropomorphic people. The game developed by Odd Bug Studio gave off both Game of Thrones and Redwall vibes and as a fan of both, I was hooked. Then low and behold, a sequel to this fantastic world emerges in the latter half of winter in 2025.
8 Games to Look Out for in March (2025)
Back again for another round of video game releases and like February, March continues to bring in many fantastic games. 2025 has already been quite a busy year for video games and it’s only getting more hectic with each passing month. In March we have many releases from big studios like Ubisoft, SEGA, and game of the year studio Hazelight. We have AAA releases, new instalments in long-running franchises, and a few sequels.

Back again for another round of video game releases and boy is this a packed month.

This is due to a large amount of big games deciding to release in February. We’ve got AAA games, sequels galore, a remaster collection, and a small sprinkle of indie fun.

Project Tower Review: A Short and Underwhelming Bullet Hell (PS5)
New year with many games to play and review and for any fans of Bullet Hells or Sci-Fi, this game might be a fun distraction. Developed by Yummy Games, Project Tower is a new third-person shooter set in an original Sci-Fi universe. You’ll shoot and dodge your way through a few levels set in different biomes, on a quest to climb the alien Tower towards freedom. It’s a short 2-4 adventure, though your time within Project Tower may be extended if you find Bullet Hells tricky.
Among Ashes Review: Horrorception (PS5)
While the festive season is underway, the non-stop urge to dive into the world of Horror remains. It’s even better when you find a game that’s set around the Christmas season, enter Among Ashes. Developed by Rat Cliff Games, Among Ashes is the newest first-person horror experience that has you sitting in your room playing a horror game.
8 Games to Look Out for in December (2024)
Here we are everyone, the final month is upon us and we have our final list of recommendations. November started to give us fewer big releases and catered to Indie games, VR and AA games. We got to create the water park of our dreams in Planet Coaster 2. This brought out a lot of creativity and excitement to manage your very own theme park. We also got the newest horror title from the creator of Silent Hill, Keiichiro Toyama, Slitterhead.
8 Games to Look Out for in November (2024)
Welcome back to another list of upcoming games we think you should look out for next month. October brought in some of the biggest releases of the year, from amazing AAA games to intriguing indies.

One in particular that excelled was the remake of Silent Hill 2, which brought back the classic horror for modern audiences.
RetroRealms Arcade: Double Feature Review: Two Horror Legends Go Retro (PS5)
October is the wonderful time when everyone celebrates everything spooky, whether in film, books, television, and of course video games. What’s great to see during this time is when we get games based on characters from the genre. I’ve enjoyed the likes of Friday the 13th The Game, Alien: Isolation, and more video game adaptations. Joining this vast catalogue is RetroRealms Arcade, a virtual arcade where you can play 16-bit arcade adventures based on horror icons.
8 Games to Look Out for in October (2024)
Welcome back to another list of upcoming games we think you should look out for next month. September was a fantastic month for games ranging from interesting indie releases to amazing AAA’s. One of the biggest releases of the month was Astro Bot, the loveable PlayStation mascot that lives in our PlayStation 5’s. From the fun and vibrant levels to the amount of PlayStation nostalgia, Astro Bot quickly stood up as a contender for Game of the Year.
8 Games to Look Out for in September (2024)
Welcome back to another list of upcoming games we think you should look out for next month. August provided a few interesting titles that either made a splash or a small whisper in the gaming space. One major release was the highly anticipated Black Myth Wukong which had us engaging with thrilling bosses all inspired by Chinese mythology. We also were greeted with the charming puzzle game Thank Goodness Your Here which had us explore a northern English town.
Sam & Max The Devil's Playhouse Review: The Final Act for Sam & Max (PS4)
Ever since my Xbox 360 days, I’ve been curious about the crimestopping duo of Sam & Max. My interest in them increased with their roles in the Poker Night games but unfortunately, I never did take the initiative to give them a go. Now it’s 2024 and the final game in Telltale’s Sam & Max trilogy is getting remastered making it the perfect time to give these legends a shot. Finally, we’re here with the final entry in the Sam & Max trilogy, Sam & Max The Devil’s Playhouse.
Sam & Max Beyond Time and Space Review: Another Comedic Triumph (PS4)
Ever since my Xbox 360 days, I’ve been curious about the crimestopping duo of Sam & Max. My interest in them increased with their roles in the Poker Night games but unfortunately, I never did take the initiative to give them a go. Now it’s 2024 and the final game in the Telltale trilogy is getting a remaster, making it the perfect time to give these Telltale legends a shot. We’re now onto the second part of Sam & Max’s adventures, Sam & Max Beyond Time and Space.
Bleak Faith: Forsaken Review: More Faith Than Bleak (PS5)
After previewing Bleak Faith: Forsaken recently, I’ve returned to the bleak world ready to continue my adventure. That being the latest Souls-like from an indie studio of three inspired by the works of FromSoftware. Developed by Archangel Studios, Bleak Faith was originally released in early access for PC and released back in March 2023. The developers have been hard at work updating the game to what they intended it to be.
8 Games to Look Out for in August (2024)
August is here and that means we have another list of upcoming game releases for the month. Back in July, we had some interesting titles released with mostly positive reactions. We had quite a few different multiplayer experiences to sink our grinding teeth in. First, we had The First Descendant which combined slick gameplay with an interesting Sci-Fi world. Hoyoverse released their newest multiplayer experience with Zenless Zone Zero unleashing even more unique characters into their community.
Sam & Max Save The World Review: A Hypnotic Good Time (PS4)

Now it’s 2024 and the third game based on the duo from Telltale is getting a remaster in August making it the perfect time to give these Telltale legends a shot. I’ll be going through each of the games starting with Sam & Max Save The World.
Bleak Faith: Forsaken Preview: A Not So Bleak Souls-Like (PS5)
Here we are with another game from an indie studio inspired by the works of FromSoftware. Who can blame them, their games are wonderful anger-inducing pieces of art that the majority of gamers have gotten good to love. From the addictive gameplay, the amazing bosses, and some creative lore within their worlds. Now due to the love for these games, the market has become oversaturated with them. However, I see this as a chance for us to play in genres that FromSoftware wouldn’t go near.
Darkest Dungeon II Review: A Worthy Successor (PS5)
After releasing outside of early access on PC last year, Darkest Dungeon II is finally ready for consoles. If you’re not aware of the Darkest Dungeon series, it’s a gem of an indie game where you embark into difficult dungeons. Developed by Red Hook Studios, play as a large cast of characters traversing through different dungeons of varied difficulty. The original game won Best RPG of 2016 and currently holds a Metacritic score of 84.

You’ll meet a cast of Scottish characters that are truly a delightful bunch, even in the face of death. Travel through each part of the oil rig, searching for a way out.
8 Games to Look Out for in July (2024)
July is upon us, which means we have another list of upcoming game releases for the month. Back in June, we had a bit of a breather from big AAA game releases. June was mostly dominated by DLCs from the likes of Elden Ring and Destiny 2. However, we also had other fantastic games worthy of celebration. PC players finally got their chance to own the entire Kingdom Hearts franchise on Steam. We also got the console release for Slime Rancher 2, adding even more ways to farm cute slimes.
8 Games to Look Out for in May (2024)
Here we are once again ending another month of brilliant game releases. Now entering May, there are more games to highlight for your consideration. However, we’ll give a quick recap of how April went. Last month had some solid releases with the controversial release of Stellar Blade containing exquisite swordplay with a protagonist that could rival 2B from Nier Automata. We also got our hands on Sker Ritual which was practically a homage to Call of Duty‘s classic zombies mode.
Tails of Iron 2: Whiskers of Winter - First Impressions
Back in March, Odd Bug Studio revealed Tails of Iron 2: Whiskers of Winter, a sequel to their rodent action RPG opus. The trailer highlighted a new protagonist, a new region to explore, and a terrifying new enemy. After praying to the rat gods, I was invited to a preview event. I was shown the opening moments, featuring a few boss fights and cinematic moments. Even though it was a short amount of time, I managed to get a good amount of details on what the sequel had in store for us.
The Kindeman Remedy Review: A Rough Cut (PS5)
Many management sims out there usually go off the similar themes of building something from the ground up. Some go beyond their themes with an interesting gimmick, The Kindeman Remedy‘s is murder but for science. Developed by Troglobyte Games, The Kindeman Remedy is a twisted dark tale disguised as a management sim. I was intrigued by their sinister sim since I’ve played a similar game called Ravenous Devils. Both games share similar themes and gameplay and I’m always a fan of dark themes.

After a good wait, The Last Case of Benedict Fox has finally graced our PlayStations with the definitive version.

Pacific Drive Review: A Supernatural Road-Like (PS5)
Ever since 2022 when I first saw the reveal trailer at Sony’s State of Play, Pacific Drive has been on my radar. A road trip survival game through a warped supernatural area of the United States sounded like a great time. Thankfully after almost two years of waiting, I can safely say it is and more. Pacific Drive, developed by Ironwood Studios has you take the role of the protagonist known as The Driver.
Project Downfall Review - A Night Of Blood & Pixels (Switch)
After playing numerous shooters over the years, one that’s always stayed rent-free in my mind is Hotline Miami. The top-down high-octane shooter provided hours of brutal entertainment with its visuals and epic soundtrack. One thought I had back then was, what if Hotline Miami had a first-person perspective, would it be as good? Well now it’s 2024 and I’ve finally got my answer, Project Downfall.
8 Games To Look Out For In February (2024)
As another month ends another one begins which means even more game releases. We’ll be providing our picks for February while reminiscing over what came before. Last month began our trip into 2024’s year of gaming, and it was a good start for what’s to come. We had a blast with Tekken 8 and enjoyed its new and returning characters.
