REVIEW / A Short Hike (Switch)
When I booted up Adam Robinson-Yu’s A Short Hike for the first time, I was hoping for a relaxing game that I could become pleasantly addicted to for a few hours. Wow did this game deliver. The story is simple. While visiting a relative on a small island, Claire is waiting for an important phone call and learns that the best place for cell phone reception is at the top of a mountain. Her journey to the top includes a number of memorable interactions with the other inhabitants of the island, leading to a number of pleasant distractions.

REVIEW / BPM: BULLETS PER MINUTE (PC)
Rhythm games are a niche genre that seems to be clawing for survival here in the West. After the meteoric rise, slow fall, and failed attempt at the resurrection of the band simulating Guitar Hero and Rock Band, rhythm games have not been able to come anywhere close to reclaiming that level of popularity. To do so, they have attempted to innovate on the genre in various ways. Whether it be dancing, racing, top-down RPGs, VR, and, now, rogue-like FPS through BPM: BULLETS PER MINUTE.

REVIEW / Samurai Jack: Battle Through Time (X1)
Samurai Jack is a cartoon unlike any other. With four seasons rated TV-Y7 from the early 2000s and a fifth rated TV-14 from 2017, the show takes a visually beautiful approach to telling the story of a samurai sent to the distant future when the known galaxy has been conquered by the god of evil Aku. Told through visually beautiful and creative episodes, subtle writing that explores themes of morality, justice, kinship, destiny, and many others while sprinkling in plenty of moments of levity, every episode of Samurai Jack is something special. So, how does the new game, awkwardly released three years after the show’s sudden resurrection, fare?

REVIEW / Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1+2 (XO)
I love the Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater games. I always have, from the moment I first played the demo on my Dreamcast (yes, the first two games did come out on Dreamcast.) And while I stopped playing new installments after American Wasteland, I never stopped going back to the old ones. I’ve been wanting to see some representation of the series on modern consoles for a long time, and now that the completely remastered Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1+2 is here, I can’t put it down. I could end the review right there, but I have a feeling some people might need a bit more convincing.

REVIEW / Helheim Hassle (PC)
Limbs are useful things. They make life easier when you want to get around, pick things up, or remove them, and throw them at people you don’t like. No? Well no, maybe not the last one but you have to admit if you could pull your arm off and use it to get to those spots that are just out of reach it would be a bit handy. In Helheim Hassle, the slightly mad-cap puzzler I’ve been playing of late you can do just this. You can also remove your head. This creates its own set of questions about your mortality that we’ll hopefully be answering in just a little bit. The more pressing query for the moment, though, is as to whether it’s any good. Let’s see, shall we?

REVIEW / WINTERMOOR TACTICS CLUB (PC)
The strategy genre is a funny one. I feel that out of all the genres this is one of the most love/hate. The tactics sub-genre definitely doesn’t get as much love as it deserves and this is where we’re going to be today. The game is Wintermoor Tactics Club and I have to say that I’m having a heap of fun with it.

REVIEW / Battletoads (XO)
I never played the original Battletoads back in the day; it was before my time. And when I did eventually learn about the series, I didn’t give it much thought. That is, until the closely-timed releases of Rare Replay and Rash’s appearance in Killer Instinct. With the former including the much better-looking arcade game, this is how I learned about the appearances and personalities of the toads, and I really liked what I saw. Now the Toads are back with something a little bit different.

REVIEW / Mittelborg: City of Mages (PS4)
I’m a massive fan of all things strategy. It doesn’t matter what a game is asking of me, if there’s brainpower involved I’m usually in. On paper Mittelborg: City of Mages looked rather cool, so I thought I’d give it a whirl and let you lot know how I got on. The experience was definitely an interesting one, whether that be good or bad, however, very much remains to be seen.

REVIEW / Aerial_Knight’s Never Yield (Switch)
Like the rest of the world that’s been staying safe at home, I tuned in to the recent Indie World Showcase that happened last month to see what’s going on in the world of indie games coming to the Switch. One of the games that caught my eye was Aerial_Knight’s Never Yield. Who is this Aerial_Knight? Why is his moniker using an underscore rather than a space like a normal name? Why is he endlessly running on this game?

REVIEW / Secret Government (PC)
I love a bit of cloak and dagger. There’s something really satisfying about not having to do any fighting because you’ve manipulated another sap into getting stabbed a lot for you. Anything that makes me want to rub my hands together and cackle with glee is bound to be bags of fun. I fully realize that none of what I’ve just said says anything for my personality or mental stability but it does lead us nicely into today’s game. I’ve been playing Secret Government on Steam and I decided it would be mightily remiss of me not to share.

REVIEW / Alchemy Emporium (PC)
Some people out there enjoy the minutiae of everyday life, especially when it comes in the form of management games. One of those genres is shop management, where the joys of buying low and selling high, as well as appeasing customers, are the keys to success. An Italian developer, Curtel Games, recently took a stab at it with its game, Alchemy Emporium, out now on Steam for PCs.
