Shaun Munro reviews Urban Trial Playground…With the glut of belated ports hitting the Nintendo Switch every week, it’s genuinely attention-grabbing when an exclusive indie title arrives on the eShop. However, with its clear intent to ape the illustrious, fiendishly difficult Trials racing franchise, it’s hard not to treat Urban Trial Playground as an ersatz – if moderately enjoyable – […]

Video Game Review – Sea of Thieves
Shaun Munro reviews Sea of Thieves…It’s been a week since Rare’s long-awaited seafaring multiplayer swashbuckler hit shores worldwide, and as just about any sensible observer expected, the game has drawn harshly divided responses from gamers and critics alike. After seven days of investigating whether the game’s sea-sloshed sandbox would grow on me, it’s a shame to […]

Video Game Review – Kirby Star Allies
Shaun Munro reviews Kirby Star Allies…Kirby’s first significant foray on the Nintendo Switch may feel like something of a malnourished affair emerging in the shadow of, say, Super Mario Odyssey, but on its own terms it is a lightly enjoyable – if exceedingly simple – little jaunt. If you’ve been inundating yourself with challenging, full-fat AAA titles […]

Video Game Review – Bravo Team
Shaun Munro reviews Bravo Team on PSVR…Bravo Team is the latest piece of evidence that developer Supermassive Games is probably spreading themselves a little too thinly these days, following on from last year’s middling PlayLink thriller Hidden Agenda and the woefully disappointing VR horror romp The Inpatient back in January. While just about every PSVR owner has been clamouring for the […]

Video Game Review – VRFC: Virtual Reality Football Club
Shaun Munro reviews VRFC: Virtual Reality Football Club on PSVR…It’s surprising that it’s taken almost 18 months of PSVR being on the market for a developer to release a fully-fledged, first-person VR football game. Footy fans have had to make do with the (admittedly spectacular) launch title Headmaster – which was focused solely on using your noggin to […]
