Shaun Munro reviews The Inpatient…The Inpatient is Supermassive Games’ much-anticipated follow-up to their acclaimed VR rail-shooter Until Dawn: Rush of Blood, and with promises of a rich, cinematic story that takes full, terrifying advantage of Sony’s headset, it truly seemed like the game might be the first big AAA VR hit of 2018.There’s no joy at all, then, […]

Starring Dylan Minnette, Piercey Dalton, Sharif Atkins, and Patricia Bethune.SYNOPSIS:A teenager and his mother find themselves besieged by threatening forces when they move into a new house.Proving that January isn’t merely a dumping ground for Hollywood’s most rancid theatrical releases, Netflix’s generically-monikered The Open House – which wasn’t screened […]
Video Game Review – Shu for Nintendo Switch
Shaun Munro reviews Shu for Nintendo Switch…Shu is the latest in a seemingly never-ending line of acclaimed platformers being ported to the Nintendo Switch, and though hardly a must-own title for the console, Coatsink’s vibrant romp is a fun – if fitfully infuriating – jaunt that, at just three-ish hours in length, certainly doesn’t outstay its […]
Video Game Review – InnerSpace
Shaun Munro reviews InnerSpace…InnerSpace is the debut effort from PolyKnight Games, a flight-exploration game which began development following a successful Kickstarter campaign back in 2014. While undeniably rough around the edges, the game’s enticing art-style, free-wheeling “do what you like” gameplay and ethereal musical score did nevertheless make most of my time with it both relaxing and enjoyable.Like many indie […]
Video Game Review – Super Meat Boy on Nintendo Switch
Shaun Munro reviews Super Meat Boy on Nintendo Switch…The Dark Souls of platformers – before Dark Souls was even a thing, no less – is back, available now on Nintendo Switch, and while this new port of Super Meat Boy is really just a thirst-quencher until the long-awaited Super Meat Boy Forever lands later this year, the appeal […]

Video Game Review – Accounting+
Shaun Munro reviews Accounting+…With PSVR generally still leaving owners wanting for a respectable collection of “mature” games and experiences, the new beefed-up version of Accounting, which initially released for HTC Vive last year, provides brief and disarmingly demented relief, yet feels mis-priced and mis-marketed as an actual game rather than a mere experience.The barmy brainchild of The […]
Video Game Review – Life is Strange: Before the Storm – Episode 3 ‘Hell Is Empty’
Shaun Munro reviews Life is Strange: Before the Storm – Episode 3 ‘Hell Is Empty’…Maintaining the momentum of the previous episode’s scintillating cliffhanger, Life is Strange: Before the Storm‘s “season finale” brings Chloe and Rachel’s adventure to an understated crescendo in mostly satisfying – if occasionally detached – fashion. The snappy two-hour closer goes by in […]
Video Game Review – Vostok Inc. on Nintendo Switch
Shaun Munro reviews Vostok Inc. on Nintendo Switch…If you’re not familiar with the “clicker” genre of video games – as I wasn’t prior to playing Nosebleed Interactive’s Vostok Inc. – it encompasses games reliant on grinding resources and performing repetitive actions in order to progress, requiring an abundance of – wait for it – clicking on […]
