There is nothing inherently broken in the game, but there is plenty that could be fixed. Valley is fun (at times), but is simply not polished enough to maintain consistent amounts of said fun.

Frankly I’m a bit baffled about why you would release a game in this stage of development as a “full release”. If you like the top-down shooter genre, here is my recommendation for you: Follow this game on Steam and check for updates they might release, then get the undeniable indie-king of the genre: Running With Rifles.

ClusterPuck 99 was entertaining while it lasted, but unfortunately, I found that my enjoyment of the game was rather short-lived.

It would be harsh to call it a mess, but Rodea: The Sky Soldier is an utter disappointment with brief glimpses of a good game smothered by poor design choices and a long and ultimately damaging development time.

Lumini has amazing graphics, beautiful music, and the Lumini are very sweet. The game is relaxing, but there is just not enough to do in the game. I found myself getting bored really fast.

A grand experiment poorly implemented and severely hamstrung by a lack of actual stuff to do.

Will I be playing Overruled! again? No but if you can find someone who’s willing to play with you or by some miracle you find an online lobby then maybe give it a go, but don’t get your hopes up too high.

Fantasy Pirates attempted to bring a different approach to a swashbuckling adventure: Sadly due to lacklustre controls, painful graphics and a disappointing length there is hardly any fun to be had.

What you get here is a puzzle game with a difference, and that in itself is to be commended in an age of Portal and Minecraft clones. It’s just a shame that the execution isn’t much better, when the game backs itself into a corner with its own story premise and confines itself to boring environments and dull characters for an experience that sometimes feels as painful as some of the deaths onscreen.

I disliked the Kojima-level lack of subtlety, I disliked the lumbering pacing where the game forces you to wait for a lift to arrive, I disliked how pleased it seems with itself despite having magpied every scene from a better written work.

It’s not even slightly challenging as you always feel over powered and you end up simply not caring as you destroy everything in sight.

Despite its many issues, Brick Breaker can still prove an oddly compelling and undoubtedly addictive experience. The messy visuals, twitchy controls and inconsistent physics all do their best to ruin the fun, but the strong underlying template ensures that there is still fun to be had from what remains one of gaming’s most resolutely popular concepts.

Do you like the series and want to play the 2016 edition? If so then I suggest you buy the Android/iOS version and yourself a few pounds. But if you’re really want it on the PS Vita and have the money, then go ahead! You will have enough content to keep you playing.

Postal REDUX is a mediocre game from 1997 with a fresh lick of paint. Now in 2016, without the controversy to shift units, Postal is just pointless.

The game was obviously intended for adults with the subject matter but then it doesn’t respect the intellect of the player. If it was an animated picture it would be a visual arts spectacle but sadly it’s a video game.

VEV: Viva Ex Vivo is an interesting experience. In a lot of ways it’s different from anything I’ve experienced in recent gaming history. It’s also very interesting and at least somewhat educational. But it needs tuning. Someone really needs to just sit down and give it a triple-A comb over. It doesn’t need more levels or plot or anything like that. They just need to add in some goals so that you aren’t just floating around for no reason 30 minutes at a time.

Even with the interesting structure, solid voice work and well written script, fans should be aware that, despite a handful of positives, this is yet another let down for those waiting for a video game interpretation worthy of the fantastic source material upon which it is based.

It pales in comparison to Minecraft, and lacks the originality it needs. If this game had been released a year or two earlier, it would have been received better, but in a world where many companies have tried to make Minecraft 2.0, this game just does not have what it takes to be included in your game library.

If you’re a Goosebumps mega fan or a point and click pioneer you might actually get some enjoyment out of Goosebumps: The Game. If you’re not a Goosebumps superfan, or find point and clicks tedious this is a hard pass.

So far this is my favorite game from this collection and I’ll definitely return to it a number of times. It’s fun both alone and with a friend, has an actual plot, doesn’t get repetitive, and genuinely stands up to games made today on a number of levels. Not the best game you can buy, but certainly an excellent one.

Blood Alloy does have some good aspects, which makes it enjoyable for short play sessions but the progression and content is lacking depth and purpose.

The whole thing just didn’t work on PS4 and I did not want to carry on playing after half way through the first level/day. If you really want to try out Randal’s Monday go right ahead, but play it on PC and don’t waste your money on the console version.

Its gameplay is marred by the scoring system, the off-key notes, lack of song variety, and the amount of distractions. Being a rhythm game, that’s too great a toll.

The gameplay can be as tight as you like, but if there’s nothing to inspire me to boot the game back up of an evening, well… OPQAM, I’m afraid you’re missing the mark.

It is a very basic game, but its at least entertaining if you’re bored. I’d rather play the original but since I don’t have a game boy any more, then at least Tetraminos fills that Tetris shaped void.

The game was developed with the Oculus Rift as its target port, so playing with the archaic computer monitor made this visceral experience a little less so.

I cannot stress it enough, this game is functional, playable, and looks absolutely wonderful. With all that said, there isn’t much else to this game and unless you’d like to play the game to observe the awesome claymation (or to net a fairly easy 1000G), then there’s not much here for you. I truly wish I could praise the game more, but I simply felt that after my four hour playthrough was just a slog simply to be able to aptly review the full game.

It’s a shame that the graphics are the main negative factor, and the only use for the gamepad was to see double the slender. But I can’t knock it for its ability to create a tense atmosphere and not disappoint the “Slender” series.
