Yes, there’s only three game modes (two of which are simple free-for all’s) and only five maps for each. It isn’t a game many will play for hours on end but if you’ve got the extra controllers it’s a great way to battle your friends like it’s the ’90s again.

CLANNAD Side Stories was somewhat disappointing for me. I was expecting to see more of the characters, and these stories do not extend the main story either.

Though difficulty may be hard to found, the lack of actual repetitious puzzles is astounding, smooth music played throughout and the overall fun gameplay to found makes Dan perfect to jump into for spare moments.

Artifex Mundi has created a worthwhile experience with Grim Legends: The Forsaken Bride that any player can appreciate. The Forsaken Bride utilizes new gameplay mechanics and derives off the path of the usual hidden object game-type.

A game with some interesting gameplay ideas and unique takes on the classic side-scrolling shooter but unfortunately it doesn’t feel as intuitive as other classic games of this kind.

Tumblestone manages to deliver a unique puzzle experience while keeping you on your toes as the game changes slightly with every new modifier.

Graphically, the game looks extremely bland, and whilst the animations look fairly good, the character models look awful with almost no texture to them or any facial details at all. It just doesn’t feel finished at all, and that’s not just the visuals, the entire game feels rushed with bland graphics, bland combat, and no story.

There are enough issues with the game play that just make much too hard to enjoy. While the progression is good, what you are doing to progress isn’t.

Overall Cricket Captain 2016 is a game that will appeal to a small minority of people, if you have the patience and knowledge, you can really see the potential this game holds with its deep simulation and micromanagement, however for the casual Cricket fan this game is far too convoluted and menu heavy to recommend. Couple that with a career mode that lacks any real direction and you get a simulation game that just doesn’t quite fit the bill for me.

What Song of the Deep does have in heart, it just can’t quite make up for it’s wonky physics and sloppy mechanics.

Dreamals: Dream Quest is a difficult game hidden behind cute basic graphics. If you enjoyed Dreamals then you’ll also enjoy this although this would make you someone who enjoys being frustrated a lot.

The plot alone is worth the price of admission, but with some fantastic audio/visual design and a fundamentally brilliant battle system, this rather unexpected Wii U exclusive ranks amongst the finest JRPGs of the generation and a genuinely unique curio that all Wii U owners should try.

The controls are responsive and the shooting is damn right awesome.

Despite its flaws, RymdResa offers a mostly relaxing experience and is something a little different from the norm.

If you’re looking for something that’s a bit more mild as far as mechanics, but not necessarily as battle focused as Dynasty Warriors from the same studio, I would actually recommend Samurai Warriors 4: Empires which takes aspects from both franchises. But if you do want a fully thought focused war simulation game that will make you question every move and have noticeable future consequences set in a historically accurate Asian period, RTK13 is the only valid choice currently available.

Valentino Rossi: The Game is a solid entry in the long running MotoGP series made all the better for the inclusion of the Valentino Rossi inspired, Legacy Mode.

The game is basically just you trying to pull off ‘stylish’ stunts as you swing around, doing whatever the game tells you to do. I put stylish in quotation marks, because what I know stylish to mean and what the game thinks it means are apparently two different things.

Battlezone 98 Redux prevails because it keeps the identity of the original, without alienating any modern audiences. The game shows its age in terms of its graphics, its controls, and its story. But the timeless blend of action and strategy are what makes this game stay fresh, and with the strategy genre becoming stale with each new release, perhaps this remaster is just what it needs to revitalise it.

I really enjoyed my time playing Onechanbara Z2: Chaos, probably way more than I should have. This is one of the most over the top games I have played in a long time and because of that it’s highly memorable.

I was impressed by this add-on.

I did like RevErsi Quest, despite the downfalls. Maybe a more proficient language translator would solve the issue. But given that language from the Far East, is vastly different from language that we know, it really isn’t that bad a translation when you take that in to consideration. A fair score for a good attempt at something quite different from the other Indie titles available.

Furi is a fine blend of reaction timed combat and twin stick shooter that doesn’t fail to impress. It’s a punishingly tough game for all the right reasons, with an enemy variety that keeps you guessing and learning as you progress.

Works as a wonderful homage to what some consider to be the ‘golden age’ of horror films, but as a game it finds itself struggling to find its way.

This is a fighting game that not only looks great but also has a lot of depth to the combat.

With a little more direction and a hefty amount of spit and polish (hold the spit), I think Planar Conquest can move up from a 5, to a 7/10! That’d even make it worth the price tag.

Yes, it’s better than last years’, Carmageddon: Reincarnation, but a bit of polish and a few extra game modes can’t save was is a fundamentally flawed video game.

At £11.99/$14.99, I would say that you would be a fool to pass by the chance to take part in the worlds cutest riot. The game offers up a challenge that steadily gets tougher the further that you progress. The addictive nature, coupled with fluid gameplay and controls make Anarcute a pleasure to play.

It was an extremely pleasant surprise.
