A game with interesting ideas that is let down by frustrating, repetitive gameplay.

Amazing character relationships and a bombastic plot make this a must-play for fans of Robotics;Notes. However, it’s just not for those left uncomfortable by excessive perversion. Add in how often the game crashes and its awkward pacing and DaSH becomes very hard to get through.

Despite having an interesting central mechanic, a lack of online and a dull art style prevent this from being worth picking up over other games in the genre.

A fun, simple game, let down by misguided design decisions.

Bland, repetitive, and offering zero challenge, Zorro The Chronicles isn’t aiming to be the next must-play title. What it does instead is gives children an entry point into other titles of the genre, so could be one to try if you have little ones desperate to play something new.

It isn’t bad, it’s just painfully average.

Skull and Bones is simply uninspired and tells a boring story, yet is relatively fun in its moment-to-moment gameplay.

A very simple game with little variety in gameplay. Can be decent to kill a few hours.

One can clearly see the ambition in The Beast Inside, but the developer's lack of experience means it doesn't actually reach those heights.

Fear Effect Sedna is a game that does just enough to be considered basic. Unfortunately, for fans of the Fear Effect series, this is not a triumphant return for the franchise but more so a reminder that it exists.

While there’s a chance you can’t play it without fiddling with things, there’s a fun game in here. It’s expensive, with far too much DLC, but it’s fun.

A somewhat disappointing Transformers game, but maybe a decent Earthspark game?

While everything in Shieldwall works mechanically, the lack of any variety slowly drags it down to being just okay.

A deep, intriguing story that gets buried under bland, repetitive gameplay.

A competent sequel that adds some neat touches, but doesn't fix enough of the first game's problems.

A frustrating and flawed experience that could have been great. It will be interesting to see how the game is updated and whether the developer's can capitalise on the potential that 7 Days To Die offers, but unfortunately doesn't deliver on.

All style and very little substance, Ashwalkers feels as cold and lifeless as the world it portrays.

Terrible controls and poor progression - with story threads left hanging with no sign of resolution and no variation in level design - spoil a game I was immensely enjoying playing.

Harvest Moon: One World is quite fun when played for the first 20+ hours. However, the lack of relatable characters definitely stands out here. The game also stumbles after completing the story to pull me back into the game for a long play session.

Ares Omega might interest some players with the pursuit of reaching the final floor, and like many rogue-lite games, it can be difficult and you will die a lot, but the more you play, the more it becomes a tedious, frustrating experience, which lessens any encouragement to go back.

A repetitive game with some decent adult scenes.

There were elements that I enjoyed about Coffin Dodgers, and the fast-paced action and ragdoll physics led to some crazy races and funny fails. I enjoyed the story mode, especially with its amusing ending. Plus, the final showdown race is brilliant. But the game lacks depth, and doesn’t really have that draw that made me want to keep playing, especially with the omission of online features.

A fairly repetitive dungeon crawler which is fun in small dose, but gets samey too quickly. There’s not that much wrong with Excave III, but it’s too bland to stand out from the crowd and there are better games of this type available on the 3DS.

War Hospital has some interesting ideas, but the game has some issues and bugs that ruin the experience currently.

Hellstuck: Rage With Your Friends is a game for people who want a real challenge; this title is not for the faint-hearted and requires an insane amount of patience!

In Nightmare could have been great, but the atmosphere and environments aren’t enough to make up for the woeful frame rate, frustrating enemy encounters, and overall tedium of the gameplay.

Lovely Planet Arcade is what happens when you create something in a genre you’ve not understood, which is strange considering the team got it so right only two years ago. I found it too frustrating and really haven’t enjoyed my time with it, which is a shame because it could have been so much better.

An interesting premise ultimately let down by poor execution and a lack of depth seen in most every other game in the genre.
