Sometimes it is hard to review a game because you don’t have much to say about it. Sometimes it is near impossible because you have too much to talk about. Can you guess which is was for Joshua Jarrett’s review of Cloud Gardens?

Last month felt like the beginning of a long reckoning and so it felt very strange to be “celebrating games” this month with Gamescom. Alex Green is back to help us run this strange gambit of news.
There are hordes of co-op multiplayer shooters right now, so we got Mattew John McCormick back in to let us know if Back 4 Blood looks like it will survive this wave.
There certainly are a lot of great dungeon-crawlers out these days, so it takes a lot to stand out. Which is why Boyfriend Dungeon boldly askes, “What if you could bang your sword?” For that reason and more Jamie A. Nicholas CHOO-CHOO-CHOOSES Kitfox’s new game.
We are not going to make “that” grape pun but Oisín Kuhnke thinks that Garden Story is BERRY good and you should make a DATE out of playing it… In fact they have almost nothing to WINE about… Too far?
If I know one thing about Destiny, it is that everyone who plays Destiny loves Destiny.
If I know another thing about Destiny, it is that I have NO IDEA WHAT IS GOING ON IN DESTINY ANYMORE!
So we brought in resident Guardian, Jon Simpson, to round up everything at Bungie’s first livestream for The Witch Queen DLC.
Rats get a hard time. Unfairly so. For that reason, Odd Bug Studio decided to make the star of its new 2D souls-like a loveable rodent… Wait that sounds like a really mean thing to do? James Troughton lets us know if rat lovers will be delighted or mortified to play Tails of Iron.
Video games don’t have a great history of portraying realistic bodies and despite years of change, Jamie A. Nicholas believes the industry still struggles to present anything other than buff men.
Is it time for the power washers to move over? Dave McAdam lets us know if Lawn Mowing Simulator makes the cut… eeeehh?! See what we did there?
The Ramp (or as I like to call it “chill lo-fi trucks to slap concrete and relax to”) is a digital toy with modest aspirations. However, Harry Boulton believes it does everything it tries so well it is almost impossible not to keep coming back to.
Marie Pritchard joins us for the first time on startmenu to explain why the sidequests in Horizon Zero Dawn are so much more than meets the eye.
Huge content warning, some truly awful things came out about the games industry this month. However, we and Alex Green felt it was necessary to cover it in our monthly round-up.
13 years on and one of the greatest series in video games still bares the scars of a bad faith right-wing campaign to remove its sexual and queer content. Mass Effect Legendary Edition should have finally mended things but James Troughton argues it just reopened old wounds.
Indie Metroidvania Souls-like is one of the most crowded mini-genres. While Ender Lilies does not do much new, Joshua Jarrett believes that what it does do, is done nearly flawlessly.
Always have a plan. That’s the key to any strategy game. Dave McAdam’s plan is to play the game wrong and quickly get annoyed.
We never said it was a good plan.
Space… The final frontier… The beyond… The place where I can make a ship that looks like a doggo. Jamie A. Nicholas thinks this regularly updated 2020 release is shooting for the moon, but does its find itself among the stars?
