I have played a lot of games across a lot of systems, but the Dragon Quest series has always had a special place in my heart. Growing up as a massive fan of Dragon Ball, I gravitated towards Dragon Quest because of Akira Toriyama’s distinct art and then came to fall in love with the charm and sense of adventure … Read More

When Obsidian Entertainment announced The Outer Worlds 2, I didn’t need much convincing. This is one of the busiest and most reliable studios around, they’ve already shipped Avowed and Grounded 2 this year alone, and if any team knows how to make a witty, choice-driven RPG set among the stars, it’s them. I had a great time with the first … Read More

For fans of Kingdom Come: Deliverance, it’s been a long 7 year wait to see what the team at Warhorse Studios would come out with next. When we finally learned last year that it was going to be a Kingdom Come sequel, I, along with many others were thrilled to hear it. And now it’s finally arrived. Kingdom Come: Deliverance … Read More

As someone who’s only dipped their toes into the vast ocean of Ys games, I went into Ys Memoire: The Oath in Felghana with a mix of curiosity and cautious excitement. My history with the series is minimal—I’ve only played a handful of the games, but I’ve really enjoyed every moment of the ones I’ve experienced.

It’s been almost 7 years since the release of the last game, and it’s immediately clear that the team at Warhorse Studios have spent this time making every component of the sequel bigger and better. After spending about 8 hours with the game, … Read More

The Sand Land series has seen a lot of love recently. In just the past year, it’s gone from being a small and fairly niche piece of Akira Toriyama’s catalogue thanks to a film, anime series and now a video game adaptation. As I mentioned back when I previewed the game, I was initially worried that due to the original … Read More

Growing up as a massive fan of the works of Akira Toriyama, likely thanks to watching Dragon Ball every day for around 10 years, playing Chrono Trigger and playing every Dragon Quest entry I could get my hand’s on, I was already sold on Sand Land even before I played it. Being familiar with the source material I knew that … Read More

Role Playing Games have seen a massive increase in numbers, especially in the last couple of gaming generations. You don’t have to look far to see some publishers and developers throwing out the term, interjecting RPG elements into games that otherwise feature no role playing mechanics, just to sell monetised components and capitalise on the RPG craze. Although when we … Read More

The Final Fantasy series has long been, and likely will be one of my all time favourite series of video games. There’s something so magical about jumping into a new world, meeting a new party of characters and battling through hordes of the series’ most iconic creatures. Final Fantasy 16 has brought the fantasy part of the series back to … Read More

Strategy RPGs are having a bit of a resurgence in recent years and as a big fan of the genre, I’m all for it. Just this year alone, publisher Square Enix has even put out a couple of brand new titles in the genre with Triangle Strategy and The DioField Chronicle. But when thinking back to classic titles in the … Read More
