Horror games don’t come around very often, so I approached Dollhouse with a sense of excited anticipation. First impressions were good as I booted up the game and was faced with a noir infused tone, with nods to Bioshock.  Sounds great doesn’t it?!

The 3rd instalment in Metalhead’s Super Mega Baseball franchise continues to improve the already highly enjoyable gameplay and customisation options that were a staple part of the previous 2 games.

When I’m writing a review about something I love, it’s hard not to turn into a gushy mess and blurt out “I love this game, it’s amazing!” Just because I love something, doesn’t mean everyone will. So, I thought I would try to explain what I love, not just about the game, but the genre […]

Resident Evil games are like buses. You wait ages and then two turn up in quick succession! Last year saw the release of Resident Evil 2 remake. You can read my full review here, but in short, I thought it was incredible! The big question is, can Capcom deliver the same excellence again with the […]

Zombie Army 4: Dead WarI think the majority of people would agree there are two things they would most like to avoid during a walk in the park. Zombies and Nazis! Throw in a World War 2 setting, a ton of guns, a plot involving Hitler raising an army of the dead to conquer the […]

Designed for 2-6 players aged 8+, the basic concept is simple: turn over a structure card and build the required shaped structure […]
