Mini Review Turnip Boy Robs A Bank (Switch) - A Faulty Frame Rate Foils This Fun Caper
Farmed robbery
After getting a taste of the criminal life in Turnip Boy Commits Tax Evasion, the cheeky root vegetable returns in Turnip Boy Robs A Bank to, uh, rob a bank—multiple times. While the original game was a charming action-adventure title, the sequel takes inspiration from the likes of Enter the Gungeon and The Binding of Isaac to...
Gore-trait Of Ruin
The genre blend of Metroidvania and Soulslike is a tried and true combination. And it makes sense; two styles of game with a deep focus on exploration and strict difficulty were bound to cross paths. Games like Salt and Sanctuary, Blasphemous, and — of course — Hollow Knight

Mini Review Turnip Boy Commits Tax Evasion (Switch) - Witty Zelda-Inspired Top-Down Tax Avoidance
Vegan-friendly
No one likes paying taxes. Unfortunately, it’s something we all have to do and wilfully committing tax evasion is not something we would ever encourage anyone to do. Isn’t it wonderful, then, that you can evade as much tax as you like in Turnip Boy Commits Tax Evasion, an action-RPG from developer Snoozy Kazoo. It may well be one...
Review Blue Fire (Switch) - A Superb Action-Platformer That Puts Gameplay First
Fire in the whole
It’s often interesting when a game wears its inspirations on its sleeve, especially so when they actually manage to capture some of the magic of the beloved titles from which it draws said influence. Spoiler alert: Blue Fire is a roaring success, weaving together elements from several other games in a way that still manages to...
Mini Review Bite The Bullet (Switch) - Looks Delicious, But Lacks Fine Flavour
Hunger pains
If we’re being honest with ourselves, we’ve all overindulged in food at some point in our lives (heck, 2020 has done a number on this writer’s belly alone). But could you imagine being able to consume literally anything and everything? You could argue that Pac-Man got there first, but Bite the Bullet is a run-and-gun action game...

News Fourth-Wall-Breaking Adventure Game 'Restless Soul' Has Strong Super Paper Mario Vibes
The ghost of a smile
If you've been alive for the past couple of decades, you've probably, at some point, dreamed of packing it all in, throwing your phone and computer into a lake, moving to a cottage in the forest, and living off the land. We're with you, friend. The video game equivalent of that is eschewing modern photorealistic games that are...

But Nira, the debut game from one-man studio Baseline Games, has planes. And that means we can escape. Sort of. Nira's simple pixel style gives us Atari vibes, but from the...
