☆ Review: The Forbidden Arts - "Could Someone help these guys make a new trailer?" ☆ #IndieGame

Share This Post On Share to Facebook Share to Twitter Share This Post On
After my editor sends me a game to review, I usually start by watching the trailer, a short clip of video that is designed to build hype and show off some of the best parts of the game, but the most exciting thing about that was the burning Steam logo at the end. 
That trailer did nothing for me, and I hate that, because that is no way to go into a game, especially one that is unfinished and needs a bit of an open mind.  
The Forbidden Arts is thankfully a straightforward game: an action-adventure platformer with a simple button scheme and a good dose of ambition, but this work in progress from Stingbot Games seems to have a long road ahead still, so this is more like a dry first impression.

⚔️ 5 Simple Things That Make Breath Of The Wild Special ⚔️

Share This Post On Share to Facebook Share to Twitter Share This Post On

The Legend Of Zelda Breath Of The Wild is an amazing video game that many people have written the virtues of on various websites and magazine outlets all over the world.

It’s a game that has won over the older hardcore Zelda generation and won some new Zelda fans in 2017.



I’ve always followed Zelda from afar as I never owned a Nintendo until the Super Nes in 1992 and then I mainly played Mario games and various sports games with mates. 

At the age of 12 I was just never that into playing a solo video game like Zelda.

⚔️ Review: Azure Saga: Pathfinder - "Let's Have Fun With Noide The Droid!" ⚔️

Share This Post On Share to Facebook Share to Twitter Share This Post On

Game: Azure Saga: Pathfinder
Developer: MassHive Media
Format: PC

Me and JRPGS generally tend to be at odds with one another. I like a good story with interesting characters but I am not one for the endless grind of random battles and levelling up. 

A few years ago I played Child Of The Light on PS4 and that changed my mind on the JRPG style of game as Child Of light had the right balance of exploration, party building and battles and created a far more enjoyable experience for me.


Since then I have searched to replicate that style of game where I could get invested into the characters without the constant drain of battle after battle.

Did You Know?
“Kiting” is a video game strategy in which players run away from enemies while attacking them – as if they were flying a kite on a string.
This mechanic was pioneered by Robotron 2084, the first “twin stick” shooter – although the term ‘kiting’ was originally associated with early MMOs 

Well I didn't know that until I read the press release for Kite.

Okay, I admit it. I'm unhealthily obsessed with The Legend Of Zelda Breath Of The Wild and all its beauty and wonder!

The thing that has really got its hooks into me though is the point at which I worked out that I could cook various meals in-game using all the varied ingredients that I had scavenged from the Great Plateau.

☆ Review: Boo! Greedy kid "a sugar rush of a game" ☆ #IndieGame #GameDev

Share This Post On Share to Facebook Share to Twitter Share This Post On

Game Title: Boo! Greedy kid
Developer – Flying Oak Games
Platform Reviewed: PC (Steam)

The premise of Boo! Greedy Kid (BGK) is a simple one, you are a small child dashing and rolling your way around various (what appear to be) retirement homes in a bid to literally frighten money out of the pockets of the elderly so that you can buy sugary drinks to quaff at your leisure.

It’s a very straightforward setup that works very well in small doses which made me feel like it would probably be best suited as a game to be played on a handheld device to get the most out of it.

Let's get in the Delorean and go back in time to take a closer look at a year in video games.

I'm always interested in what happened in the glorious and not so glorious past of video games and this seems like a good way of giving you all a snapshot of a year in video games.

I'll be picking out the following things for each year to give you an insight into what that year was like to be a gamer.


  • Gaming Consoles & Computers released in that year
  • 5 Key Video Games Released in that year
  • A sample of the key video games magazines from that year
  • Some nice retro gaming adverts from that year
  • 5 Key Arcade Games Released in that year
  • 5 Awesome Films released that year (not necessarily video games related)
Now you know the format let's take a closer look at 1982
