By Ben Steele
So Arcades are mainly a thing of the past now although there are still a few dotted around they are nothing like what they used to be and I feel bad for new generations never knowing that feeling of putting 10p or 20p coins into these wonderful machines and having the time of your life well the time of my life.

Was it Iron Maiden that once asked, “Can I play with madness?!” Well, thanks to the clever developers at Rock Pocket Games and Dreamloop Games now you can, Mr Dickinson.

Moons of Madness is clearly a horror game for horror Lovecraft fans, Insert me!

My approach to playing games of this genre is to turn off the lights and strap on a pair of headphones...I’m already scared - Send help!

Headphones are essential when playing horrors - they help turn the milk chocolatey!

🏝️🔥 Isle of Spirits | XBOX | Review | "A Casual Survival Game" 🏝️🔥 @games_bullet #IndieGames #GameDev

Isle Of Spirits is a casual survival game based on accessibility and simplicity, Isle of Spirits has some really solid ideas but is let down by an oddly rigid, unforgiving end-game and a lack of diversity in the gameplay.

Isle of Spirits begins with your character washed up on the shores of a deserted island, his goal? Escape. 

To do this, you’ll need to build a raft by collecting stone, wood, plants and the like from around the island and lashing them all together so that you can sail to safety.

📕 Liberated | Review | Nintendo Switch | "A well-told story with a rough edge" 📕 @Walkabout_Games #IndieGames #GameDev

Liberated is an exciting and surprisingly involving tale with a shifting narrative that is unfortunately marred by technical issues.

Told – very effectively – via the medium of a digital, 4-issue comic book, Liberated is a game that really connects with the player through the narrative.

The desaturated imagery, in an almost cold-blue monochromatic style, drives home the storytelling.

💾🕶️ What Exactly Are Gaming Glasses? 💾🕶️

Gaming Glasses was a term that I'd never really come across before but then I noticed a trend via explodingtopics.com which explained that during the COVID 19 outbreak gaming usage spiked and millions of gamers began suffering from dry eyes, dizziness and other symptoms of long gaming sessions. Therefore more people began to use orange-tinted gaming glasses while playing.

I was immediately sceptical of the effectiveness of these so-called 'Gamer Glasses' and set out on an intrepid journey of discovery through my use of Google and typing in those immortal words "Gaming Glasses"

♠️🛩️ Red Wings: Aces of the Sky | Nintendo Switch | Review |"Smoke me a kipper, I’ll be back for breakfast... and more gaming" ♠️🛩️ @RedWingsTheGame #GameDev #IndieGames

Since the days of the Amiga, I’ve always enjoyed flight simulators with a more casual bent and the bi/triplanes of the first World War have always held a simple majesty. 

When I think of them, I’m reminded of titles such as Red Baron, Blue Max and of course public domain classic Biplanes (BIP). 

The more technical simulators with their keyboard overlays, glacial frame-rates and baffling multiple camera views never appealed to me, my trousers remained firmly buckled in their presence.
