A selection of games in this bulletin, from the shooty-shooty-bang-bang of Postal Redux to the quizzical quandaries of Who Wants to be a Millionaire via some 32-bit stylings, courtesy of Metroidvania-lite, Foregone.
π§π§♂️ Undead Darlings: No Cure For Love | Nintendo Switch | Review | "Zombie Girlfriend Simulator 2020" π§π§♂️ @UndeadDarlings #GameDev #IndieGames
It’s a game that brings a smirk to your face through its goofy humour and its oddball storyline and it’s keeping me coming back for more of the same.
It’s a good mix of a Japanese visual novel-style storytelling with a heavy splash of dungeon crawling and a sprig of turn-based RPG lite combat. Bake that in an oven with battling cupcakes that are actually zombified creatures that were possessed by a mysterious virus and you get a gloriously ridiculous video game plot that kinda works...you still with me?

π° "The First-Ever Retro Slot Machines Review" π° #RetroGaming
There’s a side of retro gaming from the arcades scene that probably doesn’t get enough coverage and that is Retro Slot Machines from the ’80s and ’90s.
Whilst taking a retrogaming trip down memory lane my first thoughts will normally drift towards the likes of the Golden Axe arcade and Outrun games of the ’80s and the NBA Jam cabinets of the ’90s.
But nestled at the back of every arcade was and still is those fruit machines from the past that are forever etched in our memories with their flashing lights and awesome artwork emblazoned across the front of them.
As a kid, I was allowed to play the 10p slot machines and the 2p OXO machines and then as I grew up and visited pubs and bars more often I would play a few goes on the pub and kebab shop machines whilst waiting for my mates to get the drinks in.
So, which retro slot machines get my nostalgia gland working overtime?
Well, let’s see if I can give you 5 of the best retro slot machines from my childhood and teenage years so as you can see how far we’ve come from these retro slot machines right up until today’s online slots and you’ll also see how very similar to online slots these legends of the slots world are!

The year is 2075. I am 97 and high octane, anti-gravity, full combat motorsport is all the rage and The Pacer World Championship is where it’s at!
Pacer is clearly inspired by its successful predecessor WipEout. But does this play homage or does it do what Weekend at Bernie’s 2 did to Weekend at Bernie’s? Let us find out…

π️π₯π️ Accident | EARLY ACCESS | Review | PC | "It’s nice to be making situations safer and administering first aid." π️π₯π️ @PixelHunted @games_glob #IndieGames #GameDev
You’re pootling down the road and realise something is wrong up ahead. There’s been an accident: cars turned into jagged balls of metal and glass, fuel dripping ominously onto the asphalt, the pained groans of those cut to ribbons… and ominous silences from other vehicles.
Nobody else is around - time to step up the plate and save some lives.
But how? Where do you even begin?

♌️♈️♋️♓️♊️ This is the Zodiac Speaking | Review | PS4 | "In short, I was in the zone" ♌️♈️♋️♓️♊️ #zodiacthegame @zodiac_the_game #IndieGames #GameDev
Game Title: This is the Zodiac Speaking
Platform Reviewed: PS4
A cool idea based on real-life crimes marred by esoteric implementation and some relatively serious technical issues.
In a happy coincidence, I had watched David Fincher’s 2007 slow-burn thriller Zodiac only weeks before receiving This is the Zodiac Speaking for review and, having a close friend harbouring dark obsessions with serial murderers, I was already acquainted with the heinous, unsolved crimes that plagued California in the ‘70s.
In short, I was in the zone.

Anshar Studios’ Gamedec was completely unknown to me until I stumbled across it on a press release. After reading briefly about it, some keywords stood out; ‘cyberpunk’, ‘combat-free’ ‘isometric’ all terms that ruffle my hair and feed me good bourbon.

π₯ Necromunda: Underhive Wars | Review | PS4 | "The World is A Dark Place" π₯ @NecromundaUW #IndieGames #GameDev
The world is a dark place. As winter creeps in (the clocks have just gone back meaning it’s pitch black by 2pm), I am drawn to darker games. No Animal Crossing escapism for me. No, it’s dungeon crawling and shadowy places all the way. And you get plenty of that in Rogue Factor’s Necromunda: Underhive Wars.
