Gamera: Super Monster (1980)
Shortly after the release of 1971 movie Gamera vs Zigra, production company Daiei collapsed, leaving the series in limbo. Though Daiei was revived in 1974, it took nine years for […]
Review: Kolumno
Available now for Nintendo Switch (£1.79) A beautifully minimalist, vertically minded puzzler, Kolumno is a game which sees you simply attempting to drop a ball into a hole to pass […]
My First Published Writing Work
I can hardly believe it myself, but I’m approaching my 500th daily article on this very blog – and it made me think about how far I’ve come since I […]
Review: Not Not – A Brain Buster
Available now on: Switch (version played), Android & iOS I’ve always been incredibly quick to inform people when they’ve committed the ultimate sin: using a double negative. Though correction can often be met with bafflement and the offender still going on to use phrases such as ‘I didn’t say nothing’ when they mean the complete opposite, it’s something I’m unable […]
Product Review: Gamory & Pumteck Switch Controller (Nintendo Switch Third Party Accessory)
Looking like a cross between the controller that was bundled with ill-fated Android console, the Ouya, and an Xbox One controller, the Gamory Switch Controller isn’t going to win any […]

This has led to […]
Review: Poly Puzzle
Version Played: Switch – Available now (£4.49/$4.99) – Published by: Forever Entertainment There’s a huge amount of puzzle games available on the Switch. Plenty of them boast about how relaxing they are, but in my experience – with my brain often struggling to get to grips with most puzzlers – they can actually be pretty frustrating. Poly Puzzle is a […]
Review: Roll’d
Out: Now – Price: £1.79/$1.99 – Nintendo Switch A strange but oddly compelling little game, Roll’d dumps you into proceedings without telling you anything at all – your little character running along a pathway for…reasons. It takes a few seconds – and a few failures – to truly grasp what’s going on. You don’t control the character at all; in […]
