Brash Games

The level design is flawless, keeping even the most responsive player on their toes and leaving you always hungry for more. It has addictive qualities which can take up hours at a time as “only one more level” becomes 5 levels later.

The game just wasn’t quite what I expected it to be. It’s also a shame that it’s so short.

Nebulous is not a bad game. In fact it’s pretty decent when compared to other games in the genre. But it’s not so amazing as to warrant the $15 price tag and compared to many other games in the genre, it’s rather short. And let’s not forget that the gameplay is a bit boring because of the stop and go style.

ReCore is an incredibly promising title. Its characters are rich and entertaining, and its combat plays very well for the most part. But, even after an eventual patch to fix the load times on the Xbox One, it will still be half a good game and half an incredibly boring grind.

No one ever joined my public game and I never found anyone’s to join. Not the games fault in a way, just means not many people are playing it online. There is nothing about the game that is bad, it’s just a little above alright. Lacking in features and simple, it’s a fine game to play. That’s it. Just fine.

When you battle a boss, frantically whittle its health down to zero, with your party’s health hanging by a thread, it’s hard not to punch the air with delight — it’s just a shame that the rest of the design philosophies within the game weren’t a little more robust, and not solely designed to simply pander and attempt so hard to titillate.

Ray Gigant is a massive let down. Its slow pace at the start doesn’t help its cause but its inability to ever really excite the player or give any enthusiasm what so ever about the games battles or its characters hurts it.

Overall, the game is fairly average – it lacks game modes such a story mode to help understand the characters that the gamer is playing as and when jumping around there appears to be a delay from input to output, the game appears to be a bit limited to being so small and there is local multiplayer so if you want to play with a friend, then it is doable whereas some random person around the world is not going to happen – lastly, there are so few people that appear to play the game so it is difficult to find a match.

Dear Esther: Landmark Edition is an experience that has held my imagination for days after finishing it. It is beautiful yet haunting, sad yet inspiring. It may be short, but it is perfectly paced, and you owe it to yourself to experience this game, it will leave you breathless.

Overall the game experience provided by Laser Disco Defenders is fantastic, and will definitely be a fixture on the first page of my Vita’s wall, everything just fits together perfectly. It is incredibly challenging whilst remaining fun.
