| 89 72% | Overload (2018) - Rated 12 Oct 2024
"It's a shame this did so badly financially, because it fixes everything that made 'Descent' onerous to revisit (very uneven level and encounter design, threadbare narrative, those god-damn hitscanners) while keeping or improving the sources of its enduring appeal (irresistible central conceit, bangin' tunes, varied enemy roster). There's even some honest-to-God good voice acting in there! Alas, had it come out when the throwback shooter fad was in full swing..."

| 70 5% | The Darkside Detective (2017) - Rated 07 Oct 2024
"Man, this does not put its best foot forward, with writing initially composed of droll-but-not-funny banter that reaches its nadir with a 'Twilight' joke that was already dated in 2017 and has become worse each year since. After that, the game does settle into an amiable and even sometimes charming groove, carried along by amusing and well-structured puzzles, especially in the bonus cases (which sadly are a little less well copy-edited than the main game)."

| 87 58% | Ys Origin (2006) - Rated 05 Oct 2024
"Very tightly designed ARPG with a slightly forgettable but concise script that I suspect feels more momentous to people who have played Ys 1&2. The real standouts here are the gameplay, presentation and setting, which offer a classic dungeoneering experience with a smoothly escalating level of challenge (and little to no grinding!)."
