ScourgeBringer | PS4 Review

ScourgeBringer is a delightful little post-apocalyptic roguelike indie. It tells the story of a tribe of people plagued by the judgment of technologically advanced invaders called the ScourgeBringer. These ships which range from obelisks to pyramids (sound familiar???) in shape house portals to another dimension which the tribe enter in search of answers as to why they are being targeted. Most of the tribe who have entered have never returned. Thus they send in their greatest warrior, Khyra and her bot companion Peppy, in a last ditch effort to see if they can find out what is going on.

Devil Slayer - Raksasi | PS4 Review

Devil Slayer Raksasi is one of those surprise hits console players will have likely never seen coming. I personally never heard of it until my go to sources mentioned it was releasing this week. It was previously released on Steam, but has now been ported to both the Nintendo Switch, and PlayStation 4 consoles. What the game is, is a blend of Dark Souls style combat, The Binding of Isaac dungeon crawling, and Asian mythology with lore that unfolds in a similar fashion as to Soulsborne titles. It sees you taking on the role of several different characters that are continuously reincarnated to take on the Keybearer. Each character wields their own unique weapon making them more akin to classes, and also has a unique back story that ties in with their place in the historical timeline presented in the tale. 

Liberated Enhanced Edition | NS Review

Not many game developers dare tread on the touchy topic of a dystopian future these days, especially through a game that paints current real world trends as harmful to society. With "Liberated", and this enhanced version of it we are introduced to a secretive organization of rebels known as the "Liberated" who are trying to undo the damage one of their own has done through the creation of a social credit system. Through comic books, animated comic book panels, and 2.5D platforming focused gameplay elements you take on the role of key characters as they try to infiltrate, and take down the all oppressive system of governance. Ultimately utilizing stealth, murder, and hacking skills as a means to get what needs to be done, done. As you read through the plot, listen to the newly added voice-overs, and play through branching paths with multiple choice options you will discover the fate of the Orwellian inspired government, and the Liberated rebels.
