“I feel Big Pharma would be much more satisfying if I was playing the PC version, as this port hasn’t been done very well, with its mediocre graphics, clunky controls and confusing menus.”

“In a genre of game that sets the bar quite high, Race With Ryan is a disappointment if taken at face value, but the plus point is that it’s aimed at the very young gamer and their families, so it is making kart racing to a wider demographic then usual.”

“The Fisherman – Fishing Planet is without doubt a game for the angling enthusiast but takes a decent stab at trying to lure a few more fans over to the pastime.”

“A Winter’s Daydream will set you back about a fiver to buy, which to be honest is still a little steep for the lack of interaction you get, so may only be worthwhile if you fancy the easy game completion.”

“Gravity Duck is a good entry level puzzle platformer and ideal for younger players as its not just the concept that’s simple, it doesn’t need a great level of skill for you to breeze through.”

“At first glance, a game that might be fun for an hour or so, you’ll be surprised by the hidden depths of Party Golf. With more customisations that you can shake a stick at, you’d find it very difficult to get bored with this game, and played with friends its certainly one of the best party games available on the Xbox One.”

“uper Blood Hockey is a fun simple game that works well as a single player game for a while at least, until eventually its repetitive nature kicks in, that’s is as long as you master the steep learning curve.”

“If you like this retro style for games, My Big Sister will reward you with a very strong story, with a nice creepy atmosphere and dark sense of humour.”

“Thanks to its rogue like nature, For the King has some replay factor in it, as long as you can psychologically get past the slight grind of having to play the same parts over and over to get deep enough into the game for the variety of scenarios and landscapes to really come into play.”

“The game is a joy to play with friends, is colourful, with a great sense of humour and full of silliness but it needs a bit more for it to become a classic party game.”

“I felt like I’d played this game before with a different skin on it, and its yet another case of a RTS game trying to jump from PC to console and being sold short by the inability to replicate the fluidity of mouse and keyboard in to play with a controller.”

“Spike volleyball has a solid core and some great gameplay mechanics but the whole thing is let down by poor animation and lacklustre presentation.”

“Glass Masquerade delivers more than you think at first glance, and I found it a puzzler that was both challenging and therapeutic.”

“Mutant Football League: Dynasty Edition is a well above average arcade sports sim, jam packed with gory but cartoony violence, making it a worthy successor to the original game.”

“Jack N’ Jill DX offers simplicity in gameplay that works to its advantage to start with, but doesn’t offer enough variety for things to become stale, and is probably best enjoyed in short bursts”

“For now Construction Simulator 2 gives us the chance to drive, dig and build to our hearts content at a less than hectic pace.”
