Astral Chain Embraces the Weird to Deliver A Thoroughly Entertaining Experience
Rating: 4.0/5 stars
Whenever we hear about a PlatinumGames release, we can be sure that it will not be an everyday game. The studio has a reputation for taking risks and not shying away from embracing the “weird and we are delighted to experience Astral Chain. The game reeks of flair and style and makes the Switch Exclusive a truly amazing experience. The game is based on a truly peculiar yet fascinating world. The detective-action genre is a common theme amongst this year’s games. However Astral Chain presents its take, incredibly unique and thoroughly entertaining. The game is a Nintendo Switch exclusive and is one of the most anticipated games of the year.
The storyline is based around a post-apocalyptic environment caused by alien pollution. The bulk of humanity is living in the Ark, a future city filled with neon-lights and its own share of Alien problems. The protagonist of the game is either male or female. One of the Howard twins can be selected as the main characters. The protagonist is part of a task form formed to eliminate aliens. The major fighting tool against the fight is Legions. These robots are tethered using the Astral Chain. A link that connects us to our Legion. Having the Astral Link allows us to see the Chimera’s which are the Aliens we are fighting against.
The game introduces an interesting combat system that allows us to control two users at the same time. Due to the innovative approach used in introducing this mechanism, the transitions between the characters is seamless and the changes are rewarding.
Game Combat
The game is full of interesting twists and turns that kept us glued to the screen during our experience. The characters in the game are full of personality despite the lack of flair in one of the protagonists. Due to the quirky and energetic nature of the surrounding characters, the quiet protagonist feels even more out of shape in Astral Chain. Despite this lack of personality, the combat element of the game more than makes up for the shortcomings in personality. The synchronicity between us and the legion, the action is amazing. The studio did an amazing job with creating stylized animations that go along perfectly with the theme of the game. The particle effects and graphics make the combat look insanely amazing. The flawless performance of the game in the hand-held mode makes the game a must-have for any switch user.
The game offers a plethora of legions to choose from and the fighting mechanics ensure that the game never gets too easy. The combat system made us work to make smart choices and rapid decisions to ensure that we got the best out of our Legion. The game is also full of hidden Side Quests and other fun stuff that make it a must-try. Our experience with the game was truly unique due to the gameplay and sheer creativity. It is highly recommended for all Switch users.

Ion Fury Takes a Trip Down Memory Lane to Deliver an Entertaining Game
Rating: 4.0/5 stars
Playing a game in 2019, you expect it to have top of the line graphic, smooth 4K character rendering, high-quality visual sound, interactive menus and the like. Ion Fury takes a trip down memory lane in a way that is surprising as much as it is entertaining. Playing the game feels like having a trip into the 90s with a difficulty level that will make the most proficient gamer feel challenged. The game was highly entertaining due to its storyline and gameplay transitions.
The protagonist is Shelly Harrison and the game was originally planned to be called Iron Maiden however, legal action from the band caused it to be named Ion Fury instead. Even though there is no similarity between the band’s name and the game, the game is named before the protagonist.
Ion Fury is an FPS shooter that brings back memories from the original DOOM era. The game has a lot of 2D model animation objects and the sounds very similar to games from the ’90s. The prime reason behind that similarity is that the Ion Fury is actually building using a gaming engine called Build. The same engine was used for a number of the retro games from the past. One of the best elements of the game is its originality. It does not merely feel like a game that pays homage to the golden era of gaming but truly feels like an original with authenticity.
It was truly mind-blowing for us to play a game of this nature and it truly felt like a blast from the past. We found the game notoriously difficult to play. Maybe it was the years of coddled up gaming experience from playing modern shooters that effectively have smoother mechanisms, health recovery and all sorts of healing mechanisms. Ion Fury has none of these. There is no tips, no health recovery, and no cover-up options. The only assist you can get is turning on the autosaves to allow you to reload the game.
However, despite the graphic limitations and difficulty, the game does not become boring at any point. The weapon options are dynamic and almost all weapons feature alternative fire modes. We personally loved the revolvers and their ability to target multiple people. Each weapon is essential to the gameplay and ammo needs to be used conservatively as it is scarce. Accuracy is also extremely important in the game as the game has consequences for lapse shooting.
The final enemy of the game was too much for us to handle at high-difficulty and we had to turn down the difficulty a notch in order to get to see the ending credits. The ending battle throws enemies of all sorts at you while you’re dangling from a rope. The ending battle summarizes the game; a quirky, fun retro game that does not make things easy for you at any point.

Rating: 5.0 /5 star
Whenever Rockstar Games comes with a new announced release, the gaming community holds their breath for what the legendary publisher has to offer. Overtime, the company has developed a reputation for producing the most groundbreaking games that define the standard for gaming across the world. From the esteemed Grand Theft Auto series to the famous Bully 2, the studio is potentially one of the only ones in the world never to have released a substandard game. When Red Dead Redemption 2 was announced, it was expected to be a good game. However, no one anticipated how truly ground breaking the series really would be.
Red Dead Redemption 2 is truly one of the best games ever released. It truly pushes the limit for the storyline and game boundaries defined in the era. Similar to the Grand Theft Auto V that managed to become the highest selling game of all time. Red Dead Redemption 2 is virtually a flawless game. Through the course of multiple gameplay runs we truly could not find a major flaw in the game.
With Arthur Morgan as the protagonist instead of the expect Jack Marsten, the story telling of the game rivals and surpasses some of the best western TV shows set in the 19th century. The game paints a hauntingly accurate picture of the world. The graphics are breathtaking, pushing the boundaries of the visual displays console can deliver. The game features some of the most intricate storylines all set tactically to interlap at the right points. During our gameplay Experienced the game was thoroughly entertaining across 10 hours of gameplay and remained truly engrossing in all aspects. It is rare for video games to be able to make am impact on a level where they induce true emotions.
Red Dead Redemption 2 is one of the few games I have ever played that truly managed to add emotions. Whether it was exhilarating action sequences or blinding betrayals, the game has an array of surprises and unpredictable turns that will keep you at the edge of your seat. The gameplay is visually flawless. From the shooting mechanics to interactive options, the game truly takes the mechanics introduced in the previous iterations to the next level while introducing new elements.
The old school element is truly make special with the interactive options with animals and environment. As expected of a Rockstar game, RDR2 has ties the music and dialogues perfectly with the character. The characters are perfectly suited to their roles and manage to stand out for themselves. The game is a must try for any fans for westerns and just games in general.
Even though the game is only available on consoles right now, it is soon expected to have a PC version, following a release trend laid out in all Rockstar games to get the most sales. It is very rare to run into a game without flaws, Red Dead Redemption 2 manages to be that while not being shy from taking risks.
Age of Wonders: Planetfall Manages to be a Breath of Fresh Air for Conquest Model
Rating: 4.0/5 stars
Starting Age of Wonders: Planetfall, I had no idea what I was getting into. The description seemed captivating so I thought id give it a shot. I had no idea about the crazy rides I was getting myself into. The game is a spin-off addition in the Age of Wonders series. The game is a combination of everything Sci-Fi, mixing the craziest factors to randomly generated planets mixing them with crazy interesting characters that make the game a must-play the game. From flesh-eating factions to crazy jellyfishes, the game has it all.
The game follows the fast-paced, dynamic style of the previous installments in the series. The Age of Wonders: Planetfall is easily adaptable even for beginners like myself like I found out during the gameplay. The game is familiar to players with experience with the Civilizations series. The game follows the standard steps while initially forwarding the game. Creation of cities after arriving on the planet. Players explore new technologies and explore surrounding areas. Military creation is also a major part of the series. The goal of the game is the elimination of the opponents. The achievement can also be achieved by getting to a world-changing achievement.
The Age of Wonders: Planetfall has a lot of aspects in common with the Classic Series; Heroes of Might and Magic. There are a lot of elements that are common with the Civilizations series as well. The highlighting achievement of the game is the characters that are full of individual personality traits that add massively to the gaming experience. A combination of different skills and resources are mandatory in order to be successful. It takes some time to get used to the different factions and skills. Playstyles can also make a major impact while playing the game. Building alliances is also extremely important during the course of the game and it can add massively to the available advantages. The gain includes Penguins, which makes it a typical Age of Wonders game.
The multi-threaded aspect of the story makes the narrative extremely compelling. Amongst the new additions are the Vanguards who are hybrid human factions. There are also the Dvar. Dvar’s stand out due to their tendency to use explosives and mining. The midgame units can tunnel, which can be an extremely handy skill to add to the mix.
One of the minor shortcomings that I observed during the course of my gameplay was the difficulty in accessing the information available which was an extremely important aspect of the gameplay. Due to the lack of available information, the knowledge of which factions to choose was confusing which led to some awkward moments.
However, despite all the minor flaws of the game, the experience was generally amazing and the landscape and the combination of the different factions and their available skills felt like an amazing mixture which made the experience extremely fun. The Age of Wonders: Planetfall is highly recommended purely due to its visual possibilities which make the experience extremely exciting.
