SCP: Fragmented Minds plunges players headfirst into the chilling, often incomprehensible world of the SCP Foundation, a collaborative fiction project detailing the containment of anomalous entities, objects, and phenomena. This PC title attempts to translate the complex and often terrifying lore of the SCP universe into an interactive horror experience, and while it doesn’t always achieve perfect cohesion, it delivers a genuinely unsettling and often captivating journey into the unknown.

Blood Bar Tycoon, developed by Clever Trickster Studio and available on PC, presents a darkly humorous take on the tycoon genre. Instead of managing a theme park or a railroad empire, players are tasked with building and running a successful blood bar for vampires. This macabre premise offers a unique spin on familiar mechanics, but does the game truly satiate our thirst for engaging gameplay, or does it leave us feeling drained? After extensive playtime, delving into every corner of…

One of my favourite times of the year is when Take-Two updates sales figures for Rockstar Games. GTA5 has sold to 210m people and Red Dead Redemption 2 is a relative flop at only 70m. Yes, a mere 70m copies. So why does it feel like it was abandoned? Don’t get me wrong, nobody is going to complain about the amount of content in that game. It’s a colossal world with systems upon systems, and we’re still discovering new things…

Crime Scene Cleaner. The title itself is a fascinating juxtaposition. We’re used to crime scenes being meticulously investigated, not cleaned. This concept forms the intriguing core of the game Crime Scene Cleaner, a title that throws players into the often-overlooked aftermath of criminal activity. Instead of solving the mystery, you’re tasked with erasing all traces of it. But is this morbidly curious premise enough to sustain a compelling gameplay experience? Let’s dive into the grimy details. The Premise: More Than…

“Stars in the Trash” isn’t just a game; it’s a charming, hand-drawn love letter to classic animation. This delightful platformer tells the story of Moka, a pampered housecat who yearns for adventure beyond the confines of his comfortable home. The game’s greatest strength undoubtedly lies in its stunning visuals. Every frame is a work of art, reminiscent of classic Disney and Don Bluth animations. The vibrant colors, fluid character animations, and meticulously detailed environments create a world that is both…

Modders released a full remake of Vice City in Grand Theft Auto IV. It might just be one of the biggest labours of love in gaming, so of course Rockstar tried to shut it down. Within about 30 seconds of installation, you’ll know why. There’s something amusing about s company as large and respected as Rockstar (or parent coming Take-Two) feeling threatened by a few of their fans. But after showing the project on YouTube, the Vice City NextGen Edition…

The Emberlands, once a vibrant and bustling community, has been shrouded in a…

I’ve never been a man who needs much of an excuse to replay Sonic Adventure, but here’s a good one anyway. The Dreamcast classic has RTX Remix support – and it’ll test your PC like a near 30-year-old game never should. I’ve played around with it a little bit, and I’m impressed by what the pathtracing I’ve seen. This is an absolutely new way of seeing the game. Some parts work better than others. Mystic Ruins, for instance, is much-improved…

Instead, The Operator excels in its immersive world-building and intricate puzzle-solving, offering a unique blend of detective work and surveillance gameplay. Story and Setting: The game unfolds in a near-future where technology has blurred the lines between privacy and security. As a new recruit, you’re tasked with investigating a series of increasingly bizarre and ...
