Thomas Was Alone is a heartwarming tale involving multiple blocks which despite their differences, come together to become more than their individual parts.

A truly diverse cast not seen since the Last Jedi's desperate attempt to check off a politically correct cast of races and gender, TWA brings us characters we can all identify with. From the sheer jumping joy of the long block, to the cynical misery of the square making Eeyore look like he has just scoffed all of the pills left in the Glastonbury grass - between them we share their highs and lows.

The tale progress quickly yet efficiently and manages to provide a satisfaction to the story, both traits sadly missing from the Game of Thrones Season 8 finale.
However like this there is significant loss of life and like some form of special Olympics for the Tetris universe continues to introduce us to a whacky variety of blocks we had not considered possible.

I would recommend this game.

Superb game which gives the feeling of a huge bottomless ocean below you, quite daunting and gives a strange sensation of unknowing what is lurking in the depths, especially in VR!

I have largely enjoyed Civ 6 so far, it perhaps isn't the complete package yet, like most Civ releases it tends to require a couple of expansions before fully rounded out and realised to its full potential.
Having said that, they have transitioned nicely to the new city tile system, with districts and wonders built separately outside of the single city tile, an idea quite foreign to previous Civ titles!

Multiplayer seems quite stable, without desync issues like 5.
As usual you will likely find you start more games than you finish but it's a good game for chilling out for several hours over Discord as you put the world to rights whilst growing your Civilisation.

The updates made to the game are slow but meaningful, adjusting the outright unreasonable AI from the initial release to a more strategic opponent and using the Civ's likes and dislikes system to a greater effect.

Overall it's a game i look forward to seeing how it evolves, perhaps with a world congress like system to spice up the late game, and with more Civilisations added over time to help bolster the numbers!

This game is a true classic giving the ability to fight in massive Medieval battles that still is unrivaled in terms of army numbers today.
Giving you a range of army types including European type Knights, Arabian units from a Saladin type army, and more Steppe like horse archers.

The mod scene is fantastic for this game and gives you options for a great 'quality of life' range of improvements to the base game, I can highly recommend the Florus mod which adds in options to the game which make the vanilla version unplayable once experienced.

Multiplayer is always great fun also.

The sequel will be eagerly awaited!

Google Earth VR is an incredible experience giving you the ability to visit places you might never be able to see, or places old - revisting childhood or old memories of areas where you once grew up.

The areas displayed in full 3D give the sense that you are truly flying above a city, especially when the human scale option is turned on in the settings.

This is great for demoing VR to people who are perhaps not gamers but would like to experience what VR has to offer, and it does not fail to wow viewers!

Rocket League must be one of the best games in recent times.
The feat of producing a game which is fun on pickup regardless of skill and with a skill ceiling which rewards and amazed you with the acrobatics you become capable of is quite something!
When you consider that is tied with a developer who don't price the skins and new cars unreasonably and who release the main content maps/new modes for free we have been really lucky with this one.

One of those games you are always going back to and can have a great laugh online with friends as you try to score those incredible aerial goals.

Bravo Rocket League, bravo.

Amazing game, got so many hours out of it considering how little I paid for it, its just ridiculous!
Still yet to complete it, still things to do and finish it off.
Hard to explain the game as its just utterly insane, but for the love of all that's Isaac, just buy it!!!!!!

Really scary stuff this, played about 5 hours in just under a year! Says it all really.

Best played in the pitch dark with headphones on without a doubt, sound turned up!
Also quite amusing to play at the same time as friends so you can hear each other whimpering in fear.

Decent graphics and sound, good physics in game used for puzzles.
Also has a decent storyline from what I've seen so far with your character finding notes informing him why he is where he is. It is called Amnesia after all.

If this is on sale for around £3 its a no brainer, unless you have a dodgy heart, in which case stay clear!

Enjoyed playing through this, sorta 'God of War' style game, but feel pretty badass playing as one of the 4 horsemen of the Apocalypse! War!
