Awesome roguelite FPS. Movement, gun-play, classes and talents trees are amazing. 10/10 recommend!

Early Access Review
Whilst Realm Royale may lack the depth of other Battle Royale titles it has enough variation through the various abilities & upgrades to keep the gameplay interesting whilst adding an RPG element.

Ultimately it's a game that's colourful, entertaining, challenging yet accessible and well...fun! Me and my daughter have been playing since release, laughing and cursing along the way.

As a Free to Play game I would urge everyone to give RR ago. Spending money won't give you an edge but it may make you look a little fancier.

The game itself is very enjoyable and if you enjoyed the first game you'll enjoy this however the constant crashes, especially in Lamansk, make the game unplayable. Especially frustrating once your 20+ hours in.

Simple yet complex roguelite game. Do not be deceived by the graphics there is a wealth of strategy under the surface...it's also very hard!

An interesting dungeon crawler that looks simple form the outside but is surprisingly complex once you get below the surface.

Lots of developer support and several 3 DLC's add to the replay value.

Oh and it's hard, beatable but hard!

Alan Wake is one of the best survival horror games I've played, it's like being in the Twin Peaks TV series.

Visually the game is very impressive and it's easy to find yourself just enjoying the panoramic views; well maybe not so much during the night as you'll be too busy trying to avoid the Darkness and running panic stricken towards the nearest light source.

The brilliance of this game is two fold. I've never played a game that has made me so tense to play, this game made me jump and if played in the dark I guarantee it will scare you. The daylight scenes are such a relief, a chance to catch a breath, calm your nerves and suck it up for the next dose of horror!

Secondly the storyline, and the way it develops, is superb. Its driven by cut scenes, character interactions and lost texts all of which are really good. The texts are particuarly interesting as sometimes they foretell events that are yet to happen which in turn increases the suspense as you find yourself waiting for the bad thing!

Alan Wake is an excellent game and should be a definate addition to any library, I'd say you WILL enjoy it but you'll probably be too scraed to do so!

Amnesia is a puzzle game in the survival horror genre whereby the key is to avoid the monsters rather than attack them whilst solving puzzles along the way to drive the storyline forward.

For me there were insufficient puzzles and so few monsters that they had little impact upon the overall game. The atmosphere is initially haunting but after awhile the background noises just becomes white noise and you find yourself spending a good deal of time wandering around in the dark which detracts from any oppurtunity to take in the games visuals.

As a result I found that the game was mainly trek through numerous, dark, brown tunnels; it was a relief to get to the sewers for a change of scenery. Perhaps though I was being overly conservative with my tinderboxes & lantern oil.

In summary Amnesia is worth a play through, the puzzles are enjoyable and piecing together the storyline is interesting however I found the parts in between to be lack lustre with uninspiring visuals that made moving from point to point to be a chore. I do not envisage another play through of this game albeit I'm led to believe that the custom storylines and a wealth of user mods add significantly to the longevity of the game.

For me if you want puzzles go for Myst, if you want horror Alan Wake does it so much better.

Takes some getting used to but a very good game with an enjoyable campaign/skirmish mode. No overly keen on the multiplayer as it tends to be fast speed, spam unit tactics.
