LEGO Horizon Adventures Review (PS5)
Horizon Zero Dawn and Horizon Forbidden West are two unbelievably good games that brought amazing open-world adventure and a strong lead character to life. Both have been trendsetters for two generations of consoles with the good threat of a third on the…horizon. Puns aside, while we wait for the third to be developed, developers Studio Gobo and Guerrilla have stitched together a go-between game c...[Read More]

Shin Chan: Shiro and the Coal Town Review (PC)
One of the toughest parts of parenting in a video game-driven family is figuring out what exactly is age-appropriate content for your kids. Giving them content that has themes of violence and mayhem, like Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim might prompt some questions and cause undue stress for a young gamer. Giving them something like Tetris might bore the tears out of them (no, seriously), as kids these day...[Read More]
Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered Review (PS5)
There are a few games that I enjoy going back to regularly and playing through. Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim is one, as I love spending a December being a whack-a-doodle around that landscape. There is something very wintry about its snowy, dangerous environments. Reminds me of Christmas. With magic. The other big one is Horizon Zero Dawn, a game that connected with me the first time around during the ...[Read More]
Unknown 9: Awakening Review (PS5)
In a world with Call of Duty and Spider-Men, where sequels reign supreme, an injection of creativity and newness is sometimes necessary. I love it when developers and publishers invest in new ideas, and even more so when those ideas pan out to something no one knew they needed. Those are good times. I believe that Unknown 9: Awakening from developer Reflector Entertainment Ltd. and publisher Banda...[Read More]
God of War: Ragnarök Review (PC)
Our own Ben Sheene declared God of War: Ragnarök on the PlayStation 5 as perfect, even if it didn’t shift or differ too far away from its predecessor. It brought a solid middle act in a trilogy while adding more depth and context to its characters. While the stakes were bigger, the exploration was certainly more sizeable than the first, in its intentions to fit nicely into place with the first gam...[Read More]
Astro Bot Review (PS5)
It seems like ages ago that we were unboxing the first PlayStation 5 and testing out the many nuances of its controller with a glorified tech demo called Astro’s Playroom. Filled with squeaks and innocent gameplay, Astro’s Playroom may have unintentionally started a need for more of Astro’s adventures and made the small dude an icon for the Sony PlayStation brand. Like, a Crash Bandicoot icon from...[Read More]
Five Nights at Freddy’s: Into the Pit Review (PC)
Okay. Hear me out. Just for a second. Maybe…just maybe…this is what Five Nights at Freddy’s should have been like from the start. I know, blasphemy, but I would have played the hell out of the series if they had all been like this. Five Nights at Freddy’s: Into the Pit from developer Mega Cat Studios is a major shift in how FNAF is played. Instead of a first-person horror, it’s a 2D-ish adventure ...[Read More]
Indiana Jones and the Great Circle – Preview (Hands-off)
This past week, Digitalchumps was privy to a preview from Bethesda Studios and MachineGames Studio about their game Indiana Jones and the Great Circle. While the preview was hands-off, which I’m sure will change very soon, we did get some great insight about the game’s gameplay, timeline, and how it was trying to balance what makes up a good Indiana Jones adventure. Now, what we didn’t get during ...[Read More]

Cat Quest III Review (PC)
As a reviewer, occasionally you will run across a piece of media you might have assumed the worst about, but then it turned out quite the opposite. This happened to me with the movie Paddington 2, a film that Warner Bros. sent us for review years ago and which I put off until the day before release to review. It doesn’t happen often, but when it does it usually is a profound and satisfying experie...[Read More]
