WarCraft Adventures: Lord of the Clans – Green and Mean [Review]

After many years of indecision, it was finally time to try the unreleased version of WarCraft Adventures: Lord of the Clans. It’s one of the games that made my Top 10 Saddest Game Cancellations, but it’s part of a rarity of cancelled games that’s actually playable with a complete story—thanks to having its beta leaked. The ever great modders and tinkerers of the PC gaming scene have restored it to a playable version, which is how I now got to ultimately play it. So, is it a long-lost tragedy that should have been released, or was it the right decision by Blizzard to drop it? Read and find out!

REPLACED is out!

REPLACED was just released on Gog and Steam, in which I bought a copy on Steam. I wasn’t entirely sure at first, but I figured I needed some dystopian cyberpunk in my life—and well, I enjoyed the demo. I have been playing for about two hours by now, and my first impression is positive. It seems to be a well-defined cyberpunk world set in the 80s—and the story has that conspiratorial vibe that I love.

Who knows if the story will hold up until the end, but so far it has been intriguing. The visuals are spectacular for a 2D platformer, leaning hard into Blade Runner -esque aesthetics. The gameplay, the jumping and the free-form combat is fun as well, and I can only assume it will become more and more difficult to survive the brawling of death. You will find the release trailer below!

Fort Solis – Mystery Abandoned [Review]

Put on your best space boots, because we are in for a walking-sim on Mars. Fort Solis can best be described as an extremely cinematic Telltale-type of game, with even less gameplay, but arguably better presentation. I don’t mind the occasional walking sim if the story is good—so the question stands: Is Fort Solis worth it?

The Expanse: Osiris Reborn – Gameplay trailer [Trailer]

I’m a few days late to the party, but here we finally have a gameplay trailer for the upcoming RPG The Expanse: Osiris Reborn. Now, I’m not entirely convinced it contains enough gameplay to technically qualify as one, yet what little is shown is pretty darn good. It looks like the modern Mass Effect game that we never got, but we all yearned for. The only thing that earned a strong dislike from me is the floating health bars, so I really hope they make an option to turn that off. 

Overall, it’s looking very intriguing, essentially what I want from a pop-a-mole in space. Not to forget, the Expanse universe is an excellent space opera setting that is similar to the universe of Mass Effect (in tone), so the devs have plenty of cool stuff to pick from. Check out the trailer after the click!
