Battlestar Galactica: Scattered Hopes review – an iffy take on the sci-fi series that had me contending with Cylons, sabotage, and STDs
Battlstar Galactica: Scattered Hopes review: An engaging roguelike that quickly shows itself to be a bit robotic. Developer: Alt Shift Publisher: Dotemu Release: May 11th, 2026 On: Windows 10 and up From: Steam Price: £20.99 Reviewed on: Intel Core i7-8700, 16GB RAM, Nvidia GeForce GTX 1070, Windows 11 The Gunstar Scimitar, one of the few battleships to escape the Cylon attack on Caprica, has a problem. Yes, it is the only military vessel standing between a pursuing robot army intent on wiping out the last of humanity and an unarmed civilian fleet, but the safety of the civvie ships that…
The main barrier to entry with Pokemon is, of course, the Nintendo Switch. If you want to play any of Game Freak’s classic creature catchers, you’ll have to splash out the cash for both the games themselves and a new console every few years. It’s a tough pill to swallow. We’ve seen a million and one pocket monster spinoffs, with Palworld going viral back in 2024. But Coromon, the latest addition to Indie Pass’ ever-expanding roster of indie games, modernizes Nintendo’s classic formula, adding a swathe of cool new mechanics for you to explore. Coromon takes place in the world…
WWE champ Cody Rhodes says Nintendo sent him a cease and desist for wearing a Zelda Triforce on his boots
Current WWE undisputed champion Cody Rhodes says Nintendo sent him a cease and desist for wearing the Triforce on his boots.During his first run at WWE in the late 2000s and early 2010s, Rhodes occasionally wore the Triforce symbol from The Legend of Zelda games on his boots.Now, in the latest episode of his podcast What Do You Wanna Talk About, Rhodes explained to fellow wrestler Kit Wilson why he used to do it, and revealed that he was eventually asked to stop.Showing Wilson the Triforce tattoo on his ring finger, Rhodes joked “I live that shit, dog”, before explaining:…
Subnautica 2 hit 5 million Steam wishlists days before its early access launch, so "every player" gets a special gift
We’re just days away from aquatic survival game Subnautica 2 launching, and the team’s crossed another major benchmark just in time for early access. The sequel has now moved over the five million mark for wishlists on Steam, an impressive achievement, and developer Unknown Worlds Entertainment is giving everyone a reward.Unknown Worlds devs recently posted about it on the Subnautica 2 Steam page. “Ever since we announced Subnautica 2, the excitement, theories, and support from the entire community has been incredible to watch. As we get closer to Early Access, your enthusiasm has continued to blow us away every single…
Oblivion's persuasion wheel has spawned another wacky gamejam, cue sentient cheese struggling to three-point turn gracefully past dancing French rats
“Mon dieu…LOOK AT ZE SIZE OF ZAT PARMIGIANO!” shout the rats as they shuffle in graceful yet unquestionably hip fashion. They’re right. The giant cheese wheel I’m trying to roll past them to the safety of a fellow named the Mouseman isn’t small. That’s probably why its sheer girth is being conveyed by a handy circular status indicator which draws its form from The Elder Scrolls 4’s infamous persuasion wheel. This is just one way the devs taking part in the latest Wheeljam have managed to shoehorn Oblivion’s unique minigame interfaces into their own little projects.
In a not-so-surprising twist for the platform that puts creative power into the hands of its players, you’re going to want these new Brawl RNG codes if you’re to stay ahead in this Bloxified version of an iconic app. Brawl RNG is “a fast, clean idle clicker packing RNG drops, upgrades, rebirths, and battle simulations.” Assuming the clean part refers to its UI and not its assumed lack of curse words, this one could have legs. Given Supercell’s recent tweets, maybe ChillyTea Studios really does need to hammer home its game’s lack of bare feet in the first sentence. Here…
StarFox 64 – also known as Lylat Wars – has loads of levels to discover and replay, but true mastery comes from unlocking medals on each stage.Medals show that your gameplay on a given stage was exemplary, but the Hit requirements for some of the Medals are much higher than you might be expecting.Collecting all the Medals for every stage requires mastering enemy spawns and maximising your damage output so you can nail the Hit requirements we list below.Medal requirements for all stages – SF64Scroll down for a full breakdown of how many Hits you need for a Medal in…
Kingdom Hearts 4 fans are so desperate they think a Tokyo Game Show teaser hints at impending news, but I wouldn't be so sure
Kingdom Hearts 4 hopefuls are once again back with the hopium as a Tokyo Game Show teaser has folks convinced that news is on the way very soon, but I’m not quite so sure.Earlier today, the official Tokyo Game Show Twitter account posted a mysterious tweet – a whole bunch of question marks in a box, followed by tomorrow’s date (May 12) and the words “COMING SOON…” Below that, though, is an image that’s gotten everyone talking – it simply says “LOADING…” with a familiar-looking font and a green bar below it.It didn’t take long at all for folks to…
The strange parade of Stardew-style horror farming games continues with Besmirch, in which there is far too much smiling
Here is what I think happened: at some point circa 2020, a cabal of game developers with very long fingernails and offputtingly white teeth got together in a backroom beneath a hideous effigy of a concerned ape, sacrificed a few ‘doves’, and declared in voices like slamming coffin lids that henceforth, all the descendants of Stardew Valley and Harvest Moon shall be horror games. It’s the only rational explanation for today’s strange glut of creepy ploughing simulators. The latest to catch my eye is Besmirch, out in early access right now, in which you’ve been hired by some Baron (I…
There are around seven people that look exactly like you on this earth. Doppelgangers, they’re called. Keira Knightley and Natalie Portman. Margot Robbie and Emma Mackey. Me and that other me that exists somewhere. T1’s League of Legends academy team, however, has perhaps done the impossible: it hasn’t just found a Faker doppelganger – I’m pretty sure it’s cloned him. Faker is the best League of Legends player – and perhaps esports professional – ever; I don’t think anyone’s going to fight me on that. It makes sense, then, that you’d want two of him – maybe even three of him; the…
