Necromunda: Hired Gun Review: Doom, Dogs, (Grim)Dark
We haven’t had a good single player 40k first person shooter in such a long time. Depending on your opinion of Fire Warrior, we’ve never had one. Necromunda: Hired Gun changes that spectacularly.

Biomutant Review: A Confusedly Chimeric Creation
Biomutant, appropriately, feels like the hybrid blend of so many existing games. But there’s more than a few evolutionary dead ends to deal with in this flawed creation.
NUTS Review: Satisfyingly Solid Squirrel Surveillance
NUTS is a superb example of how a single well executed mechanic can mean an indie game punches well above it’s weight.
Hades Review: Pure Peloponnesian Perfection
Hades is exceptional. Supergiant Games’ latest work excels in every area possible. An absurdly polished mix of morish combat, note perfect music, humanistic writing and textbook worthy narrative design.
Star Wars Squadrons Review: Delightfully Detailed Dogfighting
Star Wars Squadrons is not a sequel to the classic Rogue Squadron games. Or even the more direct inspirations and more classic X-Wing or TIE Fighter. Instead, it’s a much more simple package. A chaotic, multiplayer focussed 5v5 dogfighting game that feels amazing, when it works.

Geek Errant Recommends: Gang Beasts
Gang Beasts is a comedy focused physics driven arena brawler game. It’s also one of the best local multiplayer games that you can play with friends.
Geek Errant Recommends: Mount and Blade Warband
It’s so easy to get lost in Mount and Blade: Warband. A game that offers you a world of politicking and trade and system driven combat. One of those games where systems drive everything that’s interesting about the game.
