I've been having a bit of fun with Battlestation: Harbinger for the last few days, and I've actually found it to be a pretty good mix of mix of roguelike, action, strategy and more.

Are you ready to crap your pants? Layers of Fear has graduated Early Access to become a full member of the horror club.

A look at the first act of the crowdfunded point-and-click adventure game; now available on the Humble Store and Steam.

XCOM 2 has been well reviewed for Windows, but exactly how is it on Linux? I spent many hours defending the earth to find out.

Roguelikes have a tendency to be really complex games with tons of depth and thick user manuals. Sproggiwood is a game that tries to do away with the complexity but still offer an enjoyable roguelike experience. Let's check it out!

Panmorphia made its Linux debut this weekend and is a game that draws my mind to the Myst and Dream Chronicles series of games.

Arcen Games, makers of AI War and The Last Federation, have put out their latest game in a surprise release last week. In a deviation from their usual formula, they've chosen a more action-filled approach while still keeping some of their usual elements. I took a look to see if it's any good.

Order of the Thorne: The King's Challenge is the latest game from Quest for Infamy developer Infamous Quests, and is the first game of a planned anthology series, now available on GOG, Itch.io, Humble Store and Steam.

The Bug Butcher isn't the usual sort of game I am into, but something about the artwork and idea behind the game hooked me in. I took a look, and here's my findings.

A boxing tycoon management game named 'Punch Club', it was too fun an idea to pass up on. I took a look and here's my findings.

Holy Potatoes! A Weapon Shop?! That has to be one of the wackiest titles I've ever seen, and the developers kindly sent in a key for me to give it a go.

Bound By Flame is an ambitious Action RPG developed by French development studio Spiders and published by Focus Home Interactive. It was originally released in 2014, but the Linux version was released out of the blue earlier this month. Thus far, it's the only title from the developer that's been released for our platform.

I recently acquired a new PC and 4K monitor thanks to a family member, so here’s some thoughts on the Asus 4K PB287Q 28 inch monitor.

Developer Matthew Brown's new game is similar in style to his popular Hexcells trilogy, and seems like another great buy for fans of Japanese style logic puzzles.

Dreamfall Chapters Book 4 has been released, accompanied by a major engine update and the time seems apt for a review. I previously covered the game’s performance improvements, and thanks to those, the game can now be discussed on its own merits rather than get bogged down in the numerous performance issues.

There are lots of so called roguelites on Steam but recently a real roguelike classic called ADOM, or Ancient Domains of Mystery, made its way to Steam. Let's go check it out!

Some good news about the whole Steam Machine parade, OC3D did a pretty long review of the ZBOX NEN SN970 and they liked it so much they gave it an award.

Unmechanical has been extended with a new chapter, adding more than an hour's worth of new puzzles and exploration, and the Unreal Engine 3 powered game is now officially available for Linux.

For the purposes of this review I will be concentrating fully on the single player campaign. I did have a quick peek at the DM tools but found them lacking for creating anything other than simple dungeon crawls or completely linear adventures.

I honestly can’t remember the last time I was this excited about any hardware. It may only be a gamepad, but the Steam Controller is so very different it’s refreshing.
