Exploring a corrupted world with isometric Souls-inspired Eitr

In Norse mythology, the word “eitr” refers to a substance that is the source of all living things, yet is also corrupting and poisonous to all that touch it. This was part of the inspiration for Eitr, an isometric action game from Eneme Entertainment, that would fall under the common

Geometric rhythm meets multiplayer mayhem in Just Shapes & Beats

Throughout the Playstation Experience, there was always one booth pumping music, with a single TV that was always occupied. After listening to it for the better part of a day, our curiosity finally gave in and our team wandered over to play. It was the first of many sessions that

All city orc fluff and nonsense — The Elder Scrolls Online: Orsinium review

Oh Tamriel, you beautiful land of stone and sky, why do you tear me apart this way?  Ever since I first took off into Vvardenfell’s wild lands in the Elder Scrolls’ third chapter, I’ve really wanted nothing more from a video game than to explore more and more

Peering into the abyss with retro action platformer Chasm
