Nivalis Nights might not have any combat, "but that doesn't mean it's a cosy game," so says its lead writer

I also just prefer a bit of friction in a game, something to put the edge on occasionally, even if there is cosiness to be found within it. And according to the lead writer of Nivalis Nights , Thomas Welsh, you can find some of that cosiness, it just isn't a cosy game, and you have to put some work in to get it. Read more

A Crimson Desert exec thinks critic review scores were lower because they didn't have enough time to play it, and boy oh boy I wonder whose fault that is
Crimson Desert looks like a perfectly fine game. I've not played it, and I don't intend to, so my perspective is based predominantly on trailers and reviews from my industry peers. Which, as it happens, also generally seemed to reach a consensus of "yeah, it's fine." Sibling site European Gamer certainly seemed to think so , as did others. But if you ask the European CEO of developer Pearl Abyss Lybee Park, the difference between critic and user scores comes down to the fact that the former didn't have the "the fair chance to explore" the game in full during the review period.

Resident Evil inspired, cannibal dungeon crawler Medium Rare has a delightful art style trick up its sleeve: stock photos
I've spoken here before how the ultimate way to rope me into checking your game out is by having a nebulously designed Strong Vibe, a look that immediately sets it apart before I even know what any mechanics might be, and Medium Rare, a Resident Evil inspired dungeon crawler RPG about rescuing your wife from a human meat factory, has a deliciously nasty vibe.

Review: Retroid Pocket Duo Lite - a Nintendo DS Clone That Doesn't Play DS Games Very Well
All the polish, none of the power. I’ve tested dozens of emulation handhelds, and the Retroid Pocket Duo Lite ( $149 ) was by far the hardest to review. It’s been a frustrating ride over the past few weeks — not because it’s bad, but because the hardware is actually good. Until it isn’t. I will admit that I have an unfair bias toward anything resembling a Nintendo DS. I still have my high school DS Lite on the desk in front of me, and the library has such a special place in my heart that I’m more than willing to put in the extra testing time.
