I think the best word to describe Horned Knight is ‘typical’. This is the same retro-style 2D action platformer you’ve seen countless times on the Xbox Store. There is nothing here that you won’t have seen before. There’s even the pixel art that seems to come as standard with pretty much any small indie game

The eagle-eyed readers amongst you may well recognise Akuto: Showdown, and you would be right to.

I will admit that when I initially saw a top-down action roguelite called Curse of the Dead Gods, complete with swords, bows, environmental hazards, and semi-random rewards based on what room you choose to enter next, my first thought was “Hey, this seems a bit like a Hades knockoff.” It turns out, I was completely

Watching the livestream chat for the Nintendo Direct this week, you’d think that 2021 is on a knife’s edge, and whether it plunges into 2020-like despair is dependent on how Nintendo celebrates Link’s 35th Anniversary. Would they release a compendium of every Legend of Zelda ever made: a Zelda All Stars? Perhaps they’d opt for

In celebration of Blizzard Entertainment’s 30th anniversary, we’ve recharged three of the very first games we ever developed — bringing forward all the history, hard work, and love that went into making them — and added a few extras.

I regularly use the columns of TheXboxHub to bemoan gaming naming nomenclature, but #SinucaAttack leaves me at a bit of a crossroads. On one hand, the word ‘Sinuca’ is a clever phonetic spelling of snooker, one of the core themes of the game itself. But then on the other hand, the name as a whole

Aground is a hard game to pigeonhole. The developers, Fancy Fish Games, describe the game as a “Crafting/Mining RPG”, with an overarching story and a goal to work towards. While this is a functional description, the actual game is a lot deeper than this rather dry summary. First launched back in April 2020 on PC

Pretty much since the dawn of time, the video game simulator has had a place; admittedly left to the exclusivity of PC gaming.
