Jack Axe Review - Mario-like Platformer With an Axe to Grind
Axe throwing has been pretty trendy over the last 2 or three years, in the States at least. There are facilities where you and your mates can go and get sloshed while practicing your overhead axe-hurling technique. To be honest, I've never seen the appeal of it, I'd rather stick to my ninja stars. But when Jack picks up the sacred axe, imbued with power and capable of being wielded only by the strongest men, she unlocks some sweet new moves that make for a really fun evening with or without your mates.

Tails of Iron Review | Nintendo Switch/Playstation/Xbox/PC Gameplay
Tails of Iron from Odd Bug Studio and United Label has captivated me, not only with its wonderful, progressive world-building, but the story, music, combat, everything is just well-implemented and polished. In fact, as soon as I started thinking “Man, I wish the combat was a little more difficult”, I started getting my butt handed to me by some of the side-mission bosses. Tails of Iron releases on September 17th for PC, Nintendo Switch, and all Xbox and Playstation consoles.

Dice Legacy Review - Nintendo Switch/PC Gameplay
If you’ve joined any of my streams, you’ll know I’ve got a decent board game collection proudly displayed behind me, so when I learned of Dice Legacy being made by DESTINYbit and Ravenscourt, and advertised as a roguelike survival city builder with a board game-style twist, I jumped at the chance to review it. And it had me rolling dice faster than an addict at a craps table.
