+ Decent sound effects.
+ Easy to understand controls.

The Ardor ANC headphones from Kiwi Ears are a fantastic audio product. The understated design will appeal to music lovers who hate RGB. Moreover, the substantial case is stylish and robust and great for commuting or going on holiday. The vegan leather and fold-flat design are also great for conscientious and clumsy users. In addition, the audio is phenomenal. The immersive range of tones and balanced bass will impress even the toughest audiophile.

Revenge of the Savage Planet is a fantastic Metroidvania Sci-fi adventure. It can be enjoyed alone or locally and online with another. The drip-fed mechanics, exploration elements, and vibrant worlds are a joy to experience. Though the action can sometimes feel overwhelming, this shouldn't put you off. Accordingly, it is a gem of a game and a must-play experience.
+ Superb level design.
+ Brilliant drip-fed mechanics.
+ The story is funny and interesting.
+ Excellent controls.

Frane: Dragons’ Odyssey is a dated experience that should have been captivating and tough to put down. Unfortunately, that isn’t the case as it is far too basic, and a lack of guidance causes frustration. Alongside this, you can mow through your opponents with ease, and every quest lacks reward or difficulty. This action RPG was developed by EXE-CREATE and published by KEMCO. Unlike other KEMCO RPGs, this one is sadly lacking. Yet, despite its many shortcomings, there were a few glimmers of light.

Schedule I is as addictive as every Class A drug available. Once you pop, you will not be able to stop. Consequently, this game should come with a health warning! I’ve wasted many hours and spent many a late night cultivating weed and baking Meth. Though I normally frown upon such actions, I adored my time as a small-time dealer. TVGS developed and published this drug-dealing simulation title. It is both a single-player and online multiplayer game, and excels as a consequence.
