Six years after its release, I’ve finally played Gravity Rush. And it’s an absolute belter.

Review: SpiritSphere DX (Switch)
It’s hockey crossed with Zelda and a dash of Street Fighter II – and it’s a lot of fun with a friend.
Review: Moonlighter (PS4)
Moonlighter is a dungeon crawler mashed up with a retail game – and it’s utterly fantastic.
Review: The Banner Saga 2 (Switch)
The Banner Saga 2 improves on the battles of the previous game, but like the first one, it’s really all about the story.
Review: Pode (Switch)
Pode is a co-op Nintendo Switch game with a cutesy looks but fiendishly difficult puzzles. And you can hold hands. Awww.
Review: West of Loathing (Switch)
Comedy stick-figure RPG West of Loathing has made its way over to Switch, with all the funny walks and googly-eyed horses intact. And it’s a absolute beaut.
Review: The Banner Saga (Switch)
Stoic’s beautifully written Nordic saga has finally found its way over to Switch, and the storytelling is as electric as ever.
Review: Lake Ridden (PC)
An intriguing, narrative-driven puzzler, Lake Ridden harks back to the heyday of Myst as protagonist Marie searches for her lost sister.
Review: Super Chariot (Switch)
The ghost of your dad is badgering you to lug his coffin to a suitable burial spot. Welcome to one of the Switch’s most unusual and brilliant platformers.
Review: The Fall (Switch)
The Fall has been out for a while, but this eerie tale of an AI spacesuit on a desperate quest to save its ailing occupant has now found its way to Nintendo Switch. And it’s still really good.
Review: The Adventures of Elena Temple (Switch)
The Adventures of Elena Temple painstakingly recreates the feel of playing a game from the 1980s on a Game Boy or Apple II – complete with blurry bedroom backgrounds. Welcome to the new nostalgia.
Review: The Witch and the Hundred Knight 2 (PS4)
It’s repetitive, admin-heavy and ridiculously sexualised, but for a small niche of players, The Witch and the Hundred Knight 2 could be a lot of fun.
Review: Frostpunk (PC)
As temperatures plummet in the middle of the Victorian age, you’ll need a heart of ice to decide who lives and who dies.
My Thrones of Britannia review for PCGamesN
The latest in the Total War line is a wonderful retelling of the story of Alfred the Great. Although if you’re feeling unpatriotic, you can smite Britons by playing the Vikings as well.
Review: Jotun: Valhalla Edition (Switch)
Jotun has arrived on Nintendo Switch – so now you can slay beautifully hand-drawn Norse gods on the bus. Praise Odin the All-father!
Review: The Swords of Ditto (PS4)
This beautiful ‘micro-RPG’ from One Bit Beyond may look cute, but it holds a fearsome challenge. If your character dies, they’re gone for forever – and you lose almost everything.
Review: Flinthook (Switch)
Who can resist the allure of becoming a gun-toting, hookshot-wielding space pirate? The Switch port of Flinthook might be the best yet, simply because you can take it with you everywhere.
Review: Burly Men at Sea (Switch)
Three brothers set off in a boat to find adventure – and every 30-minute playthrough is entirely different. Yep, it’s a charming Choose Your Own Folk-Tale Adventure.
Review: Midnight Deluxe (PS4)
This golf-like puzzler for PS4, Switch and Vita is entertaining, but it feels out of place on the big screen.
Review: Last Day of June (Switch)
What if you could go back and change the past? Last Day of June is an intriguing game all about reclaiming a lost love, and fixing what went wrong.
