Black Mirror Review

Intrigue, a curse, an old mansion and family secrets are the idyllic setting for a graphic adventure set in a remote location in Scotland during 1926. No, despite sharing a name, THQ Nordic's Black Mirror has nothing to do with the series of science fiction currently produced by Netflix, but yes with the trilogy The Black Mirror of Future Games that debuted in 2003. The new delivery by KING Art is a reboot, not a faithful remake, which shares background and starting point.

Outcast - Second Contact Review

It was a video game ahead of it's time; a masterpiece that laid the foundations for a new way of understanding action adventures ... and yet it did not triumph. Fortunately, the classic of Appeal comes back to life, almost 20 years later, with a remastering that meets the minimum but leaves a bittersweet taste.

Mystik Belle Review

Mystik Belle's story puts you in the shoes of Belle MacFae, a student at Hagmore College of Sorcery, who was practicing a spell of fire on the night she was startled by an unknown individual, causing the potion of the Walpurgis night to spoil. That is why you will have to go through all the places of the school (catacombs, laboratories, the forest ..) and face different enemies and bosses in order to fulfill your mission and that a tragedy doesn't occur.

 You are going to find a simple story but with pretty funny dialogues that will liven up the game. In addition, the game has two endings that will depend on obtaining all the parchments of arcane knowledge. It's not that the end differed much but it is worth getting them all to see a fairly epic combat.

Road Rage Review

There are good, bad and games, there always have been and always will be. But believe me, that with Road Rage, the new creation of Team 6, it almost opens a new category: the horrible games. I feel tremendous respect for any worker, whatever the specialty, and more so if it is related to this sector. But not to say that this new production Xbox One is deficient in all it's aspects would be lying.

Ben 10 Review

It seems that it was yesterday when he burst onto the small screen of millions of homes across the planet, but it turns out that it's been a whopping twelve years since the birth of Ben 10. Since then, the character and his related series have not evolved much, although yes, it has been staged in terms of animation techniques. In 2016, Cartoon Network premiered the new series with a more casual tone and in this 2017, it's second season was broadcast, and it is on this last series that inspires the game that concerns me today.

Now, with the character in low hours, it seems that the children's television chain tries to revive the series at all costs with the facelift of the new series, with a new batch of merchandising products and, how could it be otherwise, with a new game that takes the title Ben 10. The show begins with the young protagonist going camping with his cousin Gwen and his grandfather Max. However, the excursion is not going to focus on toasting little marshmallows in the fire of a bonfire or going to bathe in a celestial lake, but they will have to deal with hordes of villains with dark intentions. And a little more interesting is the script, which only serves as a trigger and motor for Ben and his alien friends to move forward and not leave aside the fight against evil.

de Blob Review

Although today comes as a breath of fresh air to our consoles, the concept of de Blob is not original, but part of a flash game whose creators THQ bought the rights. Still, I must admit that his style of play fits perfectly with the philosophy of Xbox one, offering a very creative title and, above all, tremendously positive, which has been made accessible to all types of audiences.

And it's not surprising, because it is a fairly veteran company, and knows how to do their job to take full advantage of this situation.
