Cairn Review – Survive the Climb The advent of the climbing game is relatively new with broad sides of the spectrum split between the somewhat authentic but narrative focused Jusant to the more hardcore simulation based New Heights.

Game Review: Millennium Runners (PC) Nintendo continuously ignores its fanbase when we say that we want a new F-Zero game, leaving other companies to fill the void. This is one such instance, as we are given Millennium Runners, a game that looks like F-Zero, but plays like Wipeout. Can this game give us a healthy dose of nostalgia while offering [...] The post Game Review: Millennium Runners (PC) first appeared on The Outerhaven.

Highguard: The building blocks are there, but the execution must be spectacular Take the time to decide for yourself. Highguard has the makings to be a fun entrant in the shooter space, but after a rocky launch Wildlight Entertainment has to be on top of its game.

Dragon Quest VII Reimagined Review – Searching For Adventure My relationship with Dragon Quest VII is a weird one. I love the Dragon Quest series, but I disliked Dragon Quest VII.

Game Review: Dwarves: Glory, Death, and Loot (PC) Roguelites are fun, but what happens when you cross one with a side-scrolling auto-battler and theme it around dwarves? You get Dwarves: Glory, Death, and Loot. Of course, with any roguelite, it’s all about repetition, replayability, and the overall fun factor. Can this game deliver something unique enough to stand out amongst the many others [...] The post Game Review: Dwarves: Glory, Death, and Loot (PC) first appeared on The Outerhaven.

Code Vein II Review: A Beautiful but Flawed Evolution of the Anime Soulslike Code Vein II builds on the original with flashy combat, deep character customization, and an ambitious open world filled with gothic style and emotional storytelling. New systems, expanded build variety, and a striking time-bending narrative give the sequel a bold identity, while its stylish cast and dramatic presentation remain series highlights. However, performance problems, uneven enemy variety, and technical rough spots hold it back from reaching its full potential. Even with its flaws, Code Vein II remains a compelling and visually memorable action RPG for players who enjoy accessible Soulslike combat with strong anime flair.
