'Beers & Boomerangs' is very... Australian

 Hey everyone! It's your lad, Galaxy Gaymer!


Virtual reality games have quickly become one of the most popular types of games in recent years. These can be either the most hyper realistic games on the market, or even better, the whackiest. The game I'm about to tell you about is definitely the latter.




Beers & Boomerangs is maybe the most stereotypical Australian game that has recently been released. The whole premise is that kangaroos are trying to steal your beer, so you have to fight them off with boomerangs. This is all done in VR and is pretty much what people think Australia is like.






Beers & Boomerangs has a lot of references that I appreciate a lot, as it's stuff that is generally Australian and not necessarily everyone would understand. The game starts of super easily but gets incredibly hard as you continue. Despite the game being in a cartoon style, the physics in the game are really impressive, and some are quite realistic even. It's the type of game you will probably be laughing at the whole time you play it.




I really believe Beers & Boomerangs is more for Australians than anything. While anyone could probably enjoy playing it, I feel it would be even more humorous in our eyes with how dramatized it is. I also really think for the price that anyone could enjoy it if given the chance to play it.

'Succubus With Guns', a Third Person Cuter... I mean SHOOTER

Hey everyone! It's your lad, Galaxy Gaymer.


Third person shooters are one of the most popular genres of game at the moment. While there are so many choices, it can almost be overwhelming and hard to pick a third person shooter that stands out. However, sometimes you just need a little sprinkle of cuteness.




Succubus With Guns is a third person arena shooter where you play a demoness who needs to defeat people who have turned themselves into zombies. There are six levels, and the game is short but sweet. As seen commonly, you can also pick a difficulty. To complete each level, you just have to survive all zombie phases and defeat all the bosses in each level.





The graphics of Succubus With Guns are really nice to look at. I played this entire game in one sitting, and honestly, it was 100% worth it. The gameplay was also fun but not overly challenging initially, but I did find myself playing many hours of the endless mode and loving it even more.






I recommend this game for any third person shooter lover that loves some cute girls. The character design in this game is immaculate, and I think a lot of people would enjoy the physics it has too. I also think it's an absolute steal at $10 as there was a lot of working clearly put into this game. Go and give it a try.

'As Far As The Eye', Management, but make it Beautiful

 Hey everyone! It's your lad, Galaxy Gaymer!


Management games are by far one of my least guilty pleasures when it comes to gaming. It feels like you're really achieving something when you play this type of game, all from the comfort of wherever you want to play it. These games can also open up such a wide variety of possibilities within the games and their mechanics.




As Far As The Eye is a charming nomadic style turn-based city building and management game that has just come to both Xbox and Playstation. The player literally plays as the wind and the objective is to guide the tribe known as the Pupils who need to reach the center of the world. You will need to manage things such as their lives, resources and buildings, which allows them to grow wise in many ways, such as through agriculture.




As Far As The Eye is truly stunning. As soon as I launched this game, I was in awe of the sheer beauty of what this game had to offer. It plays so smoothly, and all the mechanics are easy to understand after a short period of time. This game is filled with both beautiful characters and environment, and just had me absolutely falling in love with it from the second I started it.




I recommend As Far As The Eye for those that need a relaxing yet thought provoking management experience in their life. It's complex enough to make you really think about what to do, but it's simplistic enough that you won't get a headache from working out all the mechanics. It's a game for everyone.

'In The Rural Village of Nagoro' is Simply Beautiful

 Hey everyone! It's your lad, Galaxy Gaymer!


In recent years, a lot of game devs have remembered the importance of quality over quantity again. While some games that take you hundreds of restless hours to finish that are amazing, there can be some super short games that can be just as amazing and just as beautiful. These games also tend to be some of the really underrated games that deserve all the love in the world.




In The Rural Village of Nagoro is a beautiful anecdotal game based on the real-life village of Nagoro. This village use to be filled with hundreds of young people when the main character was young. This game explores a lot of the history of the village, and the story of it being supported by the forest and dam construction industry.




The art style of In the Rural Village of Nagoro is truly beautiful. It's so simplistic, yet so affective at the same time. This complemented the reminiscing so well and made it all feel so peaceful. The relaxing music also compliments the simplicity of this game so much. Although the game is only around ten minutes long, there's just something about it that makes me feel like it was longer, in the best way.





I recommend In The Rural Village of Nagoro for everyone. It's both educational and breathtaking, while having a quite sombre feeling to it simultaneously. I have played it twice already, but I will definitely play it again, just purely for the experience it holds.

'Nitro Kid' is the Deck Builder for you

Hey everyone! It's your lad, Galaxy Gaymer!


In a world of everchanging genres, I feel like one of the recently most utilized and evolved genres lately has been the deck building genre. I truly believe an amazing developer can take what would be a niche genre like this and make it something memorable and beautiful. Today's game has done just that.




Nitro Kid is an incredible roguelike deck builder where you need to craft your deck in order to gain new abilities and skills. This is all done with charming 8-bit style graphics and feels like an amped up arcade game with much more detail than meets the eye initially.




The soundtrack for Nitro Kid is phenomenal and a huge standout part of the game. I found myself being also completely entranced throughout my playthrough of the it, and it was largely due to the fact that this music is truly a thing of beauty. This also complimented the attention to detail in what would usually be simple graphics so well. I also do love that you can pick your special agent out of three options, each one being better than the last.




I highly recommend Nitro Kid to pretty much anyone. Not only is the deck building aspect of the game highly enjoyable, but the game is difficult enough to be fun, but not so difficult that you want to immediately quit. I have already put 8 hours into this game, with many more to come in the near future.

'The Walking Zombie 2' is a Must Have

 Hey everyone! It's your lad, Galaxy Gaymer!


Zombies have become a mainstay in the first-person shooter genre for as long as most of us have been alive. Zombies are generally evil, so we need to fend them off, making for some really amazing games that have come and gone over the years. It's rare for a zombie related game to catch on and be memorable, but today's game has effortlessly done just that.






The Walking Zombie 2 has recently hit the Nintendo Switch console, and let me tell you, it's a truly incredible experience. Like many zombie games, you are in a post-apocalyptic world, and you need to fight off all the zombies trying to attack you. You have been in this situation your whole life. It's a first-person shooter and you can follow all kinds of main quests and side quests.




I really love the charming graphics of The Walking Zombie 2. Despite the general premise of the game, it is not so realistically gory that it's off-putting. I also found myself loving the charm of a good old fashioned single player game as it feels like every game these days is online and multiplayer. It was a really nice change of pace.




I recommend this game for all lovers of the FPS genre. The Walking Zombie 2 is not the most difficult game in the world, but something about the less realistic graphics calls to me as I can personally only handle so much gore in a game. It's also mega cheap and you'd be making a huge mistake not to get this one.

'Pnevmo-Capsula' is That Damn Good

Hey everyone! It's your lad, Galaxy Gaymer!


Adventure games come in all shapes and sizes. Some adventures follow people, some follow animals, and some even follow inanimate objects. I feel like no matter what the premise of an adventure game may be, the genre itself is such a plethora of possibilities in all shapes and sizes.




Pnevmo-Capsula is a very casual adventure game where you are a mail cart, and you get to travel through an alternate utopian world. This game is set in the 1930s to 1960s and this entire city is connected by one track system made up of rails and pipes. You have to overcome various obstacles, and it is not a long game, but it is definitely a cozy one.




While the premise of Pnevmo-Capsula may be an odd one at first glance, it is definitely the type of cozy game I needed in my life. The graphics are quite stunning and pretty realistic which I really admire. This game is so simplistically mind-numbing in the best way, and I instantly needed to experience it again after my first playthrough. This game is just that damn good.




I recommend this game for literally anyone honestly. It is both stunning and stimulating and I just feel like it is the type of game anyone could enjoy. I for one have played this game twice, and I would happily play it again without getting bored. Who knew a premise like this could create an absolute piece of art like Pnevmo-Capsula?

'Silenced: The House', an Instant Classic

Hey everyone! It's your lad, Galaxy Gaymer!


Visual novels have got to be some of the single most beautiful games on the market. Whether they're a nice little slice of life, or a suspenseful horror visual novel, they always seem to be nothing short of amazing. Today we'll be talking about the latter, as I introduce you to a beautiful, yet terrifying horror visual novel.




Silenced: The House is a visually stunning horror visual novel where you get lured to an abandoned house in a forest by a famous person in your school and you have to survive the night in the house. There are spirits and all kinds of creepy things in the house, so this task is not easy. There are also multiple endings depending on which route you pick in particular sections, which is always a treat.




A huge standout in Silenced: The House is by far the absolutely breathtaking art style that is used. Since this game was released with Halloween days away, its autumnal colour palette used just makes it feel weirdly cozy, yet still creepy. The only part of this game that is coloured differently is the blood, giving it an even more eerily terrifying affect. From the second I started this game; I knew I was going to love it. This game is truly an instant classic.




Horror fans and visual novel lovers alike would probably love Silenced: The House. It's not an insanely long game, but it makes up for that in the multiple endings, and again, the undeniable beauty of its art style. I think this is one that should be on everyone's radars as it's so unique and had me in awe throughout my entire playthrough.

Shooting your way to Freedom in 'I, AI'

Hey everyone! It's your lad, Galaxy Gaymer!


Gone are the times where all shooters feel the same in the gaming industry. It seems nearly every shooter has their own unique features, but some almost feel like a game you could have played in the past, in the best way of course. By far one of the most beloved types of shooters in mine, and many other people's hearts is one that almost feels like you're playing on a fancy arcade machine, all from the comfort of your home.




I, AI is a fantastic action sci-fi shooter where you control a self-aware AI who was created at a military station that was developing weapons. Throughout the game, your goal is simple, escape the lab and gain the freedom you yearn for. You get to control a little ship and take down enemy ships by shooting them throughout 20 amazing missions.




While the premise of I, AI is not exactly unique, the real highlight is in the gameplay itself. You get to upgrade your superweapons as you progress which really brings out the collectathon lover in all of us. The weapon and ship upgrades quickly become the most important part of the game to make your grand escape, and not upgrading will just make your life a lot more difficult. I also just love the general vibe of this game; it feels really relaxing for a shooter which I personally really admire.




I highly recommend I, AI to people who love a good old-fashioned shooter with an arcade vibe. I feel like this game feels so familiarly refreshing, and it tackles a format that is so loved by gamers. I played this game in one sitting, and I just instantly had the urge to play it repeatedly and outdo myself. Between the decent but not too high difficulty and all the customization options, I, AI is definitely criminally underrated already.

Doja Cat Joins the Best 'House Party' on the Internet

Hey everyone! It's your lad, Galaxy Gaymer!


Adult only games seem so niche in the world of gaming these days. There are so many games that almost try too hard to be child friendly and all inclusive, but sometimes that can take away all the fun parts of a game. Sometimes the very best types of games are unique and really pushy boundaries to a whole new limit.




House Party is a first person 3d adventure game that is literally all about being the life of the party. All of your choices shape what you experience in the game, and there are thousands of different stories and quests you can partake in. It is also an adult only game, so keep that in mind. This game already sounds exciting, right? Well, it just got better.




The Doja Cat Expansion has recently been added to House Party, and it is a must have expansion, for an even more must have game. Without spoiling much, the addition of Doja to the game is maybe my new favourite part of the House Party experience. It just makes it seem that little bit more exciting, and her star power will hopefully draw more people in to loving House Party as much as I did. Doja Cat is hopefully the first of many future amazing collaborations for the game.




I highly recommend both House Party and the Doja Cat expansion to any adults that are looking for a game that pushes the envelope. The fact that I didn't get to this game sooner almost feels criminal, and I am so glad I got to experience it. It's also considerably cheap for what feels like an unlimited amount of content. I would also love to see some future updates to this game to amp it up even more somehow.




What is your favourite adult only game? Comment down below! Also, a huge thank you to Eek! Games for sending me a copy of the game and the expansion to review! I love it a lot and will definitely be diving into the... special ad-ons down the track to review.

'Arise: A Simple Story' is an Experience, not Just a Game

 Hey everyone! It's your lad, Galaxy Gaymer!


I am a firm believer that some games are truly a work of art. Some games can truly take you on a full-blown adventure with little to no dialogue, and that's just absolutely beautiful to me. The game I'm about to talk about is no exception.




Arise: A Simple Story is a stunning story-driven 3d platformer that follows a man that has recently died. It follows the man as he goes through the story of his life, essentially reflecting on everything, almost as if "walking towards the light". The gameplay goal is to change the environment around you to make it from start to finish of all of the beautiful levels, such as making snow melt to float higher, or making the flowers bloom to assist you.




The art style of Arise: A Simple Story is truly breathtaking, all while tugging at your heart strings. The story is so deep and unique, this is complimented by the gameplay being thought provoking, but not overly difficult. I found myself entranced by this game the second I picked it up, and now I am truly in love with it. I also love that the music is more for ambience than anything yet is truly beautiful in its own right.





Arise: A Simple Story truly tugs are your heart strings, and |I can't recommend it enough to people that love a beautiful, yet personal feeling experience. That's right, this is more than a game, it's an experience. If you have not yet witnessed the beauty of this game, you are truly in for a treat.

Lead them to Recovery in 'Oxygen: First Breath'

 Hey everyone! It's your lad, Galaxy Gaymer!


Survival strategy games have got to me one of my favourite genres of all time. There have been so many takes on this genre that it's hard to keep up, but I truly think there are more hidden gems in it than any other. I just love seeing the evolution of these games. I love to see what new mechanics are added, and what classic mechanics are kept. It's so exciting.




Oxygen: First Breath is a brilliant survival strategy simulation game that follows a place hit by natural disaster, and it is the players job to essentially recreate and rebuild civilization itself. This is all while you manage and research new features and buildings to be able to create the safest, but most high-tech environment possible.




I feel like being able to basically lead civilization to recovery is such a cool concept that is showcased in Oxygen: First Breath. The actual graphics of the game are so eye catching and so reminiscent of so many amazing games that were similar, but not quite THIS iconic. I feel like this game could truly concrete itself into the legacy that is the strategy survival genre.




I feel like Oxygen: First Breath is also the perfect entry point into games like this. There are so many games that may be conceptually similar with their mechanics, but this one is a true standout for sure. I really think it has a bright future, and the creators of it should be super proud of themselves.

I Wish I Was A 'Rhythm Sprout'

 Hey everyone! It's your lad, Galaxy Gaymer!


The rhythm genre seems pretty straight forward at first, right? You press buttons to the rhythm of the music, and you win, right? Wrong. The genre is well and truly the most creative genre around, with some of the most amazing interpretations and twists.




Rhythm Sprout: Sick Beats & Bad Sweets (or just Rhythm Sprout for short), is an incredible rhythm game where you fight bosses, go on an adventure and much more to the rhythm of the original soundtrack within the game. You play the main protagonist, the rhythm sprout, and you have to help the king by visiting the counts house as he isn't returning the kings calls. It's kind of like a Project Diva game with combat in my mind.




The visuals of Rhythm Sprout are so insanely adorable and vibrant, and this includes all of the notes you need to hit to progress. While sometimes it may be hard to keep up with rhythm games, this one is difficult, but not so difficult you want to rage quit. And the soundtrack is phenomenal and makes you want to play the game all the way through just to witness how amazing it is.




Rhythm Sprout may actually be the perfect game for someone to try out the rhythm genre as a whole. It's both bright and bubbly, and instantly had me hooked. I truly think this adorable came could capture anybody's heart and really draw them in. It's truly a standout of the genre. I even wish I lived in this world just because it's THAT bubbly.




What is your favourite rhythm game? Comment down below! Also, of course a huge thank you to the amazing folks over at tinyBuild for sending me a copy of this game to review! I adore it!
