Mini Review Otxo (Switch) - Think 'Roguelike Hotline Miami With Bullet Time, But Not As Good'

Where Otxo deviates, however, is in its...

Considering it was mostly the work of just one man by the name of Hannes Rahm, Hell is Other Demons was an...
Mini Review Heaven's Machine (Switch) - Short, But Unfortunately Not Sweet
A bullet hellish experience
Heaven's Machine is the first of Super Rare Games’ ‘Super Rare Shorts’ series; brand new indie games only released on the Switch in physical form and only available to buy during a short open preorder window. It's certainly an unusual idea but, unfortunately, this is probably not the start they were hoping for...
