FBC: Firebreak review (PS5)

Stepping into Firebreak’s version of the Oldest House (that we were introduced to in Control), you immediately sense that Remedy is purposefully trimming the original experience down. Gone are the sprawling metroidvania structure and polished cinematic storytelling of Control, replaced with streamlined, bite-sized “Jobs” – three-player coop missions built for quick, chaotic plays.

It’s not the first game to tackle parkour, but it does aim to go further than most by offering not just parkour-inspired movement, but a creative toolkit of tricks, challenges, and social multiplayer features that make the experience feel more like the sport than a typical game would. On PlayStation 5, it runs well and offers a solid base for a gameplay experience built around momentum and mastery. Continue reading “Rooftops & Alleys: The Parkour Game review (PS5)”

Survival Kids review (Switch 2)

When talking “Switch 2 exclusives at launch”, we bet Survival Kids isn’t the first game people mention – yet that’s exactly what Konami’s latest is. From its vibrant toon-style visuals to the gentle clatter of tools and cooking pots, Survival Kids delivers a low-stakes, co-op sandbox built for shared smiles rather than nail-biting tension. In a world of survival games that demand grit, this title stands out by embracing accessibility, turning the struggle of being stranded into a shared puzzle.
