Hirogami on PlayStation 5 is a game that immediately draws attention with its distinct theme: a world made entirely out of paper, inspired by the traditional Japanese art of origami. Developed by Bandai Namco Studios and published by Kakehashi Games, it mixes action-platforming with puzzle-solving, giving players a hero who can fold himself into different forms to overcome challenges. It’s a concept that feels both charming and fragile, just like its papery setting. The result is an experience that shines when it leans into its creativity but doesn’t always hold its shape when it comes to execution. Continue reading “Hirogami review (PS5)”

Rogue Factor’s Hell Is Us, published by Nacon, sets out to be more than just another action-adventure. From its opening moments, it’s clear that the game wants to challenge not only how you play but also how you reflect on humanity itself. Set in a war-torn country scarred by both civil strife and supernatural calamity, it blends an introspective narrative with a semi-open world where exploration is just as important as combat. It’s a bold ambition – and while the results are uneven, they’re never uninteresting and always captivating. Continue reading “Hell Is Us review (PS5)”
