The first thing I thought when I started to play Concept Destruction was that we finally had a successor to a game I loved over 25 years ago on PS1 called Destruction Derby. If you are old enough to have played that game and loved it as much as I did, then you will be as excited about Concept Destruction as I am. You can read my full review about this game exclusively at http://www.gamingcouchpotato.co.uk/2020/05/review-concept-destruction-on-nintendo.html

This battle in Yakuza Kiwami 2 made me laugh, One of the final bosses in the entire game challenges me, asks if I am ready, well I just figured out a new and rather brutal special move with a very long stick, let's just say, he was the one who wasn't ready! OUCH #YakuzaKiwami2, #Yakuza, #YakuzaKiwami, #Japan, #Gaming, #Xbox, #XboxOne,

Thought I would start a game of #BlairWitch on #PS4 I do have it on PC somewhere, and probably on Xbox too, but I have never played for more than a few minutes, so I thought I would give it another shot. It’s 1996. A young boy disappears in the Black Hills Forest near Burkittsville, Maryland. As Ellis, a former police officer with a troubled past, you join the search. What starts as an ordinary investigation soon turns into an endless nightmare as you confront your fears and the Blair Witch, a mysterious force that haunts the woods… A STORY OF THE HUMAN DESCENT INTO DARKNESS From the creative minds behind the critically acclaimed Layers of Fear, experience first-hand the toll that fear can take on the mind in an original story inspired by the cinematic lore of Blair Witch. FIND THE WAY THROUGH THE HAUNTED WOODS With just your loyal dog Bullet by your side, navigate your way through a cursed forest that warps and distorts both time and space. YOUR SANITY AGAINST HER CURSE Stand against the horrors of the Blair Witch and the decaying sanity of a man burdened by his past.

Playing #GraviFire on #Xbox for review, and thought I would share a few levels to get the idea of the gameplay. Fun little puzzle game, review to come later today. www.gamingcouchpotato.co.uk GraviFire is a logic game that mixes the mechanics of movement and gravity. You need to put all the objects in the right places by controlling the character and the force of gravity.

I have always quite liked The Telltale Series of games, each one like a little animated movie but with great point-and-click adventure elements. Easy to play. Batman is one the best ones. Some of the cut scenes are great! #Batman http://www.gamingcouchpotato.co.uk

So one of the interesting things about the #Yakuza games are the mini games! Completely separate to the main game, and a lot of fun in their own right. #YakuzaKiwami has a great little Bowling simulator! www.gamingcouchpotato.co.uk

From #RendahGames comes #HyperballTachyon, a fast-moving 2D platform game, where you control a ball as you bounce and jump through increasingly difficult levels. The basic idea of the game is to get from the start point to the finish line in as fast a time as possible. At first things start out pretty simple, but soon you will face various obstacles including sand traps, water, spikes and so on. Your ball can do a basic extra jump, but in the differing levels you will find things that help you and things that hinder you. For example, a collectable that will allow you an extra jump, or columns of wind that will either push you along, or hold you down. This game is all about learning the physics of the ball, and using it to your advantage. There are lots of little hints while you play, and although the levels can be quite tricky, there is a strong feeling of accomplishment when you do finally get it right, and then the added interest of trying to beat not only your own score, but also trying to climb up that global leader-board and get as close to the top as you can. I notice that the game makers, Rendah Games, top every leader board. So, if you can manage to beat their time, then you know you have just completed a level in epic fashion. You can change the appearance of your ball, and there are secrets to collect. And with a small file size for a game, that will probably play on almost any computer or laptop, this is a simple platform game that you should seriously consider taking a look at. The Good Simple but fun graphics, easy control system, (much easier using a gamepad than the keyboard). Challenging levels with high replay-ability. The Bad I did notice a couple of graphics glitches, and the odd dodgy physics, but these are really small issues that will be fixed in future patches, I am sure. Overall A really fun, simple platform game, that is highly addictive. Definitely recommend this to your collection, if you are a fan of physics-based platform games. I score Hyperball Tachyon on PC a solid 9/10. I really enjoyed playing, and I am going to keep playing to beat those high scores! #Puzzle #BallBounce #Gaming #IndieDev #IndieGame #Gamer

www.gamingcouchpotato.co.uk If only all games opened with such an epic scene like this! #Yakuza0 is an action-adventure video game developed and published by Sega. It is the sixth main entry in the #Yakuza series and a prequel to the original game. Yakuza 0 is an action-adventure game set in an open world environment and played from a third-person perspective. The game takes place from December 1988 to January 1989, in Kamurocho and Sōtenbori, fictionalized recreations of Tokyo's Kabukichō and Osaka's Dōtonbori areas respectively. The player controls series protagonist Kazuma Kiryu and recurring character Goro Majima, alternating between the two at predetermined points during the story.

In December 2012, Kazuma Kiryu left his past as a "Legendary #Yakuza" and his place of peace in Okinawa. He now spends his days as a cab driver in a corner of Fukuoka's red-light district, hiding his true identity. All for the sake of fulfilling the "dream" of an important person. However, a disturbing atmosphere begins to drift through the supposedly well-balanced society of the Kanto and Kansai yakuza, emerging as a plot to drag all of the yakuza organizations in Japan to war. In order to protect the "dreams" of his loved one, Kiryu is drawn into the vortex of battle once again. This is the story of four men and a girl chasing their "dreams" in five major cities in Japan, presented on the largest scale of the series yet. Complete The Dragon of Dojima’s journey. #Yakuza5

One thing I have missed in recent years, is the kind of game that just relaxes you, but still offers up a challenge. A Glider's Journey seems to fit right into that genre. You play using the mouse or a gamepad, there is no accelerator or brake, you just glide. The idea of the game is to get from your starting point, to the finish which is identified as a landing spot. The problem being that gliding alone won't get you there, so you need to collect power ups that are conveniently placed around the flying area, each one gives you enough power to reach the next. Miss one or two and you will run out of power and crash. Luckily for me, there is a "very easy" mode, whereby the physics of the game are simplified, and you will never run out of power, so you are free to glide along to your hearts content. Miss a power up, just do a U-turn and pick it up. Want to just fly around for a bit and listen to the cool chillout music, you can do that too. But at the end of it all, you do need to reach the end of the level, if you want to unlock the next level, and you also need to collect enough of the power ups to activate the landing spot. There are 15 levels in total, all of various landscapes and locations, and depending on how quickly you pick up the game, you should be able to finish it all in a few hours. The Good Easy game to play, I liked the simple polygon graphics. And the music really is very relaxing. The Bad There are some moments when you have to fly underground that you can easily lose your bearings and not know which way is up or down, but this is solved when you have tried the level a few times. Overall Although the game is quite short, it is fun, and if you truly want the most relaxed experience, just put it in Very Easy mode, and just chill out. I score the game a solid 8/10 For more exclusive Reviews check out http://www.gamingcouchpotato.co.uk​ And follow us on Twitter at http://www.twitter.com/gamingcouchspud​ And like us on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/GamingCouchPotato Follow me on Youtube https://www.youtube.com/c/TheJonDonnisShow And like us on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/gamingcouchpotato #AGlidersJourney #Chillout #Relaxing #Gaming #Flying #Simulation #Review #Gamer #IndieGaming #Indie

If you grew up in the 1990s, there is a good chance you played a top-down racing game called Micro Machines. And when you load up and start playing Tinker Racers for the first time, that is exactly what will come to mind. But Tinker Racers is much more than just a MM clone. It has its own personality. The general idea of the game is that you are in control of a Mini RC racer. And you are racing around in your house. On top of kitchen tables, in the office, on the floor etc. The track itself might be drawn with chalk, or ketchup, it doesn't really matter how, just that you can. The view is top down as previously mentioned, although that view itself is not set, and you will automatically zoom in and out somewhat depending on your location to other racers.
