Chocobo GP – Review | Better Than Expected
In a surprising revival of Chocobo Racing, Square Enix has released Chocobo GP – a kart racing game featuring some fan-favorite figures from Final Fantasy, along with some new entries. With some players raging over microtransactions, is there a gem shining under some controversial decisions? Or should you instead go for the near-simultaneous release of […]
Pacer – Review | Breaking the Sound Barrier
In the vast pantheon of video game genres, the humble racer has stood proudly amongst gun-toting behemoths and leviathanic plumbers. Over the years the genre has split into many sub-genres, one of which is the rarely discussed, yet fondly remembered anti-gravity racer. Pioneered by the likes of F-Zero and honed to a mirror sheen by […]
Little Witch Academia: VR Broom Racing – Review
Flight is a common theme in virtual reality. Usually, it’s in a plane, a spaceship, or even an Iron Man suit. One of the earliest though was the idea of broomstick flight. As early as 2014, Back to Hogwarts appeared on the Oculus DK2 and was followed by several other fan projects and small games. […]
Hotshot Racing – Review | A Return to ’90s Racers
Deja Vu! I’ve been to this place before! Outside the occasional episode of Top Gear giving me a good chuckle back in the day, I’m not a fan of cars.

Kandagawa Jet Girls – Review | Racing on the River
Wild and Wet Racing Girls Kandagawa Jet Girls has teams of two racing their way through the rivers of Tokyo, all aiming to win the Kandagawa tournament. One jetter controlling the jet machine and one shooter, aiming to take down anyone getting in their way. You can follow the stories of these teams and take […]
Overpass – Review | An Off-Road Challenge
I am a big fan of games whereby I can hop behind the wheel of an automotive of some description, rev an engine to breaking point and blitz a track with the refined grace of a decapitated mongoose. The thrill of poorly tackling each corner, likely crashing into every vehicle on the grid, is like […]
Gensou Skydrift – Review
I’d say to rev your engines, but there aren’t any in this rather odd take on a kart racer. Gensou Skydrift is a Touhou themed racing game, where instead of driving karts, characters take turns standing on one another and fly over the ground. This game is currently available for the PC (Steam) and Nintendo […]
