Review: Blur
Hello there. Today’s game is relatively recent by our standards, but is also no longer commercially available and from a developer that is now defunct. All of which is a shame, because it’s an absolute corker. (I could make a joke here about always preferring Oasis or Pulp, which I sort of am doing anyway, […]
FFG Review of the Year: 2022
Hello. It’s that time of year where we traditionally do a half-hearted round-up of the stuff we’ve covered on FFG. I’m going to eschew the usual small talk about what kind of a year it’s been out in the real world, other than to acknowledge that things are tough for many and to send you […]
Review: World Cup 98
Hi there. Believe it or not, this review was all set to go live at a suitably relevant point last week, but, as regular readers may have noticed, we had a few technical hiccups to sort out. Anyway, the big international footy thing was in the winter this year, for all kinds of dubious reasons. […]
Review: X-Wing
Hello. With a modern tale of an expensive investment quickly destroyed due to a fundamental weakness unfolding as we speak, how about we go back a long time, to a galaxy far, far away (again) and try and blow up the Death Star? It’ll take some doing, though. For me, it’s taken 28 years. Yes, […]

Ah one two, microphone check; one-two, microphone check one-two; microphone checka one-two, tell you what I’m gonna do! Yo yo yo yo yo! It’s ya boy Rik from the F-to-the-F-to-the-G, with a sick new ride comin’ to you from 2005, when they knew how to do it! Y’know what I’m sayin’? [No – and can […]
Discussion: Emily Is Away (spoilers!)
Hello! This is Discussion: [indie game] (spoilers!) – a series which, like Ronseal quick-drying woodstain, does what it says on the tin. [What tin, you say? What’s Ronseal, you say? Never mind! Let’s move on.] Today’s game is Emily Is Away, a 2015 interactive novel by Kyle Seeley. During which, you are whisked back to […]
Review: Star Wars: The Force Unleashed
Hi there. Once hyped as an exciting new chapter of the Star Wars canon, with input from the grand high beard himself, now officially relegated to ‘never happened, sorry’, today’s game is Star Wars: The Force Unleashed. (Not to dazzle you with thrilling ‘behind the curtain’ insight, but I had a more old school title, […]
Review: Manic Karts
Hi there. We’ve got some 90s karting action for you today, plus a bonus feature on its slightly nightmarish music. The game is called Manic Karts. [What did we talk about with these intros, Rik? – Ed.] Ah, ok. Also – how are you? Did you have a good summer? September already, huh? What about […]
Review: Gemini Rue
Hi there. We’re heading to the newer end of our normal reviewing territory today (so about 10-ish years ago), although there are plenty of echoes of older games here, in Wadjet Eye’s sci-fi adventure, Gemini Rue.
