Frostpunk 2 Improves Upon its Predecessor to Create an Immersive City-Builder Experience

Frostpunk 2 takes all the fun and challenge of the original to new levels, while being accessible to all. Here’s our review!

The wait for Frostpunk 2, the sequel to 11 bit studios’ beloved city-builder Frostpunk, is nearly over. Announced back in 2021, it’s been a long wait for New Londoners yearning to get stuck into the next instalment in the gaming franchise. The highly anticipated game has already won Best Gameplay at this year’s Gamescom, and after getting our hands on it, we can see why....

I'm Worried Bridgerton Season 4 Will Make The Show's Daphne Crime Worse Amid Anthony Uncertainty

Bridgerton hasn't exactly done right by Daphne as of late, and I suspect that'll continue when the show returns. Despite being the focus of season 1 (along with Simon), Daphne wasn't in the next chapter at all, even though the events taking place in the story - specifically Bridgerton season 3's ending - certainly would have made an appearance from the character seem relevant.
Although Phoebe Dynevor did return for the second season, her role was significantly reduced, with her only appearing in...

The Mighty Thor Joins Marvel’s Avengers: Is She A Worthy Addition?

Earlier this week, Marvel’s Avengers added Jane Foster’s Mighty Thor to the playable roster, but is the new character worthwhile, or just phoning it in?

The Mighty Thor, Jane Foster, has landed in Marvel’s Avengers. The game, which has been relatively controversial since its launch due to complaints of limited content and bugs, has slowly added more content since its release almost two years ago.

PlayStation players were treated to exclusive character Spider-Man late last year, but for other p

Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness - Review

The second installment in the Doctor Strange franchise has finally hit the big screen, giving viewers a chaotic look into what the multiverse has in store for the MCU.

Multiverse of Madness is the culmination of over seven years of storytelling, beginning with Wanda’s first appearance in Avengers: Age of Ultron, through the first Doctor Strange, the team’s battles against Thanos, and even more recently both WandaVision and Spider-Man: No Way Home. The long-awaited sequel manages to close a box

Breaking Down Bridgerton Season 2

We take a look at the wild new season of Bridgerton on Netflix, breaking down the new characters/stories and how it stacks overall to the first season.

The second season of Bridgerton has finally landed and feels like it’s over all too soon (then again, that may be because I binged it in one sitting). This season was full of dramatic moments, longing looks, and some brand new scandals. But just like the characters, fans now must wait for the next season to see where the Bridgerton family winds

10 Years Later, The Hunger Games’ Success Remains Hard to Repeat

10 years ago, The Hunger Games, a relatively low-budget, unsuspecting film based on a YA book released to cinemas worldwide, and in doing so launched cinema into a new era.

It’s surreal for me to think about the fact that The Hunger Games has reached its 10 year anniversary already! It doesn’t feel all that long ago I hesitantly agreed to go and see a film where the characters fight to the death, only to fall head over heels for the series.

The Hunger Games was my first “thing.” It was the fir

Festive Films/TV You Might Not Have Seen

There’s always a slew of Christmas movies to watch around the holiday season, but there are a few you may have missed, but shouldn’t.

Around this time of year, there are few things nicer than settling down to watch something with a bit of festive cheer. Too often though, you find yourself reaching for the same films every year. Home Alone, Elf, Love Actually. Whilst they’re fantastic festive feel-goods, watching the same films year in and year out can get tiresome. If you’re looking for somethi
