REVIEW: Nice Slice for Nintendo Switch


Review by Jon Donnis
Kool2Play are back with another simple to play arcade game.
You have a super sharp knife, and endless amount of things to slice, and the smaller the pieces the higher the score, it really is as simple as that.

As you will have come to expect from Kool2Play the soundtrack is top quality, with a slow rhythmic beat that just helps you get into the game.

Obvious comparisons will be made to Fruit Ninja, but this game does have some differences, including the fact you can cut food into more than one piece.


As us slice at the food, a correct cut will add time, and a missed cut will take time off, so some skill is needed here as opposed to just endlessly trying to slice.

As you progress through the game, you collect coins which in turn allow you to unlock new things like new knives which have comic names like "Obi-Knife-Kenobi"

This is a simple game, if you enjoyed Fruit Ninja you will enjoy this. The only negative is that the controls can take a bit of getting used to, but once you do you will be flying.

A fun pick up and play arcade game that doesn't take too many brain cells to play.

I score this 7/10

Marble Combat out now on Steam Early Access for Free!


Phantom 8 is back with a total new game concept named Marble Combat. The studio’s first multiplayer game available now in Early Access on Steam and is free to play. Marble Combat will be further developed in an open development style with heavy involvement of the community - listening to the feedback of the fans is the studio’s driving force.

Gameplay style
Marble combat is a physics based multiplayer game for 2 - 8 people. Players compete as magical marbles racing and fighting to dominate capture points and collect power ups. Every player can pick a combination of four abilities which can hinder enemies, boost allies or improve ball control.

Development history
"Marble Combat started out as a small multiplayer demo pitched internally to the Phantom 8 team. It was incredibly fun and playable at an early stage and the team wanted to work on something light hearted and funny without a long development cycle. The concept provided a reasonable scope for what a small team could produce and would be easy to test and take on feedback from anyone who wanted to get involved."

"At first it was just the intention was to be a ball rolling game but like any development project, the team hit upon a flurry of new ideas for setting. After fleshing out some of the powers and level design options, a real life marble setting seemed perfect. The art style was at first a full on 1950's-60's retro feel but as we wanted to get in more and more toys and references from our childhood, it ended up containing themes from various eras."

Team based multiplayer
Comedy retro theme

Dead or Alive 6 Review


Dead or Alive 6 reviewed by Mike Epstein on PlayStation 4. Also available on Xbox One and PC.

Aspiring fighters will be able to experience the sixth DEAD OR ALIVE World Combat Championship in Early 2019; and every fight will be presented in amazing detail, allowing fans to discern intricate facial expressions unparalleled to those seen in previous entries.

The DEAD OR ALIVE Tournament Executive Committee and hosts of DEAD OR ALIVE 6, DOATEC, already released the names of the first set of fighters involved in this instalment - including the owner of DOATEC, Helena Douglas. Other notable fighters include the eighteenth master of the Mugen Tenshin clan, Hayate, and past DEAD OR ALIVE (DOA) tournament winners; Kasumi of the Mugen Tenshin clan, the ultimate ninja, Ryu Hayabusa, the ever-entertaining host, Zack, and the most recent tournament winner, the scorching soul Jann Lee!

Two new locations have been scouted to host key matches in the sixth tournament: the remarkable DOA Colosseum, complete with three bold statues showcasing famous fighting stances, and The Throwdown, a gritty back street where raw unfiltered fighting can take place in its prime.

Select locations, such as The Throwdown, allow the live audience to get even closer to the action than ever before - with some unruly fans breaking the rules and pushing fighters back into the centre of the ring. Combined with the fan-favourite 'Mass Destruction', where fighters can use the environment in their attacks, this tournament is set to be one of the most entertaining ever hosted by DOATEC.
