Accidental Heroes Game Review

Around these parts I'm known as the RPG guy for my love of different systems and the opportunity to immerse myself in the theme of a game. Accidental Heroes, an upcoming app-driven adventure game designed by Wojciech Grajkowski and published by Lucky Duck Games, puts your hero on a topsy-turvy joyride through an ever-changing world bursting with familiar references. Let's hop on the tracks and see how it plays. Accidental Heroes: The World is Your Oyster I'll preface my discussion of Accidental Heroes by acknowledging that my experiences are based on a prototype copy that was limited in scope compared to what's expected in the complete game.

Feature: 30 Years Later, I'm Finally Learning To Play The Ocarina (And You Should Too)

Ocarina of Mine. My first ocarina was from a hippy shop in Birmingham that also sold dreamcatchers. It was a circular brick-coloured one with zig-zag patterns, probably meant to look ‘ethnic’?

Feature: Don't Sleep On 'End Of Abyss', You'll Regret It

Overshadowed by October's biggest releases. October has been a pretty spectacular month for videogame bangers. It started with the likes of Ace Combat 8, Star Wars: Galactic Racer, Silver Pines, and my personal GOTY, Gears of War: E-Day launching within the space of nine days. And that’s before we get to Dragon's Dogma 2: Dark Arisen, Castlevania: Belmont's Curse, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4. You get the idea. It's certainly a great time to be a gamer. The biggest problem is finding enough hours in the day to actually sit down and play everything. Lord help us when GTA 6 drops and we’re all reduced to malnourished husks.
