While FPV SkyDive doesn’t have Liftoff’s aerodynamic authority or Uncrashed’s good looks, it does come with serviceable FMs, entertaining environments, and a hard-to-resist price tag: 0GBP. I’ve been reaching for it pretty regularly of late, and, during a recent session,…
Missing tutorials and Zimmerit-rough in places, flawed-but-fun Tank Squad feels like it should have launched as an Early Access title. The following Q&A explains why it didn’t, and reveals just how much DeGenerals had to sacrifice in order to keep…
V is for Verisimilitudinous virtual tides. The tiny selection of maritime sims that acknowledge the Moon’s effect on sea levels grew by one late last month. Not only do eSail owners who opt in to the V3 beta get improved…
L is for Light at the end of the tunnel at long last? General Staff: Black Powder’s website and Steam page haven’t been updated in a dishearteningly long time, but recent posts on the Kickstarter page give wargame AI aficionados…
F is for Fourth time lucky? Originally slated for a Q1 2024 release, then rescheduled for September 2024, and, later, May 2025, the sequel to one of Simulatia’s most realistic motoring sims acquired its fourth ETA earlier this week. The…
A is for Adorable Arthurian art attached to abstruse aggro arithmetic. I love Legends of the Round Table’s artwork, animations, and Anna Azéma music and narration, but I’ve not yet warmed to the number-heavy combat maths in the demo for…
You’ve had your chance, SubwaySim 2. Although you come with nicely modelled EMUs, attractive ribbons of Hamburg and Berlin, a replay-friendly timetable mode, imaginative scenarios, and exemplary tutorials, because I can’t seem to get you to run smoothly and look…
What a lovely way to start the day. I’ve just landed my largest bream yet in agreeably atmospheric angling sim, Fisher Online. Recommended to me by cederic, a Cornerite who’s spent over 190 hours playing it, £12 FO has some…
Three of my favourite Tank Squad moments so far. Moment 1. I’m advancing towards a seemingly neutralised Soviet position in a lone Panzer IV. There’s an HE round up the spout in case of unpleasant surprises. A short distance from…
Five years ago today, Early Access Armoured Commander 2 hit Steam. Part-time developer, full -time academic, Gregory Adam Scott promised “over a year of planned additions and updates” in his first post-launch communique. What he and his customers didn’t know…
Too eager to please and blighted by buggy reflections, so-so scenery, and flawed cameras, Ultimate Fishing Simulator 2’s stay on the THC toe-warmer was mayfly brief. Within ninety minutes of making my first cast, I’d had enough and was reinstalling…
Tank Squad missions can be pretty intense. When you’re not scanning scenery for dialed-in AT guns, trading AP rounds with T-34s and KV-1s, or attempting to evade mortar barrages, you’re often dealing with aggressive enemy infantry, directing your own dismounts,…
