This week we are aboard the starship Fedora 1, stranded at the bottom of the ocean on an alien planet, in Slowbros' magnificent hand crafted game Harold Halibut.



This game is an absolute must play and is my favourite game of 2024 so far, so make sure you check it out!



If you’re in the mood to experience another narrative driven indie game with a unique art style, check out episode 27 of the podcast where I review Goodbye Volcano High.



Have you checked out Harold Halibut or did this episode convince you to try it out? Let me know in the comments below or hit me up on social media.

This week I ‘suffer not the heretic to live’ in Warhammer 40K:Boltgun by Auroch Digital and Focus Entertainment.

You may know this game as the DOOM-like 'boomer-shooter' set in the Warhammer 40K universe.

Though the game looks visually stunning and seems a no-brainer for the mix of doom FPS and Warhammer 40K, is it actually any good?

If you enjoyed this episode and you’re in the mood to list to another review about an FPS that didn't live up to its potential, check out episode 13 and my review of Redfall.

Having seen the remaster’s high scores, enjoying most of my time with Metroid Dread and trying to get myself hyped up for Metroid Prime 4, I decided I should finally try out Metroid Prime for the very first time.



I was interested to know, is the game really that good or is its acclaim based on nostalgia critics and fans have from when they played the original back in 2002?



Let’s find out in this week’s episode of the Beat Your Backlog podcast.
