A Beautifully Stylised Indie Game Although Pinstripe can be completed in a little over 3 hours, what this puzzle-platformer lacks in longevity it more than makes up for with bags of charm, an incredible, nightmarish style and a really great sense of humour. There’s an almost Tim Burton feel to the style of this Indie flick that makes it such a joy to traverse through the condensed levels. Boasting excellent voice acting and a good combination of combat, platforming and puzzles, Pinstripe is a highly enjoyable Indie game that’s well worth checking out....

Episode Guide Young Guns To Arms Under Siege Surrender The Reckoning Rebellion has all the ingredients to be a really exciting depiction of a pivotal moment in Irish history. Between the great set design, strong character work and decent acting, Rebellion is let down by a pedestrian story, one that fails to do justice to the slice of history it’s based on. Rebellion is quite the slow burn too, with the first few episodes getting the show off to a shaky start before eventually opening up and becoming much more engaging....

Forgive Me Father, For I Have Sinned Saint Maud is not a horror movie. It’s not a particularly scary film and there’s certainly no jump scares here either. Going into this one expecting a conventional chill-fest will almost certainly leave you disappointed. Instead, Saint Maud plays out as a slow-burn psychological thriller, taking ideas from many different movies and turning that into a patchwork draped around the shoulders of our heavily religious protagonist....
