Games Review - Interstellar Adventures, a Cooperative Puzzle Adventure

 Games Review - Interstellar Adventures In the depths of space, a cryptic signal reaches The Atlas from a previously unexplored planet. Aboard, Captain Silna and her crew scramble to decipher the call. What follows is an adventure that pushes our crew to confront their limits. Using powers of logic and deduction, the crew set out on a mission to untangle the unknown. Exploring an obscure new world, battling ravenous plants, and narrowly escaping missile attacks, our crew embark on a quest that makes them second guess everything they thought they knew… Interstellar Adventures is a new cooperative puzzle adventure from Minty Noodles. I met the people behind it at the UK Games Expo in Birmingham in May, and was immediately drawn in by the cool art and cute characters. After talking with them for a little, they were happy to send me a preview copy of review purposes. It's a really fun concept, and one I haven't really come across before.

Review - Her Last Holiday by C L Taylor

 Review - Her Last Holiday by C L Taylor


You come to Soul Shrink to be healed. You don’t expect to die.

Two years ago, Fran’s sister Jenna disappeared on a wellness retreat in Gozo that went terribly wrong.

Tom Wade, the now infamous man behind Soul Shrink Retreats, has just been released from prison after serving his sentence for the deaths of 2 people. But he has never let on what happened to the third suspected victim: Jenna.

Determined to find out the truth, Fran books herself onto his upcoming retreat – the first since his release – and finds herself face to face with the man who might hold the key to her sister’s disappearance. The only question is, will she escape the retreat alive? Or does someone out there want Jenna’s secrets to stay hidden?



I really enjoyed Her Last Holiday. An intriguing thriller about a wellness retreat that resulted in disappearances, deaths and a whole lot of questions to be answered. Fantastic stuff.

Telling the story through two different time periods really worked for me, I liked learning snippets of what happened on "her last holiday" while following the "current time" investigation into it, and being able to slowly put clues and people together myself. The relationship between the couple running the retreats was really fascinating, and there was a real depth to many of the supporting cast. It was really intriguing, clever and I enjoyed it a lot.
