We are a tech-focused gaming review studio based in Auckland, New Zealand. Our goal is to bring a higher level of intelligence and data analysis to game reviews.
Most review outlets treat games purely as entertainment products. We treat them as complex software deployments. A game might have excellent art direction, but if its netcode is severely unoptimized for Oceania routing, that information is critical for our audience.
We believe that games are complex software systems, and they should be evaluated as such. We test latency, server stability across Oceania, economy loops, and mechanical depth. We also refuse to accept publisher compensation for reviews, ensuring our data remains untainted.
