Final Fantasy 7was my first experience with theRPGseries, with all of the NES and SNES titles coming out before I was even born. This meant the likes of 3, 4, 5, 6, and all those that came before (2 and 1, I suppose) could only ever be appreciated retroactively, and I never grew up with the pixel aesthetic that millions of other fans view so fondly. Don’t get me wrong, I’ve been converted in recent years, mostly thanks to the brilliance of gems likeOctopath Traveller....

I know that might not sound like the most valuable service I could be providing. Shouting “mobile games bad” to gamers can sometimes feel like reminding vegans that meat is murder. Every time I draga new DoomorDevil May CryorMarvel mobile gamethrough the mud, I’m not so much revealing a racket as telling people what they already know....

During the first few hours of playingBlack Myth: Wukong, you’ll quickly realize that the game throws a lot of bosses at you sooner than expected compared to other action games.
