Guide: How to Complete Absolutely Everything in Muramasa Rebirth

MuramasaCompleting everything in Muramasa Rebirth can be a little confusing, but mainly because the order in which the game’s post-completion tasks should be tackled in isn’t always clear. Once you’re done with the main story there’s still a lot to see and do, so here’s a spoiler-free guide for anyone who wants to make sure they get the most out of the game.

Review: JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure: All Star Battle

titleLongtime DC readers might remember that I originally reviewed the import version of JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure: All Star Battle back in August last year. At the time I enjoyed it quite a lot, but certainly didn’t think it would be localised. Am I glad it did? Of course, but now its problems are clearer and it stands out as a game that isn’t for everyone.

Review: Baccano!

BaccanoMuch of the first episode of Bacanno! is spent discussing the nature of stories, with some pretty heavy meta commentary asking if the one it’s about to tell can have either a main character or a true beginning. This is spliced between a series of seemingly random (yet still totally awesome) scenes all focusing on different people from the show’s massive cast, and all presented in a non-chronological sequence. Confusing? Maybe a little at first. Good? Probably the best thing I’ve ever seen.

Review: Persona 4 The Animation

Persona4Persona 4 The Animation may have a relatively specific appeal, but for fans of the game it’s an easy recommendation. I mean who wouldn’t want an anime retelling of their favourite RPG? It’s an excellent example of Japan’s smart attitude towards transmedia, and whilst it’s essentially a retelling of the game’s story, it is an entertaining and well-crafted adaptation of its source material.

Review: Psycho-Pass

Psycho PassDid somebody say ‘Dystopian Future’? Ah, the very words get me excited, and the premise of Psycho-Pass is certainly intriguing. Potential criminals used as hunting dogs to track down mentally insane criminals? In the future? Well, you’ve got my attention.

Review: Fez

fez-titleI love Fez. I loved Fez on the Xbox 360 and now I love it on PS4. I’ve got so many good things to say about this game that I’m worried it’s gunna sound sarcastic. I think Phil Fish is an exceptionally talented game designer and that Fez is an outright masterpiece. No sarcasm, no ‘but…’, I really mean it. I love Fez.

Guide: List of Caves of Evil in Muramasa Rebirth

Muramasa2Caves of Evil make up a large piece of Muramasa Rebirth’s post-completion content. Fighting your way through these ‘challenge rooms’ is certainly fun, but working out the order to face them in isn’t. That’s where this list comes in, and I’ve arranged the caves by recommended level and marked out their locations, so you’ll know where to find them, and how to face them in order of difficulty. I’ve also noted which of the later Caves unlock new swords to help you unlock all 108, as well as the final ending.

Review: Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes

titleDoes anyone remember a game called Zone of The Enders? Released back in 2001, it saw good sales thanks to the inclusion of a demo for Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty. Ground Zeroes is quite a lot like Zone of The Enders. That is if you removed pretty much everything Z.O.E is composed of. Remove it all and what’s left is a demo for a Metal Gear Solid game, just like Ground Zeroes.
