Over The Hill Wants You And Your Friends To Relax And Go Offroading – Mini Review

Blog | Review

Over The Hill isn’t like other games. It isn’t interested in pushing you to your absolute limits, nor is it trying to sell you on intense competition. Instead, it focuses on one thing above all else: the journey.

After one of the strangest intro sequences you’ll experience this year, you’re cut loose in a vast, open world built entirely for exploration. While there are plenty of secrets to uncover along the trail, most rewards come in the form of cosmetics and car upgrades—tooling up your vehicle so you can venture even deeper into the wilderness.

Just You, Your Off-roader, and the Open Trail

The core gameplay loop is beautifully straightforward: you take an off-roader and drive around different landscapes. That’s it.

You aren’t tearing around corners at breakneck speeds. Instead, you’re trundling along at a leisurely pace, dodging massive boulders, snapping photos of local wildlife, and keeping a keen eye out for stray goats. When the terrain turns brutal, mastering your vehicle’s winch becomes second nature to pull yourself out of muddy ruts and tricky spots.

Better Together: 4-Player Co-op

You don’t have to tackle the trail solo, either. You and up to three friends can jump into co-op together to explore the wilderness as a convoy.

While you can use your winches to haul each other out of tight jams, the real draw is simply taking in the scenic views together. If you’re looking for a game where you can unclip your brain and just let your thoughts float off into the distance, this is it.

The Verdict: Unwind with Over The Hill

If you love the idea of kicking back, taking in the outdoors, and spotting a bear in its natural habitat, Over The Hill is well worth your time. It’s a wonderful lesson in gaming relaxation and good vibes—no high-pressure objectives, no flashy tricks, just pure, low-stress exploration.

Chances are, your backlog could use a game like Over The Hill. Why not jump in and enjoy the ride?

Montabi Mini-Review: A Exceptional Pokemon-Style Roguelike

Creature-collector games are always a blast, but for many of us, the real magic lies in watching our companions evolve. There is nothing quite like taking a tiny starter creature and raising it into a powerhouse. Surprisingly, not every game in the genre includes evolution, but Montabi nails it.

Even better? It blends classic monster evolution with a turn-based deckbuilder roguelike framework. On paper, mixing those genres sounds like a lot to juggle. In practice, it’s absolute magic.

Evolve Your Deck and Your Monster

You play as a young trainer setting out to protect your town from the nefarious X Gang and their roster of dangerous dinosaurs. To survive, you will need to build the ultimate team of Montabi.

Unlike standard monster-battlers, your trainer isn’t just standing on the sidelines… You actively participate in combat. Montabi features three distinct trainer characters, each bringing their own playstyle to the table:

The Student Trainer: Focuses on movement, utility, and tactical team support.
The Fighter Trainer: Gets right into the fray, dealing direct damage alongside their monsters.

Your Montabi have specialized roles, too. The real fun comes from theorycrafting build synergies on the fly: stacking armor and healing onto a single powerhouse monster while your trainer and support Montabi feed them extra card draws and energy.

Deep Synergy, Relics, and “Just One More Run”

Growth in Montabi is constant and deeply satisfying. After every successful encounter, you gain experience to level up your team. Reach a level milestone, and your Montabi will evolve into a stronger, cooler form—delivering that classic hit of progression nostalgia every single time. (Yes, you really can turn a tiny taxi bug into a massive, terrifying taxi bug.)

To round out the roguelike loop, Montabi delivers all the genre staples done right:

Branching Paths: Choose your route wisely to balance risk and reward.
Consumables & Gear: Equip your Montabi with specialized items and armor.
Passive Relics: Collect powerful run-defining artifacts that break your build wide open.

Montabi is polished, insanely addictive, and built around that irresistible “just one more run” loop. If you love creature collectors, tactical card games, or roguelike deckbuilders, this is an easy instant recommendation.

Denshattack! Mini-Review: Tony Hawk’s Meets Trains In A Stylish Trick Game

Posted on July 17, 2026 by faz_business

Blog | Review

Denshattack! is one of those rare games that feels familiar in its aims, but completely fresh in its execution. It takes place in a world ravaged by climate change, where most of humanity now lives inside corporate-controlled domes. Outside of that carefully managed society, you play as a woman selling ramen from an old train.

The rails, unfortunately, have seen better days. While you are technically still travelling on tracks, getting around means jumping gaps, pulling off kickflips, grinding rails, and chaining together tricks in ways that make your train feel more like a skateboard than a vehicle.

Early on, you meet someone who introduces you to Denshattack, a sport where train drivers compete to be as cool, stylish, and fast as possible. Honestly, why wouldn’t you get involved?

The world around the sport is just as charming as the sport itself. Some people compete, while others make a living by decorating trains, creating zines, and celebrating the culture around these stylish rail-riding daredevils. It gives the game a strong sense of personality, even before things start getting truly strange.

At first, you are simply learning how to turn properly, which takes more skill than you might expect. Before long, though, you are pulling off increasingly absurd stunts, chaining tricks together, and pushing your train far beyond anything resembling sensible public transport.

Denshattack! does not stop at tricks and time trials. The game also features boss fights, and while we will not spoil them here, they become wonderfully ridiculous.

As you progress, you learn new techniques that expand what is possible. Manuals let you connect tricks and grinds for higher scores, while later abilities allow you to grind along magnetic forces surrounding the world. These appear as psychedelic rainbow trainlines, which is about as wonderfully unhinged as it sounds.

There is almost no way to describe Denshattack! without making it sound completely wild, and that is part of its appeal. It is strange, stylish, loud, and refreshing in a way that makes it stand out immediately.

At its heart, Denshattack! is about fighting back against evil megacorporations while performing ridiculous train tricks with as much style as possible. That combination works far better than it has any right to.

The characters are engaging, the boss battles are memorable, and the side objectives give you plenty of reasons to replay levels in search of higher scores and better medals. It also becomes surprisingly challenging after the opening stages, but once you hit that flow state and start chaining everything together, it feels fantastic.

Denshattack! is bold, energetic, and gloriously odd. If you like games that take a simple idea and push it somewhere completely unexpected, this is absolutely one to watch.
