This is the impelling Graphic Novel that inspired M. Night Shyamalan’s latest movie ‘Old’ – so if you’re a fan of his work, you’ll know what type of storytelling to expect from Sandcastle. Thought provoking story and beautifully illustrated!!!
Beyond NRG – New Flavours review by Harrison
Available from all good retailers (16 Years +) 3.5 Stars/4 Stars
Youth #Gottit View:
Targeted at gamers – these drinks and the drinking cup are very cool. Always read all of the guidance on drinks like these very carefully and make sure not to exceed one drink maximum per day. New flavours include Cherry Twist and Lemon Sherbet. Cherry Twist was our favourite!!!

PlayStation 5 – A Plague Tale Innocence
Set during the Hundred Year war, Amicia de Rune (A young noble girl) must protect her brother Hugo from the French Acquisition and scared Villagers. They believe his sickness is to blame for the outbreak of a widespread Plague that’s killing the locals as Amicia is forced to run from their home and guide him to safety.
The game is a Third person adventure game in a similar style to the Assassins Creed franchise with lots of running, chasing, puzzle solving and tense moments within the storytelling.
The graphics follow the trend of its other PS5 predecessors, with settings being stunning, finding myself lost in their majesty more than a few times throughout my playthrough. My only criticism is the fluidity and inconsistencies within the facial department, as the game struggles to properly convey expressions, taking away from the amount of emotions the characters can display.
Overall this game is great for fans of adventure games and reminds me especially of the Ezio trilogy in its gameplay and style.
A must play for anyone interested in the middle age era of Europe and all of the superstitions and mystic tales surrounding it.

This is a tense chase game that will keep you on the edge of your seat. Its an upgrade from PS4 to PS5 – but looks really good and plays well!!!
