Rollerdrome came out in summer 2022, and whilst it was garnering positivity and doing seemingly well, I never got a chance to play it. Made by Roll7 the skate legends that made Olli Olli World (I love that game and have a review in-waiting for it!). Dripping with a signature style, it takes a step […]

All things gaming
Cyberpunk 2077 – Phantom Liberty – Announcement
I bloody loved Cyberpunk 2077. Sure it landed with a thud and CD Projekt Red have been making up for it ever since. But they got it into a decent place, and I spent a massive amount of time following V down the Johnny Silverhand Rabbit hole. It was a long time but I felt […]
Quick Look: Coffee Talk
An indie masterclass in narrative, relaxation and coffee recipes.
Jedi Fallen Order – Final thoughts
I’ll just go ahead and say it, I’m really pleased Jedi Fallen Order is done. I would say all-in-all it hasn’t been the best gaming experience and I’m really happy that I stuck to it enough to finish it. I’ve been into detail on how well it runs on the Steam Deck which is a […]
Warframe in 2023
I’m an idiot. I started playing Warframe again this week (alas, no cross-progress form my old Xbox account), because I wanted to see how it had come along over the past year or so. I jumped in, it felt familiar and comfortable, and I’d been planning my Warframe return. Little did I realise that my […]
Quick Look: Sunset Overdrive
Off the back of Hi-Fi Rush, I’ve been thinking about other games that match the style and “feel”. The only game that has sprung to mind is Sunset Overdrive. Released in 2014 by Insomniac Games (developers of the new Spider-Man games) on the Xbox One. Sunset Overdrive caught the attention and praise of most. A […]
Jedi Fallen Order – Review: Part 1
I’m trying. Really trying to enjoy Jedi Fallen Order. I started my first time in 2020 when it hit Gamepass on the Xbox. Jedi Fallen Order was getting rave reviews and I’d heard nothing bad about it. Then, I found it sluggish and honestly hard work. It occurred to me that playing it on Xbox […]
Blog: On Deck!
Here at ninjarefinery.com I’m always looking at other approaches to how I can get useful/helpful information across to people. Reviews are useful, right? Understanding how things work is useful. Well, what about compatibility and functionality? I want to start to deliver some experiences of games on the Steam Deck. Having had a Steam Deck for […]
Tears of the Kingdom – Final Trailer
Nintendo have released the final trailer for The Legend of Zelda – Tears of the Kingdom and it’s a big one! Arguably more exciting than the great gameplay demo we saw a couple of weeks ago! Honestly, there’s so much to take in that I need to watch it a hundred more times. But my […]
