Who We Are
Tarenuxol was founded in Auckland in 2021 by a small group of friends who were tired of reading game reviews that felt disconnected from the way real players experience games. We wanted something honest, thorough, and written by people who actually care about the craft of game design.
Today, our team of eight reviewers covers PC, PlayStation, Xbox, and Nintendo titles across every genre. We're based across New Zealand — from Wellington to Christchurch — and we bring a distinctly Kiwi perspective to everything we write.
We Finish Every Game
No review goes live until the reviewer has completed the main campaign and spent meaningful time with side content.
Transparent Scoring
Our 10-point scale is clearly defined. We explain every score and never let publisher relationships influence our verdicts.
Editorially Independent
We accept no payment for reviews. Review copies are disclosed. Our opinions are entirely our own.
