Founded the zine on a jammed copier. Will die on the hill that turn-based combat is peak design.
Cut. Paste. Play. Issue #47
Games, screamed onto a photocopier at 2am.
InfernoFrostQuest is a Pyrmont-made game zine — brutal reviews, boss-fight guides and hot takes that never made it past the editor at the big sites. No scores out of ten. Just words that stick to the wall.

Who scribbles this
Stapled together in Pyrmont since 2016.
Not a review farm.
We started on a photocopier above a Harris Street bike shop, trading paper copies at Pyrmont markets. A decade on we still write like nobody's paying us — because for the honest stuff, nobody is. Every piece is played to credits, or we tell you exactly where we tapped out.
Loud, but fair.
Indies get the same wordcount as the AAA giants. We don't do sponsored scores, we don't do embargoed puff pieces, and we'll happily rip apart a launch we were hyped for. The safety pins on the cover aren't a costume — they hold the whole thing together.
What's inside every issue
Columns that don't pull punches.
Deep Reviews
3,000-word takes played to the ending, no early-access excuses. We log every hour, every crash and every microtransaction shoved in your face.

Four writers, one stapler.

Owns 40 kilos of cartridges. Digs up forgotten 90s gems and the stories behind their bad box art.

Chases down solo devs at PAX Aus and gets the messy behind-the-scenes stories nobody else prints.
Readers yelling back
From the letters pile.
"Your Baldur's Gate 3 guide got me through Act 3 without rage-quitting. No other site bothered to explain the honour-mode fights properly."
