Qesunavor team in Wellington office

Our Story

Qesunavor was founded in 2017 by a group of Wellington-based gamers who were tired of reading reviews written by people who clearly hadn't finished the games they were covering. We set out to do things differently.

Every review on this site represents dozens of hours of genuine play. We don't publish until we've seen the credits roll โ€” or, in the case of open-world games, until we've exhausted the content we care about. Our scores mean something because we earn them.

Based in Wellington, New Zealand, we cover PC, PlayStation, Xbox, and Nintendo titles. We accept no advertising from game publishers and are funded entirely by our readers through newsletter subscriptions and direct support.

What We Stand For

Three principles that guide every review we publish.

๐ŸŽฎ

Complete Playthroughs

We finish every game before scoring it. No review is published based on early access or partial playthroughs.

๐Ÿ”

Editorial Independence

We accept no advertising from publishers. Our scores are never influenced by review copies, relationships, or commercial pressure.

๐ŸŒ

Kiwi Perspective

We write for New Zealand gamers. We factor in local server availability, regional pricing context, and the NZ gaming community's preferences.
