Originally released on PC last year, Running Fable has been ported to Xbox and Switch with crossplay support. It is an offline/online multiplayer cartoony racer that sort of puts the classic kart racing formula in reverse. While it is an interesting approach to the kart genre, horrible quality of life features drastically holds back the […]

Car Detailing Simulator (Switch) ReviewAs another extension of all previously released Simulator games published by Ultimate Games, Car Detailing Simulator might be the most playable of their sim-heavy library but that doesn’t mean it is fun. This time, instead of fixing cars (or space rovers or tanks), the player is tasked with making them showroom ready. While it obviously […]

Sephonie (XSX) ReviewA platformer with puzzle game elements, Sephonie is a unexpected gameplay experience. Centering around three scientists that have been stranded on an island, the trio must work together, explore their environment, and create neuro links with animals. The meat of the gameplay comes from typical 3D platforming traversal, complete with jump pads, grapple points, and […]

Swords & Bones 2 (Switch) ReviewSwords & Bones 2 features the same visual style, retro gameplay, and level of quality as the original. Honestly, it is more like an expansion pack than a new game, but I am okay with that since I enjoyed the simplicity and straightforwardness of the original port on Switch and Xbox. Instead of playing as […]

Playing as a blind swordsman, the goal is to escape a vast dungeon by collecting a bunch of keys, killing a ton of mindless guards, and avoiding traps along the way. Both the gameplay and presentation is simple, yet approachable, but to a fault. Even though it […]

Garlic (XSX) Review with StreamDescribed as a hot and tasty retro-inspired action platformer, Garlic is loaded with ridiculous platforming goodness. It rides a firm line between being too difficult and being too easy, has a creative visual presentation, and quality stage design. For an indie platformer, this is easily one of the best I’ve been in a good while. […]

Feeble Light (PS4) Review with StreamFor a $5 shooter, Feeble Light is an outstanding value. It is a fun, little shmup that doesn’t take itself too seriously but will easily please both casual and dedicated players. Made by a small team and published by EastAsiaSoft, you control a tiny ship as you need to blast enemies and avoid hazards. This […]

Neko Secret Homecoming (Switch) ReviewA follow up to Neko Secret Room, Neko Secret Homecoming is more of the same only more confusing and creepier. Ok, this is the story. Are you ready for this?

Reverie: Sweet As Edition (XSX) Review with StreamOriginally released on PS4 and Vita about five years ago, Reverie: Sweet As Edition takes the top-down real combat action RPG mechanics of Zelda: A Link To the Past and mixes it with the spritework of Earthbound. Due to the low difficulty, this remains a casual and laid-back experience from beginning to end. Playing as […]
