MythicOwl, the studio behind puzzler Hexologic, has released One Line Coloring on the Nintendo Switch eShop. With a super chill gameplay premise that anyone can pick up and play, this connect-the-dots sim feels like the perfect follow-up to their original Hex-based PC title. One Line Coloring is a digital version of connect-the-dots but with some…

OkunoKA Madness (Xbox One) Review
Originally released on Switch as OkunoKA, Ignition Publishing and Caracal Games are upgrading purchasers to OkunoKA Madness for free. This beat-the-clock tough-as-nails platformer is designed for speed runners who enjoy punishment, similar to Super Meat Boy, and like to optimize runs to shave that tenth of a second off the final time. Playing as a…
Samurai Jack: Battle Through Time (Xbox One) Review
Despite feeling like a PS2-era title, Samurai Jack: Battle Through Time is as straightforward as they come but still features some button mashing, hack’n slash goodness. The simple gameplay keeps action at the forefront and plays well for a licensed property even though there isn’t too much meat on the bone. Presented as a direct…
Clumsy Rush (Xbox One) Review
Originally released in 2019 on Nintendo Switch, Clumsy Rush on Xbox One is pretty much the same game only with local four-player support instead of two and Achievements. The gimmick is the unique control scheme but that is also its downfall. One thing Clumsy Rush does exceeding well is provide a wondrous and highly entertaining…
Zombie Driver: Immortal Edition (PS4) Review
Exor Studios, developers behind the underrated X-Morph: Defense, has recently released Zombie Driver: Immortal Edition digitally on PS4. What makes this PS4 release unique is the free cross-buy from the PS3 version. Back in June 2018, Sony gave away Zombie Driver for free to PS+ subscribers. If you claimed this free game a couple years…
Car Mechanic Simulator Classic (Xbox One) Review
You know how Capcom releases a new version of Street Fighter every few months and just slaps the word “super” or “turbo” somewhere in the title and charges full price for the basically the same game? Well I think Ultimate Games S.A. is now the industry champion for re-releasing the exact same game only by…
Samurai Shodown! 2 (Switch) Review
Originally released as a pre-order bonus for the new release of Samurai Shodown (2019), SNK has released this NeoGeo Pocket Color classic on the Switch eShop now as a stand-alone download. Like Gal’s Fighters and King of Fighters R-2, the NeoGeo Pocket Color version of Samurai Shodown! 2 is a must play and a must…
King of Fighters R-2 (Switch) Review
Like Gals’ Fighter before it, King of Fighters R-2 on the Switch eShop is well emulated and should easily please any KoF fan. This is also a special occasion as this is the first time these NeoGeo Pocket Color titles have been made available outside of their original cartridge form. Even though the NeoGeo Pocket…
Norman’s Great Illusion (Xbox One) Review
Like other Sometimes You titles such as Need A Packet and Breeder’s Homegrown, Norman’s Great Illusion is an unconventional, experimental low-cost digital download that provides a message bigger than the sum of its parts. The approach is unique even though there isn’t much gameplay to speak of. With no tutorial or instruction of any kind,…
Double Kick Heroes (Xbox One) Review
Mixing rhythmic button presses with the action of a shoot’em-up might sound a little strange but Double Kick Heroes sets the dial to 11 with their post-apocalyptic setting. This is a fast paced, challenging game that has a killer soundtrack to boot. You know that scene in the latest Mad Max movie where psycho people…
