A PASSION FOR ALL THINGS GAMES
Game and gadget reviews here.
Hidden Through Time is Where’s Waldo but presented in a way that feels right and plays exactly how you would expect. Controlling an on-screen cursor, the goal is to locate specific objects in a busy landscape, just like searching for Waldo in the 90s. Unlike the static pages of the book, this game features subtle […]
Originally released on PC in 2018 and on Switch/PS4 in Japan in 2019, Marvelous has ported this side scrolling Metroidvania to the American Switch eShop. With a ridiculous plot and explosive combat, anime fans might get a kick out of this digital download if they can tolerate the wordy dialog. Dead or School is little […]
Ski Sniper is a comical, but somewhat scary, sniper game that plays exactly as the title suggests. From a perched position far away, you are a sniper and the goal is to pick off skiers as they jump off an Olympic sized ramp. Each successful shot features a cool slow-mo bullet time x-ray flourish reminiscent […]
You know when you first start any Bomberman game? How you can only lay one bomb at a time, and that one bomb has a dinky explosion? That is pretty much what Explosive Jake is only for the entire game. It doesn’t really get any better or more exciting. Just drop bombs, avoid your own […]
Essentially a Star Wars AT-ST simulator, Be A Walker is a walk-to-the-right-and-blast-anything-that-moves 2D action game. Pitting you against a throng of enemies that literally throw wooden spears at a metal bi-pedal walking tank, there is a hint of Avatar here and is a wonder how feeble weapons can damage your mech at all. Far from […]
The fact that Boulder Dash 30th Anniversary exists as a stand-alone, new title in the long running series is a triumph unto itself. Imagine if Nintendo created a Mario or Zelda title just to specifically celebrate an anniversary. Man, one can wish! Seeing that BBG Entertainment went the extra mile to create a new game, […]
From the makers of Castle of Heart, Warplanes WW2 Dogfight, and Golf Peaks, 7Level’s latest creation is a casual puzzler. Inbento has a lot in common with Golf Peaks in that the player needs to reach the end result by taking specific steps to get there. Also, similar to Golf Peaks, this is one of […]
Avocuddle might be one of the strangest juxtapositions seen this console generation. On one hand, gameplay is Metroidvania-ish with a focus on exploring a number of large worlds filled with creatures that can be defeated using a number of different unlockable weapons. On the other hand is a stupidly silly plot, graphics that starkly contrast […]
Designed specifically for co-op play, ibb & obb is a $15 Nintendo Switch eShop download that is simple, quality fun. Using gravity and creative co-op platforming mechanics, this is the perfect game to play with your significant other or youngster. It is important to note this is strictly a 2-player experience; there is no single […]
Originally released as an indie PC game, Breeder Homegrown: Director’s Cut is an experimental adventure title with some visual novel-like themes. Even though it is dubbed as a horror game in the official description, there isn’t too many scary moments in this 60 minute story. Instead, everything is just odd but with a very serious […]
