A PASSION FOR ALL THINGS GAMES
Published by EastAsiaSoft and ticketed at $20, Book of Korvald is a meaty 2D side-scrolling action adventure. If you can look beyond the low budget marionette visuals and shoddy hit detection, there is an impressive quest here. With his village destroy and family killed, Korvald is a journalist who is brutally tortured. Blinded and on […]
Craeplay’s MOTE: Workshop is a 10-minute walking-simulator that offers an easy, low-cost Platinum trophy but not much else. At least it knows not to overstay its welcome. Using typical first-person controls, the only verbs are move and jump. Unfortunately, there is no option to swap the Y axis so inverters like me will annoyingly struggle […]
There were three Japan-exclusive WiiWare Pokemon Mystery Dungeon games: Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Let’s Go! Stormy Adventure Squad, Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Go For It! Light Adventure Squad, and Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Keep Going! Blazing Adventure Squad (fire, water, electric). This trilogy is often referred to as the Adventure Squad series (2009).

Sometimes you need a corresponding GBA game. Sometimes you just need an empty GBA. Honestly, it was a pretty cool feature, but it got overlooked and went under appreciated. It was released […]
Tiny Biomes is a simple tile rotation puzzle game where you need to guide the flow of water to set end points. Unfortunately, the gameplay always feels like work and is never fun. Even with the three different biomes, aka backgrounds, the objective, approach, and presentation remain the same – hit the A button on […]
Columns, as well as the Game Gear, was a direct response to Nintendo’s Gameboy and Tetris. Although the imitation attempt is admirable, Columns isn’t anything special but multiplayer mode if the most fun option on this cartridge. However, the Gear-To-Gear Game Gear link cable was sold separately so chances are, most people never played this […]
Pac-Man on Game Gear is basically the exact same game as the original Gameboy version but with color. The best part about this arcade classic is the 2-player multiplayer link cable mode… the mode you never played for yourself. Instead of simply aiming for a high score like in the single player mode, any ghosts […]

Heroes Battle Awakening is a firmly winking nod to Plants Vs Zombies as it follows its tower defense gameplay almost exactly yet simplified. Five lanes. Tile based. A new tower or enemy type is introduced at every stage. Comical tone. It is a budget, straightforward, tower defense title that mostly achieves its goals. This TD […]
The Game Gear version of Bubble Bobble has special feature most handheld iterations lack – two player co-op support through the use of the link cable. The co-op mode is the preferred way to play this iconic game but having a partner let’s you steamroll most stages thanks to the small level design. The music […]
