Rip Them Off (Xbox One) Review

Posted on April 12, 2021March 30, 2021 by squallsnake

Made by the same developer that created the trial and error puzzler Swim Out, Rip Them Off is a bizarrely interesting mix of capitalism and tower defense. To be clear, Rip Them Off is referring to screwing over customers to maximize profit and has nothing to do with the removal of clothes in an aggressive…

Magic Twins (Switch) Review

Posted on April 10, 2021March 23, 2021 by squallsnake

Twins Abra and Cadabra wanted to use color to dye their clothes but mistakenly unleashed Colormageddon. Now they need to use their chromagic powers to create spells to retain their newly dyed dresses. The story might be a little goofy but developers Flying Beast Labs needed to attach the color element directly to the gameplay….

Bladed Fury (Xbox One) Review

Posted on April 10, 2021April 6, 2021 by squallsnake

Based on Chinese mythology and with an art style that sort of looks like a Vanillaware game, Bladed Fury, released by PM Studios, is a 2D action game that has an appreciated uncomplicatedness to it. Putting stylish combat firmly at the forefront, this brief narrative will keep players engaged with button-mashing combo-based action even though…

Say No! More (Switch) Review

Posted on April 9, 2021April 6, 2021 by squallsnake

Say No! More is literally an on-rails saying “no” simulator. Yes, it is as ridiculous as it sounds but the humorous presentation carries a very serious message.  The experience is short, only lasting about an hour, but I had a laughing smile on my face until the credits rolled. The gameplay is essentially one long…

The Nintendo DS Taito DS Paddle Controller is Awesome!

Posted on April 8, 2021April 5, 2021 by squallsnake

The Nintendo DS wasn’t just a cool system because it had two screens, Nintendo implemented backwards compatibility with Gameboy Advance games via Slot 2 at the bottom of the console. Sometimes dubbed the “GBA Slot,” this extra port allowed for some creative uses in DS games. For example, if players inserted Final Fantasy Tactics Advance…

Vaporum – Lockdown (Switch) Review

Posted on April 6, 2021March 30, 2021 by squallsnake

In 2019, Fatbot Games released the original Vaporum.  Not knowing what to expect from this unknown IP, I was pleasantly surprised by the addictive 1st person grid-based gameplay. Vaporum – Lockdown is a sequel but takes place before the events of the first game even though gameplay is almost identical. Playing as a daughter looking…

Beach Buggy Racing 2: Island Adventure (Xbox One) Review

Posted on April 5, 2021March 17, 2021 by squallsnake

Expanding from the 2017 original, the developers at Vector Unit took their time creating this sequel Beach Buggy Racing 2: Island Adventure. Sure, at first glance it can easily be determined as a Mario Kart rip-off but there is a staggering amount of game here. Although it features generic Miis as playable racers, it makes…

SHING! (Switch) Review

Posted on April 3, 2021March 30, 2021 by squallsnake

SHING!, released by Mass Creation and PixelHeart, is a side-scrolling beat’em up brawler that deserves a bit of recognition for trying something new even though its stand-out feature results in its biggest downfall. Instead of tapping buttons to perform light and strong attacks, all fighting is handled by knocking the right analog stick. This is…
