A PASSION FOR ALL THINGS GAMES
SokoPenguin is another low-cost, easy Achievement unlocking, casual Sokoban title published by EastAsiaSoft. It only costs five bucks and takes about an hour to clear but there are worse ways to spend your time and money. Controlling a penguin on a tile-based grid, it is your job to reach the exit point. Getting to the […]
EA’s Gamecube version of Harry Potter Quidditch World Cup can be linked with the Gameboy Advance version in two ways. First, unlocked cards can be swapped between both versions. Second, when playing an exhibition match, the linked GBA player can compete against AI in a game of Pong (restricted to vertical movement only). If the […]

This vertical shooter is specifically designed to grow with the player. Like a roguelite, each stage, enemy placement, and boss is randomized. Being honest, when I first started playing, this game made me angry […]
Inspired by speedy racers such as WipeOut and F-Zero, Phantom Spark is designed entirely around one thing – speed. Visually designed with strong pastel visuals, the Hyper Light Drifter-like setting makes for a quality backdrop when set against such high speeds.

Playing as some guy with a sword, gameplay couldn’t really be simpler. […]
