Alveole (Xbox One) Review with stream
Originally starting as a hobby and the product of hack-a-thons, Alveole is an experimental puzzle game built about a single theme – cage. With a unique minimalistic presentation and only using a single button, Alveole isn’t a bad game by any means, just a really odd one with limited replay value. Playing as a stick…
Fishing Adventure (Xbox One) review with stream
Originally released on Switch in early 2020, Fishing Adventure is now available on Xbox One. Since this is the exactly the same game, everything that I mentioned in my Switch article applies here. To recap my original Switch coverage, there is no story in this first person fishing sim so the game jumps right into…
Curious Expedition 2 (Switch) Review
Taking place on a hexagonal grid, Curious Expedition 2 is a roguelike title that puts an emphasis on narrative, decision making, and randomness into a combination that is rewarding but also carries a higher level of difficulty that might not appeal to everyone. You and your crew are exploring the seas when an island is…
Knights & Guns (Switch) Review
A Buster Bros. clone (aka Pang), Knights & Guns is an action game that offers some quality, mindless fun when played in short bursts and with a co-op partner at your side. Playing as a knight whose kingdom was invaded by monsters, it is your job to kill these beasts not by using a sword…
Pretty Girls Panic! (PS4) Review
Pretty Girls Panic! is one of those single screen reaction based games where you control a cursor and need to fill in the picture by making enclosed boxes without colliding with enemies. If you succeed, you are rewarded with a picture of an anime babe in a swim suit. If you grew up in the…
Mina & Michi (Xbox One) Review
Using one controller to control two simultaneous characters, Mina & Michi is another cutesy and simple game developed by Ratalaika Games and published by EastAsiaSoft. Which means low cost, easy Achievements worth big points, and a charming visual style built around one major gameplay mechanic. The gimmick here is controlling both the weaker Mina with…
Super Hiking League DX (Xbox One) Review with stream
A game about racing to the finish, Super Hiking League DX is a perfect example of simple design but difficult to master gameplay. With a presentation that looks, feels, and sounds, like a new NES game, this competitive platformer gets addicting the more you play. Starting from the bottom of the screen, the player is…
Heart Chain Kitty (Switch) Review
It is easy to see the inspiration behind the platforming mechanics in Heart Chain Kitty. Starting with a limited repertoire, the player slowly unlocks new abilities as level design gets more complex, there are several items to collect, and plenty of objectives to complete. Considering this title was developed by a very small team, credit…
A Night At The Races (Switch) Review
Mixing an unconventional narrative with twitch, high-speed gameplay is a unique combo that A Night At The Races fully embraces. This mixture of pacing yields a distinct experience, one that falls in line with Nakana.io’s library of stand-out titles. Developed by Mushy Jukebox, players assume the role of a lone resident living like Neo before…
