A PASSION FOR ALL THINGS GAMES
Game and gadget reviews here.
Rogue Sentry is not a rogue, roguelite, or roguelike. No, the name is a literal description of the playable protagonist, a robot sentry that has gone rogue. Gameplay is a twin-stick Metroidvania, outfitted with PlayDate-like 1-bit visuals that are letterboxed within the widescreen. Two quickly summarize, it is a wonderful and highly entertaining three-hour romp. […]
Created by Deck13, the same team that released Crosscode and Chained Echoes, have released Drova, a 6-year passion project, to modern consoles and PC. To summarize, Drova is an atmospheric open-world action RPG set in a brutally dark Celtic, magic-filled world. It doesn’t take much to see this is a role-playing game made by enthusiastic […]
Ratalaika Games and Shinyuden recently re-released Aero the Acrobat and Aero the Acrobat 2 on modern platformers. Rounding out this obscure trilogy is the re-release of Zero the Kamikaze Squirrel who was an antagonist in the Aero titles. However, playing as the bad guy results in the most polished and playable of the three titles. […]
Available on Switch and Steam by Nakana.io and Oeh Interactive, Ahro is a 2D side-scrolling adventure with a message. Containing a similar level of emotion found in Journey of the Broken Circle, Lydia, and Infini, other Nakana releases, Ahro is bigger than the sum of its parts. The simple Microsoft Paint-like visual style and barely-there […]
Damikira is a chaotic action platformer geared around dark humor and bloody violence. The fluid pixel art is never anything overly gross and not super impressive but it definitely has a morbid sense of personality to match its “just one more run” gameplay. As it turns out, human DNA has been crossed with crazy animal […]
Published by Ratalaika Games, They Came From The Sky 2 is a fun, score based 2D side scrolling action game that reminds me of arcade classic Rampage only with aliens instead of giant monsters. Playing as an alien in a side shuffling walker, it is your job to kill, abduct, and destroy as many humans […]
Published by RedDeer.Games, Dros is an adventurous platformer mainly based around environmental puzzle solving. The gameplay gimmick comes from controlling two unique characters at once. Captain, a knight that can swing a sword but cannot jump, and a Dros, a blob of black goo that can double jump but cannot attack. Together, they make an […]
When Carbonated Games and Microsoft Game Studio launched Uno in 2006 on the Xbox 360 as a part of the Xbox Live Arcade, it was a big deal and welcomed by players and critics. In 2016, Ubisoft and Mattle revamped the digital Uno experience, slowly adding DLC packs over the years. Here in 2024, Uno […]
Leo the Firefighter Cat is an adorable semi-open world firefighting simulator. It is a 3rd person shooter only the player uses a firehose and an ax, as a cat, to put out fires. Think Paw Patrol but with cats, more fire, and even vehicles. Unfortunately, this game is unplayable because there is no option to […]
Developed by a small indie team, Aidan in Danger is a straightforward, retro-style action platformer based around simplicity. It only costs a few bucks and all the Achievements can be unlocked within twenty minutes, making it seem like this is an EastAsiaSoft published release, but there isn’t anything necessarily wrong with this title. It is […]
