The Taito Milestones collections combine ten Arcade Archives titles into one lower price compilation. Similar to the first two Milestones titles, Taito Milestones 3 features a smattering of excellently emulated arcade games. This compilation mostly focuses on action games but it isnât without variety. The standout title has to be Bubble Bobble, the iconic co-op […]
Westildâs Law is another high quality, low-cost downloadable title published by Ratalaika Games. Designed around a western theme, this twin-stick shooter is addictive, polished, and fits firmly within Ratalaikaâs quality library of pixel-based games. A town has been overtaken by bandits and it is your job to stop them, rescue hostages, and take down gunslinging […]
Super Spy Raccoon is another original retro-style low-cost arcade release published by Flynnâs Arcade. Unlike the fast-paced platforming of Cash Cow or the high action of Satryn DX, Super Spy Raccoon sort of plays as if classic Donkey Kong was a stealth game. Â Playing as a sneaky raccoon, the playerâs only verbs are run […]
Created by KaleidoGames, Slam and Roll is essentially what happens when you mix Snow Bros. with Bubble Bobble wrapped around a casual sports theme. It is a fun, old-school arcade experience especially when played in local co-op. There are even small hints of classic Buster Bros. and Dig Dug in here too. Aliens have invaded […]
Published by EastAsiaSoft, Pretty Girls Pop Match is the next title in the long running Pretty Girls series only this time it a simple Match-3 Bejeweled-like clone. The gameplay is pick-up-and-playable but unfortunately there is some unfair stage design that holds back the entire experience. Using either the d-pad or analog stick as a mouse […]
Created by the same team that developed Bottle: Pilgrim Redux, Nephise: Asension is their latest walking simulator based around narration, no combat, no leveling, and exploring an open landscape. Published by Catness Game Studio, the only action the player can perform, other than walking from a first-person perspective, is a non-necessary low height jump. Point […]
Spellagis the next survival shooter by EastAsiaSoft. Taking place in a simple rectangle arena, the player can unlock numerous characters with slightly different abilities along the way. The easiest way to summarize this game is pleasant Vampire Survivors-lite except it is wave-based. The first wave only lasts a few seconds, adding time until all 15 […]
Published by Catness Game Studios, Run Tekila Run is a strange top-down action game. If you glance at a screenshot or watch the trailer, it might look somewhat like a Diablo clone but instead stands by itself almost entirely. Everything about this game is so bizarre that it is difficult to tell if it is […]
Published by EastAsiaSoft, O.W.L. Projekt is an environmental isometric puzzle game about manipulating blocks to reach the exit. As a comparison, it is sort of like Captain Toad Treasure Tracker only without the same level of camera control, depth, and fun. The player does not directly control the little wizard guy. Instead, the player controls […]
Instead of bundling a bunch of shooters like in IREMâs first Collection, IREM Collection Vol.2 is loaded with run-and-gun action titles you probably never played. Sadly, this collection lacks historical documentation just like the first release, and there still isnât an option to lower the in-game volume setting, but this collection of games is stupidly […]
