Published by Ultimate Games, Theatre of Sorrows is a visual novel roguelike with a focus on player choice. With many endings, a deep crafting system, and nicely drawn comic book style art panels, there is a lot to chew if you are into text heavy narratives. The story is the emphasis in this $10 digital […]
Queeny Army is another low-cost EastAsiaSoft release that offers short-burst quality entertainment and easily obtainable Trophies. In fact, you’ll earn all the Trophies after finishing the second stage so Platinum hunters should take note. This action adventure spans six stages and features an all-female cast of Contra-style run-and-gun action. The action isn’t as fluid as […]
Originally released in 2014 on PC, combat-focused roguleite platformer Vagante is now available on Xbox, PS4/5, and Nintendo Switch with local and online co-op. The high level of difficulty will constantly crush you without mercy but you will keep coming back for more. Composed of well animated tiny 2D sprites and dark environments, Vagante is […]
A single player first person puzzle game, Summertime Madness is a walking simulator and has similar gameplay to In Rays Of The Light, another Sometimes You published title. Without a UI or any direction on what to do, the landscape subtly guides the player on where to go next, creating a memorable experience. There is […]
Demoniaca: Everlasting Night combines the exploratory action of Metroid but implements fighting game mechanics from something like Street Fighter. It is a unique pairing that works for better and worse. Originally released on PC in 2019, EastAsiaSoft has released this dark and mature game to all current gen consoles. A young girl’s village was burned […]
When SNK released the Neogeo Pocket Color Selection Vol.1 on Switch and later on Steam, there was hope that eventually a Vol.2 would become available. Until (if) that day comes, NGPC fans now have one additional game to enjoy, SNK VS Capcom: Card Fighters’ Clash and Code Mystics once again worked their magic to create […]
Ported from its original mobile release, Headland on Switch might look like a mobile game, right down to its mostly vertical stage design orientation, but its gameplay loop is more addicting than it has any right to be. This is a good example of not judging a book by its cover because there is plenty […]
With purposely designed chunky PSOne-style polygons, Breakneck City is a retro low-poly beat’em up carrying a 90s vibe. Even with a few blemishes, this game is a quality throwback to simpler times. Instead of saving your girlfriend from an angry gang, two female bruisers take to the streets to seek revenge on arsonists. The plot […]
Mega Cat Studio, who brought us Coffee Crisis and Bite The Bullet, along with Retrotainment Games, creators of Haunted Halloween ’86, have been working with 8BitLegit, Gradual Games, and 6502 Collective to release Trophy, a new retro NES game inspired by 8-bit Mega Man. Not to be confused with Sony’s Playstation Trophy system, this is […]
A different type of shooter, RazerWire: Nanowars is an arcade-like experience with an extensive upgrading system that is best played in short bursts. From a stationary screen, your home base spaceship is located on the left with incoming enemies attacking from the right. Instead of navigating the ship, the player actually controls a cursor that […]
