A PASSION FOR ALL THINGS GAMES
Game and gadget reviews here.
Developed by the same artists that created Under Leaves, a casual search-n-find game, Little Mouse’s Encyclopedia uses the same water painted art style, whimsical soundtrack, and overall laid back experience to create a game that isn’t really a game at all. This by no means is a mark against its quality just understand this is […]
From the developers that created the new Genesis game Coffee Crisis, Bite the Bullet is a side scrolling action title sort of like Contra but with a twist – you can eat your foes when they are defeated. That’s right. Humans, flying drones, alien gross zombie creature things, it doesn’t matter. You can eat them […]
Cannon Brawl takes the harvesting mechanic of an RTS game, blends it with tower defense placement and upgrades, and incorporates the 2D wild action of Worms (or Scorched Earth) into a combination that is unique and addicting. The small development team took the best features of these more niche genres and created something special. There […]
Instead of raiding tombs, Moon Raider is about collecting gems within a lunar environment to save your moon-based mother. Although playable with enjoyment, there are some quirks that hold back this downloadable Metroidvania-lite. Moon Raider is sort of a Metroidvania-lite because you don’t gain a tremendous amount of new abilities throughout the campaign. The world […]
Gallic Wars: Battle Simulator mixes RTS gameplay with roguelite tones to create something a bit unique. It just a shame this interesting concept stutters with a cumbersome interface and lack of direction. The opening tutorial is quick but doesn’t explain much or the gameplay very well. As the player places units on the map, the […]
A single player twin-stick shooter, Sturmfront: The Mutant War – Ubel Edition features high action and steep difficulty. It isn’t the best twin-sticker out there as there are a few bright spots but the broken pacing issues easily frustrates. With the cover obviously knocking off classic Doom, you play as a purposely stereotypical blond Rambo […]
Like a 90s mascot platformer, Stitchy in Tooki Trouble is a simple but ultimately forgettable single player sidescroller. With flavorless level design and a flawed scoring system, this “me too” platformer is easily overshadowed by the countless other titles on the Switch eShop. You play as Stitchy, a scarecrow on a quest to retrieve stolen […]
Made by a 15 year old developer and published by Sometimes you, Escape from Life Inc is a Lost Vikings-style puzzle platformer with a comedic narrative. The graphical presentation looks like it was created in MS Paint but don’t let the visuals be distracting as this 3-5 hour romp plays better than you might assume. […]
Made by the same developer that created the trial and error puzzler Swim Out, Rip Them Off is a bizarrely interesting mix of capitalism and tower defense. To be clear, Rip Them Off is referring to screwing over customers to maximize profit and has nothing to do with the removal of clothes in an aggressive […]
Twins Abra and Cadabra wanted to use color to dye their clothes but mistakenly unleashed Colormageddon. Now they need to use their chromagic powers to create spells to retain their newly dyed dresses. The story might be a little goofy but developers Flying Beast Labs needed to attach the color element directly to the gameplay. […]
