A PASSION FOR ALL THINGS GAMES
Game and gadget reviews here.
Originally released on mobile devices and PC a couple years ago, Summer Catchers by Noodlecake has been ported to Switch. Best described as an adventure endless runner, there are some interesting gameplay concepts here but winds up being a lesson in frustration. You play as a little girl on a quest to see a warm […]
Developed by Decemberborn and published by Elden Pixels of Alwa’s Awakening fame, Cathedral is an 8-bit Metroidvania that follows all the tropes of the genre. In the end, it isn’t anything you have not seen before but that doesn’t mean the journey isn’t worth taking. Playing as a non-speaking knight on a quest to open […]
Developed by Qute Corporation and published by Rising Star Games, Natsuki Chronicles is easily one of the best shooters I have played in a long time. With a leveling system that is addicting and approachable for inexperienced players but adjustable enough to challenge the best shooter players on the planet, there is something for everyone […]
Liberated is literally a comic book game but not in the typical cape-wearing Marvel or DC movie sense. Instead, this downloadable title has a lot more in common with V For Vendetta as you play as Neo-like character who joins a group of liberators trying to free the world from the government’s spying eyes. Although […]
Let’s make this short and sweet. SNK Vs Capcom: The Match of the Millennium has to be the best handheld fighting game of all time. If you owned a Neogeo Pocket Color back in the day, chances are you had MotM and encouraged all your friends to get it too. Thanks to the efforts of […]
When Sometimes You released Active Neurons in early 2020, I would have never predicted it would spawn a sequel just a few months later. Now, just a few months after the release of Active Neurons 2, Sometimes You released Active Neurons 3 because apparently they still had some gas left in the tank. Although it […]
War Truck Simulator is the latest “simulator” title to be published by Ultimate Games S.A. Unlike their car mechanic sims, this is a driving simulator with the goal of safely reaching an end point. Unfortunately, this truck simulation suffers from the same problems as most of the other Ultimate Games titles; it simply isn’t fun. […]
Originally released on Xbox One and PC in 2016, Steamroll has rolled onto the Switch eShop and PS4 with some enhancements. Dubbed Steamroll: Rustless Edition, the developers tweaked the lighting system, remade the Trophy requirements, and implemented a better aiming system over the original release. At its core, this puzzle game is still essentially steampunk […]
Solas 128 is a puzzle game that is about placing pieces on a grid to guide a pulsating light to each screen’s goal. On paper, it sounds like a Pipe Dream clone, and it pretty much is, but winds up being something more. The beat-heavy techno soundtrack set to the pumping laser lights is pretty […]
First released in 2017 on PC, All Walls Must Fall is a tech noir tactics game set in Germany several decades in the future and as if the Cold War never ended. Uniquely, agents try and one up each other by traveling back and forth through time to gain the upper hand, trying to avoid […]
