A PASSION FOR ALL THINGS GAMES
Game and gadget reviews here.
Avocuddle might be one of the strangest juxtapositions seen this console generation. On one hand, gameplay is Metroidvania-ish with a focus on exploring a number of large worlds filled with creatures that can be defeated using a number of different unlockable weapons. On the other hand is a stupidly silly plot, graphics that starkly contrast […]
Designed specifically for co-op play, ibb & obb is a $15 Nintendo Switch eShop download that is simple, quality fun. Using gravity and creative co-op platforming mechanics, this is the perfect game to play with your significant other or youngster. It is important to note this is strictly a 2-player experience; there is no single […]
Originally released as an indie PC game, Breeder Homegrown: Director’s Cut is an experimental adventure title with some visual novel-like themes. Even though it is dubbed as a horror game in the official description, there isn’t too many scary moments in this 60 minute story. Instead, everything is just odd but with a very serious […]
Wunderling deserves a lot of credit thanks to a creative presentation and providing a new perspective on what it takes to be a hero/villain. At its heart, it is a one-button auto runner but how it is presented to the player is what makes it unique and rather special. Without giving away spoilers, the opening […]
Six years ago, One Finger Death Punch released on Xbox 360 via XNA to critical acclaim. Making a name for itself with stand-out, fast-paced but easy to learn combat, this stick figure brawler turns players into John Wick, Bruce Lee, and Jackie Chan all into one. This sequel takes fighting and gameplay to the next […]
Designed around jump scares, Otherworldly is a low-cost Switch eShop horror title that provides a creepy atmosphere but little else. Playing like a classic tile-based first-person dungeon explorer, the goal is to find treasure in very dark but very claustrophobic hallways, corridors, and rooms. Fast-burning matches are your own source of light so it is […]
Designed as a casual fishing simulation, Fishing Adventure has an RPG loop that has the ability to hook (see what I did there?) players. It by no means stands out or does anything unique, but it is playable for casual Switch owners looking to unwind on a simple digital lake. Playing as a generic fisherman […]
One of the standout titles of Sega’s 16-bit console, Sonic The Hedgehog 2 is beloved among fans and has made its way onto Switch with M2’s SEGA AGES treatment. Like the other games in their AGES line-up, M2 has not only given this title a stellar presentation, it also has received some new features that […]
Originally released on Steam a couple years ago, Ego Protocol is essentially Lemmings meets a Rubik’s Cube. The goal is to guide a little robot to the gate by adjusting parts of the stage. Along the way are hazards and optional items to collect, there are a total of 60 stages to complete, and this […]
Bucket Knight is one of the simplest games released in recent memory. Not to be confused with low quality, this jump-and-shoot 2D pixel-based platformer can be completed in about 30 minutes, only uses two buttons, and all 1000/1000 Achievements (or Trophies if playing on PS4 or Vita) can be easily earned through normal play. This […]
