A PASSION FOR ALL THINGS GAMES
Game and gadget reviews here.
Most easily described as a Mario Party mini-game presented as a full experience, Clumsy Rush is a multiplayer party title with limited appeal. You and a few friends take control of hippos that walk up right like humans. The gimmick, however, is controlling how these hippos move. Instead of just tilting the analog stick, each […]
Just like Oniken, Digerati and Joymasher released Odallus: The Dark Call, a new 8-bit NES style action platformer with some light RPG elements. Playing similarly to Castlevania 3, players take control of a father looking to take revenge with a big sword and several sub weapons. Luckily, Odallus is not as difficult as Oniken so […]
What can easily be mistaken for a legit lost NES game, Oniken: Unstoppable Edition on Xbox One plays similarly to action classics like Ninja Gaiden, Contra, or Shinobi. This is an authentic old-school experience right down to the limited 8-bit color palette, chiptune soundtrack, and brutally high difficulty. Playing as a badass ninja with a […]
What has to be one of the most cinematic games of all time, Lost Ember is an emotional and breathtaking journey from beginning to end. As if playing a poem or story book, this downloadable title is all about the journey, the story, the amazing thoughtful presentation, and its heart sobbing ending. There is no […]
Like Dark Quest 2 before it, Story of a Gladiator by Brain Seal is a single screen action beat’em up that is super simple yet highly addictive. Playing as a gladiator that lost everything and basically has nothing left to lose, the player is forced to fight horde-mode style until all opponents are dead. Upon […]
There are so many simulator games available on the market, with more releasing every month, it is curious to see what will pop up next. Bee Simulator is the next game with “simulator” in the title although this is rather misleading. Instead of being a true insect simulation, this is more of a family friendly […]
Ported from an old PC Flash game, Strike Force Kitty has some depth but only if you can suffer through the grueling opening hours of trial and error. This 2D side-scrolling auto attacker is actually a pretty complex title and there are zero instructions and zero tutorials. Making matters worse, the few words that are […]
A super simple game that anyone can play, Marblelous Animal tasks the player with rolling an animal shaped marble into a hole using the Switch’s gyro controls. Even though the overall concept and musical soundtrack is easy going, there are a few basic housekeeping flaws that push the overall experience into the frustration column. The […]
Since the sun stopped shinning, the remaining citizens of Earth stopped keeping time. Therefore, it is a perpetual 1988 in this 2D dystopia and murderous robots are trying to take their revenge. The story in Black Future ‘88 is dismal, and even a little Matrix-ish, but the entire experience leans into this bleak narrative. Playing […]
Designed around an ancient Roman theme, Nonogram Prophecy is essentially Picross only with a different coat of paint. This is a casual puzzle game that is suitable for all ages and should easily please fans of similar pen and paper puzzle games like Sudoku. Presented like a sheet of graph paper, each puzzle is composed […]
