A PASSION FOR ALL THINGS GAMES
To promote the release of Super Mario Bros. 3 (NES) in the west, Nintendo partnered with McDonald’s to release a unique Happy Meal box and a set of four toys. I personally had the goomba and spring Mario toy. I always wanted the puff-up Koopa Troopa but never saw/play with/got one. However, I remember playing […]
Fury Unleashed has been in development for over five years and the final product speaks to the long development cycle. This 2D side-scrolling action rogue platformer is always tough but fair and will keep you coming back for more. Roguelikes are a dime a dozen these days but Fury Unleashed gets it right. Each encounter […]
Released in 2001 on Sega’s Dreamcast, IllBleed was a Resident Evil clone developed by Crazy Games and published by AIA.

It is […]
Wurroom isn’t a game. It is a trippy ten minute claymation video in which the player has minimal control and is basically just supposed to strap-in and enjoy the ride. This feels like a final project from a couple college students, making weird stuff for the sake of being weird. At a few times, the […]
Released on PC a couple years ago, Bohemian Killing is now available on Nintendo Switch. A who-done-it walking simulator, this courtroom drama should please fans that enjoy digging deep into the details of a story. For a game that is moderately priced, there are higher than expected presentation values here. What makes Bohemian Killing so […]
Did you know bugs go to school to learn how to pick up refrigerators and build block forts? Neither did I but apparently this is an important skill for little critters to master. The only thing more ridiculous than the game concept are the loose physics. Bug Academy is a 2.5D side scroller where the […]
