Rusted Moss is a quality Metroidvania by Playism. The pixel art is gorgeous and the twin-stick control grapple gun is super cool. I was very excited to have the opportunity to check out this game and it didn’t disappoint.

Steel Defier (XSX) Review with streamPlaying as the sole survivor on a stranded spaceship, Steel Defier tasks the player to collect a bunch of randomly spawning data discs in each room before the room itself kills you. It is a twitch platformer in which the player is squarely focused on defense; there are no offensive capabilities. Watch my stream embedded […]

GBA Single-Pak Link – Saibara Rieko no Dendou MahjongSaibara Rieko no Mahjong is another Japan exclusive Mahjong game that features a Single-Pak link multiplayer mode for 4 players.

FurryFury: Smash & Roll (Switch) ReviewOriginally released for smartphones, FurryFury: Smash & Roll is a top-down flicking bump brawler. It might sound a little strange, but the gameplay is rather creative and reminds me a lot of Squid’s Odyssey. You know how in pool/billiards where you have to knock the cue ball into other balls and ricochet them into pockets? […]

Once the tiles on the top layer are […]

At the time of this stream, we thought the full version of the game was already released but this was still the Early Access version (which is fine).

Marfusha (XSX) Review with streamA twin-stick tower defense title with roguelite elements, Marfusha is a highly entertaining, addicting action game with an interesting backdrop. To be more accurate, Marfusha is a high-tempo tax-paying gate defense shooter that stars a young anime girl taxed with unrelentless guard duty. For whatever reason, machines have started to invade and the local government […]

Nintendo Badge Arcade (3DS, 2014-2023) – Final Badge Count, only free playsAt the time of this post, Nintendo closed the Wii U and 3DS eShops and the Nintendo Badge Arcade (3DS) with it. For the last several years, I have been milking the free plays almost daily. Now with the eShop closed, my Badge counted ended at 7,275. The sad part, I still have well over […]

Tactics Ogre Reborn (PS4) has a grueling, unfair final boss battleAfter 70-80 hours of playing through the campaign, without losing a single troop, I managed to reach the final battle in Tactics Ogre: Reborn (PS4, digital version). In order the reach this battle, the player must endure a massive 20+ unending string of fights, each taking at least 30 minutest to complete. While it is […]
