A PASSION FOR ALL THINGS GAMES
Revenge of the Smurfs feature a total of 5 Single-Pak linkable mini-games but only one is available by default. Unless you want to suffer through the single player campaign, a code can be entered to unlock the rest. Unfortunately, these mini-games feel like chores and are just not fun. And why are the Smurfs out […]
A third-person adventure outfitted with creative cel-shaded visuals, Wavetale is a heartfelt adventure that sort of mixes the exploration of The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker but with the deeper emotional narrative of RiME into something uniquely its own. Although the flaws are obvious, the story and water surfing mask almost all the imperfections. […]
Released only in Japan, there were a few titles in the Simple 2960 Tomodachi series. Vol.2 features classic Arkanoid/Break-Out gameplay and there are two Single-Pak link multiplayer modes. Learn about them here (one mode is easily more fun than the other).
Now available on Xbox GamePass, me and Gillman decided to take this humor-shooter for a spin.
The Crackpet Show takes the Smash T.V. gameplay and plot but swaps the beefy, shirtless dudes with mutated animals that are reminiscent of Happy Tree Friends. Ideally played with local multiplayer, this twin-stick shooter (which is really more like a single stick shooter with auto-aim) requires more patience than most. This top-down action game has […]
An indie Metroidvania, The Bounty Huntress is a simple game released at a budget price. While the generic visual style leaves plenty to be desired, the gameplay would have been casually enjoyable if it wasn’t marred by technical issues and poor quality of life choices. Clearly inspired by Castlevania titles, you play as a female […]
Swordship takes the standard shooter gameplay and literally flips it to create a unique experience. Most shooters have you flying some type of plane either from left to right, or vertically, using one or two buttons to shoot with the goal of hitting a high score or making it to the end of the stage. […]
A point-and-click environmental puzzling solving adventure game, Papetura is a quality digital download. An emotional game, one built around curiosity and creativity, this hand-crafted title took a better part of a decade to complete by a solo developer. This is a labor of love and it clearly shows. Playing as a crinkled piece of paper […]
A single player arena shooter with a monster/zombie theme, Succubus with Guns has an initially intriguing theme but ultimately suffers from repetition and jank. The main playable character is also a mock Lara Croft clone but with horns. On paper, the solo Horde mode gameplay sounds like your average 3rd person “stay alive until […]
Tetris Worlds is a strange GBA game and shouldn’t be confused with the corresponding console versions with the same name. The American version (GBA) only has Multi-Pak link mode whereas the European release supports both Single-Pak and Multi-Pak link. Unfortunately, the overall Tetris experience is compromised quite a bit when playing head-to-head in the multiboot […]
