A PASSION FOR ALL THINGS GAMES
With obvious inspiration from Tecmo’s Mighty Bombjack series, Super Jagger Bomb is a one note, repetitive arcade-like experience with little to offer. Playing as some dude in a weird hook nose mask, the goal is to collect all the balloons for each of the game’s 100 available stages. With no offensive capabilities whatsoever, the player […]
Drill Dozer and WarioWare Twisted were the only 2 Gameboy Advance games to feature a force feedback Rumble Pak built directly into the game cartridge. However, some games added non-obvious Rumble Pak support when played specifically on a Nintendo Gamecube Gameboy Player using a standard wired controller inserted into Controller Slot 1. All games that […]
The Last Hero of Nostalgaia is the latest Soulsborn release but it has one key difference from this now crowded genre – humor. While the gameplay is still very much a die-try-again, at least you’ll have a chuckle along the way. Very much self-aware, the game’s narrator guides the clueless player through the game both […]
Little Kong: Jungle Fun is a very simple auto-runner without any replayability. Sure, there is a local high score table that monitors the top 5 scores and the stage design changes slightly with each run, but it is a mindless one-button experience marred with technical issues. Playing as a gorilla with a bouncing hat, it […]
Exclusive to Japan, this simple block placing puzzle game is unexpectedly entertaining. Using a set number of blocks, each puzzle must be solved before your opponent to win. Shooting blocks across an Excel spreadsheet sounds like a horrible idea but I promise it is way more fun than it sounds. This is Single-Pak link!
A budget release set at $4.99, Car Mechanic Pinball puts a creative spin on classic Pinball gameplay. Instead of flicking a ball against bumpers, the player uses flippers to launch a car into pacing car mechanics and gas canisters. Hit the mechanics enough times to fix the car then park it on the side of […]
This week, me and Gillman play through the opening moments of Blind Fate, a new 2.5D action adventure title. Seasoned indie-developers Troglobytes Games, and global publishing house 101XP, are thrilled to announce the official release of Blind Fate: Edo No Yami, the sci-fi action-adventure game based in a world now ruled by bloodthirsty and ruthless […]
Seep, the makers of Swords & Bones, have released another retro-style action platformer follow-up called Roar or Revenge. Controlling a sword swinging barbarian that looks like Conan, it is your job to collect some sacred treasures and smite evil. With one button to attack and another to jump, the experience remains simple and reminds me […]
For a $4.99 top-down billiards title, it is hard to knock Casual Challenge Players’ Club too hard for trying something a little different. Instead of supporting standard 8-Ball or 9-Ball rulesets, the game puts more approachable, but still highly challenging, pool tasks against the player. The main mode places a handful of preset balls on […]
Created by the same team that released the indie hit A Robot Named Fight along with a YouTuber, C.A.R.L. is a classic platforming action game that takes a lot of notes from retro DOS titles like Jazz Jackrabbit and even Cave Story. It is a new, retro-style game well done and has plenty of personality […]
