Now available on Xbox GamePass, me and Gillman decided to take this humor-shooter for a spin.

The Crackpet Show (Switch) ReviewThe 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 […]

The Bounty Huntress (Xbox One) Review with streamAn 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 (Xbox One) ReviewSwordship 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.

Papetura (Switch) ReviewA 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 […]

Succubus With Guns (PS4) Review with streamA 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 […]

GBA Single-Pak Link – Tetris Worlds (EU version)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 […]

Intrepid Izzy (Xbox One) Review with streamOriginally released as a physical homebrew Dreamcast release, Intrepid Izzy is a retro throwback that is one-part open world exploration and one-part simplistic brawler. For better and worse, the distinct retro feel of this 5-6 hour adventure is a callback to simpler times. Although there are outfits to collect which grants the player additional abilities […]

Bot Gaiden (Xbox One) ReviewAn over-the-top ridiculous action game, Bot Gaiden mixes the run-and-gun action of Contra, the robot theme and boss battles of Mega Man X, with the speed and slashing of Strider. Then, toss in the lose-the-power-up-when-you-take-damage mechanic of Blaster Master and you’ll have an idea of Bot Gaiden. Even though gameplay mixes elements from the games […]
