A PASSION FOR ALL THINGS GAMES
It is true. Roxy Raccoon’s Pinball Party is a pinball game. However, this title is shortchanging this low-cost digital release. Instead, it almost plays more like a Mario Party mini game compilation because there are so many other things to do other than playing pinball. What this ten-dollar digital download lacks in polish, it overcorrects […]
Ghost Teen Escape from Limbo is another simple, low-cost, single-screened platformer published by EastAsiaSoft. The goal is to reach the exit in each of the 50 stages but there is a gimmick in completing each stage – you need to die. This is a puzzle platformer. Meaning, players need to figure out how to reach […]
Doug’s Nightmare is an oddly creative but super repetitive $6 digital download. Playing as a banana with anxiety, gameplay takes place from a top-down perspective with twin-stick shooter controls. Think Smash T.V. but without fun, excitement, and purpose. Not that this twin stick shooter is without personality, it is just pointless. Why are you playing […]
Published by EastAsiaSoft with a five-dollar asking price, Ratyrinth is a simple but pleasant short-burst platformer. The hour-long quest is loaded with easy Achievements and basic yet appreciated gameplay. Playing as rat, the goal is to reach the end of each stage without bumping into a hazard – your typical platforming gameplay. The gimmick comes […]
Space Mercenary Defense Force is a five-dollar Vampire Survivors clone published by EastAsiaSoft. The biggest difference is that this auto-shooter takes place in space, and you defend against aliens instead of ghouls. Beginning as a slow-moving spaceship with a pea shooter, the player gains access to new weaponry and upgrades as gold, which is obtained […]
Published by EastAsiaSoft, the company known for releasing bite-sized games at affordable prices that are loaded with easy big-point Achievements, has released Flightpath: Adventures in Venaris, a game that mostly goes against their norm. Although the price point is still low, this is a meater game, one that actually makes the player work to unlock […]
In case you couldn’t tell from the title, SokoFrog is a simple, cutesy Sokoban block pushing puzzle game. It only costs five dollars, doesn’t take long to unlock all 2,000 Achievement points, and offers some casually mild entertainment along the way. Playing as the frog, it is your job to push the key block onto […]
Pretty Girls Escape PLUS is the latest game in this long running EastAsiaSoft published series only this time it focuses on matching-colored blocks. There isn’t much replay value in this simple puzzle game, but it only takes a few minutes to unlock the Platinum trophy. Imagine a Tetris well pre-filled with colored blocked. If two […]
Violet Wisteria is a 2D side-scrolling action platformer based around Japanese fantasy. Unfortunately, the tri-combat system is both its main gimmick but also its biggest flaw. When playing on Xbox, the “A” button jumps while the three other face buttons are assigned a specific attack that is associated with a color: red, white, and blue. […]
10 Seconds to Win! is another low cost, easy Achievement point 2D platformer published by EastAsiaSoft. It took me about 10 minutes to earn all the Achievements and almost double that to clear all the stages. Its brevity shouldn’t be confused with low quality, however. While it lacks replay value, the short-burst gameplay is mindlessly […]
