A PASSION FOR ALL THINGS GAMES
Undercooked – Like Crazy Chicken: Pirates 3D, Crazy Chicken: Director’s Cut 3D is a rerelease of the original lightgun DSiWare shooter only with poorly implemented stereoscopic 3D support. The inclusion of online leaderboards is a step forward but with only two levels and no way to lose, Director’s Cut 3D is a short lived one-trick […]

Pull Your Balls. Shoot Your Balls. – Ball Fighter is a simple puzzler that uses a typical match-3 style of gameplay and was originally released as a PC title then later ported to DSiWare in late 2009.

The end result is something that offers […]
It’s not bad. It’s not good. – The Jewel Master series has seen a several incarnations on a few different systems throughout the last few years with the biggest push from Storm City Games on the original DS handheld.
