A PASSION FOR ALL THINGS GAMES
Speeder Ship, published by Elantri Games at a low cost on the PSN, is a boring and broken endless tube slide with zero redeeming qualities. The player is responsible for controlling the ship’s left and right movement around the perimeter of the screen as it auto moves down a tube. Like that TV show Hole-In-The-Wall, […]
Disney’s The Lion King: Simba’s Mighty Adventure is a forgotten Gameboy Color sequel (also a version on PS1) that features a pointless and nearly broken 2-player link cable mode. The linked TAG option is a race to hold a star for 2 minutes longer than your opponent. But Nala has the advantage as her Start […]
Published by EastAsiaSoft for $5, Hegzis is a low-stress hex-based puzzle game about placing hexagons on a grid. If a row of hexagons stretch from one end to the other, the formed line disappears so more pieces can be placed. The goal might be to place X amount of pieces, create a certain amount of […]
When the Gameboy Color version of Mario Tennis is connected to the N64 version via the Transfer Pak, data can be swapped and new content gets unlocked. Sadly, the Transfer Pak functionality was removed from the Switch Online version of Mario Tennis on N64… but there is a reason why the GBC characters were not […]
Smash Zombies is another budget title published by Elantri Games. Other than the easy Platinum, there is no reason to play this boring one-button game. Like a vertical shooter, a car automatically drives upwards at a 45-degree angle. Pressing a button pivots the car’s direction to the opposite angle and the goal is to run […]
Published by Elantri Games for a very low price on the Playstation Store, Balloon Jump is a one button mobile game with nothing to offer other than what is probably easiest Platinum Trophy on PSN. Essentially vertical Flappy Bird, the player uses one button to make a balloon jump vertically in pre-determined increments. Along the […]
Nintendo’s Wave Race series originated on the Gameboy, not on the N64, and was one of the few original Gameboy titles to support the 4-Player Adapter. Wave Race on Gameboy still holds up today and the two different modes bring variety to the gameplay.
Originally released years ago, Steredenn: Binary Stars bundles all extra content and gameplay improvements into one quality package. It is a tough but fair horizontal roguelite shmup that has plenty to offer including local co-op. This fluid shooter has one important element to highlight – it is actually beatable (when you put in some work). […]
CarGo! is more than a creative play-on-words. It is a frantic, single-screened action puzzle game best played with local co-op partners about hauling cargo, get it, car-go? As a quick comparison, CarGo! is almost like Overcooked, that multiplayer cooking game, but with cars. Instead of walking back and forth in a kitchen to pick up […]
The Chromatic handheld is a new Gameboy Color released by a 3rd party called ModRetro. This handheld gaming system has all the features of Nintendo’s original device but with some nifty backlit screen options. Adding value to the $200 price point, ModRetro also includes their own officially licensed version of Tetris. Unfortunately, the multiplayer mode […]
