This week, Gillman and I try out some Orcs Must Die 3. It seems to be more of the same, which is by no means a bad thing, as real time action mixed with tower defense is usually a good combo.

Ayo the Clown (Switch) ReviewAyo The Clown is a family friendly 2.5D platformer designed for young or inexperienced players. While not has complicated, difficult, or action packed as a Mario, Kirby, or even a Yoshi platformer, Ayo is purposely slower paced and more methodical, making it a perfect entry point for beginning gamers. Long time platforming fans, however, will […]

Everything I said in my Switch review holds the […]

Mind Maze (Xbox One) Review with streamMind Maze is a simple puzzle game where you and your opponent alternate placing lines on a tiled grid. The player who completes the square, essentially the 4th line, gets a point and another immediate turn.

MouseBot: Escape from CatLab (Xbox One) Review with streamA 3D auto-runner, MouseBot: Escape from CatLab is an uncomplicated on-rails platformer that doesn’t offer much in terms of variety but has approachable design and simplicity.
