Rusted Moss is a quality Metroidvania by Playism. The pixel art is gorgeous and the twin-stick control grapple gun is super cool. I was very excited to have the opportunity to check out this game and it didn’t disappoint.

For whatever reason, machines have started to invade and the local government […]

Break Arts II (PS4) ReviewAlthough it might seem like some sort of Gundam imitator, Break Arts II is actually a racing game. Uniquely, the auto-accelerating feature and deep customization sets this gotta-go-fast racer apart but ultimately loses its boost power by the second lap.

Touch this incoming darkness coming from […]

VIDEOCAST – Record of Lodoss War-Deedlit in Wonder Labyrinth- (PC)An obvious clone of Castlevania Symphony of the Night, Record of Lodoss War-Deedlit in Wonder Labyrinth- could easily be mistaken as a sequel to Konami’s fan favorite title.

REVIEW – Star Sky (Switch) ReviewA Literal Walking Simulator The term “walking simulator” has been used in a humorous way to describe some laid back games recently, games that usually involve minimal input from the player. Star Sky is quite literally a walking simulator as the only buttons for input are pressed for walking or walking faster. From a nighttime […]
