A PASSION FOR ALL THINGS GAMES
A 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 […]
As a polar bear riding a chicken, Chicken Rider is an endless runner built with the same gameplay formula as Jetpack Joyride. Since the game constantly provides new objectives every attempt, the gameplay loop becomes addictive as there is always something to strive for other than achieving a high score. The player has the ability […]
Zero Gravity Racing Redout is the latest high-speed F-Zero-type racer now available on Nintendo Switch as the Lightspeed Edition which includes a bunch of free DLC. With a unique control scheme and tons of single player content, there is enough here to justify the higher $40 price point. While these are F-Zero/Wipeout style futuristic vehicles […]
Car Trader has the player bidding on wrecked cars, then click on a button to fix them, then click another button to sell them hoping to earn a profit. What happens when you earn a profit? Nothing. What happens when you lose money? Nothing. What happens if you don’t bid on a car? Nothing. The […]

Death will inevitably strike the player but the goal is to take as many Yakuza with […]

Featuring both rulesets from Puyo Puyo 2 and Puyo Puyo Fever, Champions essentially acts a compilation of the best of both worlds. From […]
Finish It Almost one year ago, Mr. Brett Weiss and Schiffer Publishing released The SNES Omnibus: The Super Nintendo and Its Games, Vol. 1 (A-M), an impressive coffee table book that documents the first half of the SNES library in painstaking detail. Finishing the job, SNES Omnibus Vol. 2 (N-Z) is now available and is […]
A twin-stick rogue-lite, Blazing Beaks is a simple, straight to the point action game that carries hours of play-die-repeat entertainment value. Gameplay-wise, there is a lot in common with games like Mana Spark with one of the biggest differences being all action takes place on a single screen giving more of a winner-takes-all arena vibe. […]
