A PASSION FOR ALL THINGS GAMES
Absolute Drift isn’t a racing game, it is a driving game. In fact, a timer is only used in select segments where the player needs to hit a certain score within a time limit. No, this is a game about control, precision, and taking full command of your vehicle. Although it is rather difficult to […]
Originally released in 2014, the Xbox One version was flawed with a clunky interface and an awkward multiplayer mode. While some of these flaws are still present with this Switch port, improvements and enhancements have been made. The entire presentation still looks stunning. Whether admiring the reflection off the cue ball to simply enjoying the […]
It feels like every indie game released these days are either Metroidvanias or Roguelikes and for good reason. They provide an addicting formula to create a memorable experience when done right. Shiren isn’t the first rogue series but it is one that helped make the genre what it is today. Although there have only been […]
Unhatched – Puzzle Adventure Card Game is entirely built around digital cards but it isn’t what you expect. This is not a Pokemon Card Game or Yu-Gi-Oh situation.

2020 is a unique year. We have an ongoing pandemic, murder hornets, and there are two stand out games involving animals. The first was Fight Crab and now we have Alpaca Ball Allstars. Like Fight Crab, Alpaca Ball Allstars is a super dumb game. It is ridiculous and it is dumb… but that is what […]
Originally released in 2012 on PC, They Bleed Pixels is one tough platformer featuring a little demonic girl with meat skewers for hands. This isn’t just about avoid hazards and making difficult jumps, but They Bleed Pixels carries a heavy emphasis on combat. Using only two buttons, one for jump and one for attack, this […]
Terror Squid is a score-based, arcade-style “survive for as long as you can” top-down shooter with a twist. Playing as a triangle, the player constantly moves at a set pace around a spinning global, dropping a never-ending string of bullets in your wake. Avoiding contact with this bullet excrement for as long as possible is […]
