A PASSION FOR ALL THINGS GAMES
Created by a small development team, Copycat is an interactive narrative designed to pull at your heart strings. Told through the eyes of an adopted cat, the plot takes center stage as it discusses the heart breaking topics of abandonment, loss, and how you can only really rely on yourself. It is about the length […]
Knight’s Night is the latest $5 platformer published by EastAsiaSoft. The gimmick this time comes from the 1-bit visual presentation, small sprites, and loads of spikes. It isn’t a reflex-based, tough-as-nails, platformer but that doesn’t mean it is without challenge. Playing as a tiny knight sprite, it is your job to reach the end of […]
Undivine is a dark, 2D Metroidvania by indie dev Brainium Games, makers of Aidan in Danger and Beef Cat Ultra. Despite a few minor blemishes, this is a ten-dollar digital download that offers plenty of value and checks all the boxes for what you would expect an exploratory action RPG to be. Playing as some […]
Published by EastAsiaSoft for five bucks, Super Engine GT Turbo SPEC is a simple top-down racing game that is nothing more than occasionally flicking the analog stick left and right while fighting the loose controls and questionable AI. This single-player digital download doesn’t have any features, or even a gimmick, making it unfortunately forgettable. Using […]
Released for $6, Final Zone is the latest retro re-release to be given new life thanks to the dedicated efforts of Ratalaika and Shinyuden. This forgotten isometric Genesis title is a flawed but interesting low cost download that curious players might want to wishlist. Taking control of a walking battle mech, gameplay is basically a […]
Blazing Trail is an isometric action shooter published by EastAsiaSoft for $12.99. Playing as a tank, it is your job to save hostages, run over enemy soldiers, destroy watch towers, and even shoot down aircrafts through a retro pixel art visual presentation. On paper, it lists the checkboxes you would want for a retro-style action […]
Published by EastAsiaSoft for a measly $5, Submarine Survivor offers tremendous value. Sure, it is the next Vampire Survivors clone to come out this week, but this underwater survival simulator has a couple unique gimmicks to call its own. Playing as an auto-shooting submarine, the player has the choice to complete a series of 5-minute […]
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 […]
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 […]
Published by Sometimes You, Mortisomem is an adventure mystery horror game with PS1-ish style visuals. While it is never actually scary, the one-hour quest is rather interesting, different, and wished more games took this approach. Before going any further, it is important to note this is a first-person shooter without an option to invert the […]
