A PASSION FOR ALL THINGS GAMES
Love Chemistry – Sibella’s Formula is a $6 digital download published by EastAsiaSoft. This action platformer is basically a Mega Man clone designed entirely around a very strange plot point – the protagonist develops an endless supply of love serum and shoots it just like Mega Man’s arm cannon. When this mid control formula hits […]
Sequel to Secret Paws – Cozy Offices, Secret Paws – Cozy Apartments is exactly the same game. In fact, the scenery doesn’t change much, and stages could basically merge between the two titles. Still, this basic Where’s Waldo clone is cozy as hekk and offers a couple hours of casual, low stress stimulation. Using the […]
Published by EastAsiaSoft for $5, Springbot: The Last Spark is a side scrolling indie platformer composed of 35 levels. While I have covered many EAS budget platformers over the years, this one, unfortunately, is easily one of the worst. Playing as robot with springs for legs, the goal is to simply make it to the […]
Published by Sometimes You, Poetic Trio is a minimalist walking simulator with very little interactivity. Segmented into three chapters revolving around rain, wind, and snow, the lack of excitement and generic presentation doesn’t offer much other than an easy 1,000 gamerscore in about an hour. Built using stock assets within the Unreal Engine, the only […]
Have you ever wanted to get into Skyrim or the later Diablo games but were intimidated by their depth, time commitment, and complexity? Tale of Dark Lands has you covered as it is basically like a linear Skyrim-lite. The purposely low-poly visual style, which is designed around humorous tones, is also the same as Drunken […]
Nitro City Racing, a $5 digital download by EastAsiaSoft, isn’t a typical racing game. It is basically a traffic, almost road rage managing, driving simulator designed around driving fast, without turning, and while narrowing avoiding the other vehicles on the road. Remember that game Stuntman on PS2? It sort of reminds me of that but […]
Designed as an homage to Metal Gear Solid on PSOne, Spy Drops adopts some rogue elements into its retro sneaking action. Fans of the original MGS will appreciate the callback, but I fear newcomers that do not understand its inspiration will be left scratching their head. The nods to PSOne MGS is obvious. From the […]
A 2D single-player side-scrolling roguelite, Atomic Owl is dynamic hack-and-slash platformer published by EastAsiaSoft. There is a lot happening in this action game but struggles to find a cohesive gimmick to gel it all together. Playing as an owl who is chilling with his ramen eating bird friends, disaster strikes and you get knocked out […]
ININ, Tozai Games, and Irem have re-released R-Type Dimensions III on current gen platforms with significant visual upgrades. But even with the visual overhaul, how well does this shooter hold up today? R-Type III is known as one of the hardest SNES games ever made. Really, one of the hardest games released on any system, […]
Originally released on PS3 many years ago, Soldner-X-2: Final Prototype was later re-released on PS4 and now on Switch as the Definitive Edition. Being honest, I am not sure what has been added to make this the “Definitive Edition” but the there is still a lot of quality shooter gameplay here at a smooth framerate. […]
