Little Nightmares II Review
Platforms: PC, Xbox One (reviewed), Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, Google Stadia Back in 2017 I reviewed the first Little Nightmares game and absolutely loved it. It even ended up being one of my favorite games of that year thanks to both its creepiness and charm. To say that Little Nightmares II had a lot to […]
Cyber Shadow Review
Platforms, Linux , Mac, Playstation 4, Playstation 5, Switch, Windows, and Xbox One I quickly realised something terrible playing Cyber Shadow, a new throwback ninja platformer from Aarne “MekaSkull” Hunziker and Yacht Club Games. I realised that I was absolutely and unequivocally not the kind of person that Cyber Shadow was designed for, nor could […]
Battletoads Review
Platforms: Xbox One (reviewed) and Microsoft Windows It’s been over 25 years since the world has been graced with a Battletoads game. My first and only experience with the franchise came with the 1991 NES game. This game is infamous for its punishing difficulty and like a lot of people, I was never able to […]
Spelunky 2 Review
Platforms: PlayStation 4 (reviewed) and Microsoft Windows Eight years ago I reviewed a little indie game called Spelunky. At the time I enjoyed it and gave it a five star review, but little did I know in the years following, it would become one of my favorite games ever made. Needless to say, I’m coming […]
Children of Morta Review
Platforms: Xbox One, PlayStation 4 (reviewed), Nintendo Switch, Microsoft Windows, Linux, Classic Mac OS Family has always been the most important thing in my life. If a movie, television show, or game has a depiction of a caring, tight-knit family at the core of its story, I’m almost certainly on board. Children of Morta offers […]
DOOM Eternal Review
Platforms: Playstation 4, Stadia, Switch, Xbox One, and Windows (reviewed) DOOM Eternal is a massive disappointment. Believe me, I take no pleasure in typing that, which incidentally, is a little less pleasure that I get from playing through this game’s overwrought campaign. DOOM (2016) was that rate game that defies expectations and ends up setting […]
Panzer Dragoon: Remake Review
Platforms: Stadia, Switch (reviewed), and Windows Panzer Dragoon is one of those imperfect perfect games. When it came out for the Saturn, it was used as ammunition in the console wars. It was a game that bolstered the arcade expertise of Sega’s developers to make a game of pure spectacle. The game’s desolate world overrun with […]
Glass Masquerade Review
Platforms: PC/Mac (Steam), Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4 (reviewed), Xbox One, Google Play The introduction of trophies and achievements into video games has been a blessing and a curse. On one hand, they may push us to do things we otherwise might not, allowing us to get more out of our games. For me though, seeing […]
Revenge of the Bird King Review
Platforms: Nintendo Switch (reviewed), PlayStation Vita Have you ever bought a game on deep discount (I’m talking for like less than a dime) and still felt like you wasted your money? That’s about where I am with Revenge of the Bird King. There are glimmers of a decent game here, but there are far too […]
