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 […]
Wunderling Review
Platforms: Switch and Windows (Steam) As I’ve gotten older, platformers have become less and less appealing to me. I’m not sure when it happened, but I don’t find too much joy in them anymore. They seem to be either designed to be a good entrance point for someone more new to them, which is not […]
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 […]
Sagebrush Review
Platforms: Mac, Playstation 4, Switch, Windows, and Xbox One (reviewed) Tackling cults isn’t really something done in video games beyond “hey, there’s this cult and they’re out to kill you, so kill them first.” You get occasional things like The Church in the Darkness that deals with infiltrating a cult to get someone out, but […]
Estiman Review
Platforms: Microsoft Windows, Nintendo Switch (reviewed), Android, iOS Sometimes I need a game to act as a palette cleanser. I just recently spent nearly 75 hours playing through Assassin’s Creed Odyssey and I haven’t been ready to jump into another big, story-driven game just yet. So I’ve been looking for more relaxing and bite-sized gaming […]
Concrete Genie Review
Platforms: PlayStation 4 I’ve always had a great love and deep appreciation for art of all forms. Drawing and doodling have been some of my favorite hobbies for years, and when I was in grade school, I was quite the artist. Sadly, I never honed or improved those skills, and to this day, I still […]
