I want nothing more than to like Alone in the Dark, in fact it was one of my more anticipated games of March, but the more time I've spent with this game, the harder it has become to do so. Sure, updates and fixes will address the performance issues and...
Reveil
But you come to Reveil for the horror, right? You come to be frightened and terrified and this game achieves that with great success. Sure, it's a bit rough around the edges in a few places and a bit of extra refinement could have done wonders to tighten up the...
So, when you boil it down, the main thing to take from the Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons Remake is that this is still a great adventure experience except now it uses graphics that befits its entertaining gameplay. This is a remake that is as pure as the term...
Balatro really is a fantastic, ingenious, and genuinely unique game. It features the perfect blend of simplistic and accessible game mechanics matched up with broad, deep, and complex mathematical systems that will entertain and challenge seasoned card players. It's a brilliant example of how the roguelike formula can be used...
If you have any desire or curiosity to buy Skull and Bones, I'd suggest either waiting for it to drop in price, for it to be added to a more accessible subscription service other than Ubisoft+, or for more content to be added as part of its live design. Or...
But here's the thing, the middling world activities and RPG elements don't detract from the fact that Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden is a remarkably engaging story to follow. From the first moment you'll be entranced by the tale of Antea and Red and the contract they have been tasked...
Essentially, don't expect to find a revamped or a completely new Phantom Abyss experience with this 1.0 update, because that isn't what this is. Instead, what you'll find is simply an upgrade and slight improvement to various aspects and parts of the entire framework that constitutes what Team WIBY created...
With a short duration that's only a few hours long and very limited replayability, The Cub is an ideal game to work through in an evening or two, and for that matter, and considering the interesting storyline and pretty graphics, it's a decent showing from Demagog. It's a shame the...
And to me this perfectly sums up Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown. For a multitude of reasons this game is an absolute blast. I've had a huge amount of fun exploring the world and taking on all manner of dangerous beasts and beings from myth and legend, so much...
Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora has a lot going for it, and the game should be celebrated for that alone. If you adore or simply enjoy Cameron's sci-fi world, you will appreciate your time in this action-adventure title. But, if you were hoping that you would see the impact and talent...
Astral Ascent isn't looking to redefine what you have to come to expect from a roguelike, but it is clear that what Hibernian Workshop has created is a very complete, coherent, and competent example of what roguelikes at their finest can be. It's rewarding, fulfilling, fast-paced, and accentuated with a...
But all in all, American Arcadia is a fun and engaging game. Out of the Blue is clearly talented at storytelling and has a knack for creating interesting puzzles, but I can't help but feel like this game is playing it a bit too safe at times with how basic...
