Dispatch
Still, it’s clear that AdHoc plans to continue telling stories in this universe, and the end of this game sets up a potential future season or two, so despite the occasional questionable narrative choices, when and where it counts, Dispatch does not disappoint, standing proudly amongst Telltale’s titans with good...
Wild Hearts S
Overall, I do like Wild Hearts S as a faster and flashier alternative to the games that inspired it. It may not be as newcomer-friendly as Monster Hunter Wilds seems to be, but it’s still a fun time, especially if you’re coming off of that game and looking for something...
Cheers to you, System Shock 2, for living up to your own hype. And cheers to you especially, Nightdive Studios, for bringing it back in such a loving, passionate way so that others may experience such a titan of gaming once again, or for the first time.
Regardless, it’s a sound, engaging mystery that’s easy to get invested in. If you’re a fan of the original game, this character, or adventure games in general, Kathy Rain 2: Soothsayer will not steer you wrong, and proves that despite innovation across the industry, good old-fashioned, LucasArts-inspired adventure games still...
To a T
It’s almost poetic (or pretentious, if you’re cynical), but the fact that to a T is an imperfect game is in itself perfect. After all, as the game tells us, our imperfections make us who we are.
Despelote
Despelote‘s short length will put some people off and the finicky controls could use some fine-tuning and extra settings to adjust. But if you’re even a little intrigued by trailers, the demo, or indeed this review, you’ll find a truly charming and sincere little odyssey with a sweet story to tell and a unique,...
Remember that weird Japanese PS2 game you picked up on a whim in 2004 because it had an interesting cover and the description on the back caught your eye and it turned out to be one of your favorite games of all time? Yeah, that’s Promise Mascot Agency.
Blue Prince
More narratively inclined gamers may struggle with this title as, despite intriguing lore scattered around the many rooms you explore in Mt. Holly Estate, the story is secondary or even tertiary to the experience. The game has a great ending, and the fun doesn’t stop once you hit the end...
Regardless of how you feel about Ubisoft as a whole, it’s wonderful to see Assassin’s Creed Shadows attain such critical and commercial success after such lambasting and endless harassment from the worst corners of the internet. Hopefully, the development team at Ubisoft Quebec can stand proud of the game they’ve...
Wanderstop
A few blemishes could be buffed out, but the blend that Ivy Road has brewed for us here is well worth savoring.
While it’s still a promising effort by a clearly talented studio, that promise seemingly could take several post-launch patches to show through fully. If you’re at all interested in Eternal Strands, I would personally recommend waiting several months to a year before picking it up. While it is available on...
Whether Rise of the Ronin becomes a franchise or exists to speak for itself as a standalone action-adventure, Team Ninja has done a fine job in creating one of 2024’s truly underappreciated titles.
