I’m glad LocoRoco is back, even if it isn’t as perfect as I remember it being when it first released 11 years ago. This remaster adds tilt controls, 4K/HD graphics, rumble, and surround sound, all for a reasonable price. If you’ve never played LocoRoco and you love cute games, now is the time....
TumbleSeed is a game that I don’t think I’ll ever completely finish, but it’s damn impressive for those that dare to stomach its difficulty. If you’re the kind of person looking for a mostly skill based game that is brutally challenging, yet very entertaining, then TumbleSeed is for you. More casual players...
Flinthook
Flinthook is a fine video game that sunk its hooks into me with easy to pick up and play gameplay, a catchy soundtrack, and cute characters. It’s easily a recommendable rogue-lite for any fans of the genre or platformers in general. Just don’t expect the game to anchor you to your...
For a moment there I thought I was growing out of video games, but damn has this past six months restored my faith thanks to Hollow Knight, Owlboy, and Breath of the Wild. We are truly living in a new golden age of gaming.
1-2-Switch
I’d have had no hesitation in recommending 1-2-Switch if it were included with the Switch or maybe $20 max, but as it stands it is far too expensive for the dash of entertainment it provides. 1-2-Switch is a good distraction for parties with people who don’t game much, or those looking...
To summarize in a similar vein to Rise & Shine‘s humor: This game could have been a triumph, but then it took an arrow to the knee. The graphics make you think the gameplay cake is real, but the cake is a lie. All you’ll find are Flappy Birds, a...
Even with its flaws, I think many people will enjoy Earth’s Dawn, but I don’t expect it to be a hit or even a cult classic. If anything those starved for something similar to Odin’s Sphere or an RPG-style beat ’em-up might get some enjoyment out of it, while most...
Pirate Pop Plus feels more like something you’d have found near the release of the Game Boy than something that should be asking for money in 2016 considering there are full-length Game Boy games with a plethora of content available on the eShop for less money, and tons of even cheaper...
While this iteration fixes many of the annoyances of the previous titles, it added a few of its own, though not enough to sour the experience. This is hands-down the best music and rhythm game of the current generation of home consoles, though it isn’t exactly a competitive genre these...
This boring and bland game isn't the spiritual sequel to Mega Man we were hoping for. Mega Man is dead, long live Mega Man!
If you’re a fan of Nier and looking to get your fix until the proper sequel is out, it is easy to recommend Anima. RPGs rarely hold my attention but I happily sank my time into this one no problem. There’s enough quality content here that it feels like the developer...
If you are tired of always playing Cards Against Humanity, Monopoly, and that Gargoyles board game on Laserdisc, then Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes will certainly give you the fix you’re looking for, pending you have friends ready to be committed to the task at hand. If not, Gargoyles is always a...
