When approaching anything from developer Compile Heart, players tend to know what they're going to get. Assets will be recycled to save on development costs, the plot will be silly and take a bulldozer to the fourth wall, and the gameplay won't be extraordinary or even particularly original. Understanding that...

Davey Wreden is the name that will probably garner the most attention for Wanderstop. As one of the two creative minds behind The Stanley Parable and the dude behind The Beginner’s Guide, it’s a safe bet that whatever he does, at the bare minimum, will be fascinating. It doesn’t seem...

It’s tough being a slacker. This is a common truism for people who write game reviews, need to accomplish heroic amounts of tasks at work or just don’t feel like attending school. It's the latter that's most applicable for the protagonist of Never 7: The End of Infinity. Our boy...

Let’s get this out of the way up front: Ever 17: The Out of Infinity comes highly recommended. Part of the Infinity series of visual novels, this title is where the series picks up its stride. Leaving the awkward Never 7: The End of Infinity behind, the writers on this...

Starship Troopers: Extermination is a frustrating game. Not because of the challenge, but because it’s so close to being good only to crash into the ground in a heap of green blood and mandibles. The technical glitches, poor lighting and unrewarding progression system interfere with the moments that capture the...

Despite a slow start, Witch on the Holy Night does earn its reading time. It takes well-established character paradigms and works them in fun ways. The limited animations punctuate and accent the words, creating vivid action scenes with color choices that pop. This is a title for kicking back and...

When all is said and done, Goat Simulator 3 is a solid playground to have fun in and just be the worst goat possible. There’s tons of items to find, toys to unwrap and secrets to find. It’s a well-made silly thing to follow up a joke that went too...

For better or worse, mostly better, the re-release of Persona 4 Arena Ultimax is just that: a re-release. This isn't a superior version that has seen huge amounts of love and care. Instead, it's a competently-ported game with a resolution upgrade and the latest balancing. Fans who missed out on the...

In no way, shape or form could Redout: Space Assault be considered required playing. It's simplistic and more than a little disappointing for what the developer can actually produce. That doesn't mean it's without any merit, though. Folks looking for a new Starfox type game will find plenty to enjoy...

When creating a business sim that attempts to capture the subject matter, a fine line needs to be walked. It can't get too deep in the weeds of minutia without offering real explanations, nor can it make those explanations boring. On the other hand, it can't make it too simple,...

There's a ton to like about Team Sonic Racing. The racing itself is as tight and high octane as ever while remaining accessible. Some of the challenge might be a bit much for the wee ones in single player, but otherwise, the solo content is extremely engaging and well balanced....

With an ever increasing amount of games getting console releases, the PC gamer can typically only point to having the best version of a title. Total War has always been a hold out and is one of the few AAA quality PC exclusive series left. While Total War veterans might...
