Rebel Galaxy
Space games sure seem to be a hot commodity these days. You have Elite: Dangerous for your exploration and dogfighting, FTL: Faster than Light and its DLCs for your rogue-likes, Star Citizen for all of your hopes and dreams of what you want a space game to be, and a...
Skyhill
A game should never start you out in an unwinnable situation. It sounds obvious, I know, but after a few playthroughs of Skyhill, I found myself thinking the same thing: that no matter how well I play, no matter what I do, I’ll still lose the majority of the time...
Penarium
“One more TIME!” is the catch phase I kept uttering every time I had died in a level when playing Penarium. A game where, on the surface, it might seem like a simple 2-D retro style platformer, but in reality it is a truly a complex and HIGHLY addictive game...
Up to the plate, is another couch co-op game, a genre I seem to be reviewing a lot of as of late. Having not been overly impressed with the past titles, I was really hoping that Extreme Exorcism could give me a truly amazing couch co-op experience. Sadly, it did anything but.
Armikrog
Point and click adventure titles are the sort of game we often look back on with fond memories, but sadly, they don’t tend to age well for the most part. Armikrog is a victim of this sort of design mindset, and feels like an adventure game from back in the...
Rock Band 4
From 2007 to 2010, music games were all the rage with multiple titles being released each year from both Activision and Harmonix. 2009 alone saw the release of almost 10 Guitar Hero and Rock Band games, so it was no wonder that the genre crashed and burned the following year....
Some of these ants are jerks and need to be locked up though. They’ve been convicted of murder, break and enters, theft, and all manner of other violent crimes, so you’ll need to build cells and other special facilities in order keep your staff and the other prisoners safe. You’re...
Destiny has not been without its critics. From the day the game first launched many people have voiced their opinion as they have either hated it or really loved it. There have been two expansion packs since the game launched in September 2014 and, as with the original core game,...
I was eager to get some hands-on time with World of Warships mostly even though I don’t really go in for vehicular combat games. I know Wargaming.net has a solid history of producing quality freemium MMOs, starting with their flagship title World of Tanks, which was released back in 2011....
What happens when you take a franchise with unbelievably repetitive gameplay and shoehorn in a perennially popular manga/anime? You get One Piece: Pirate Warriors 3 – a repetitive game featuring a classic anime story and characters.
NHL 16
As a lifelong hockey fan, I have a special place in my heart for EA’s NHL video game series. I grew up playing the legendary NHL 94 with my friends, on the Sega Genesis system, making those one-timers, and always picking Jeremy Roenick because, for some reason, he couldn’t be...
Dropsy
And success, in Dropsy, is its own reward. The townspeople that Dropsy help along the way kick their depressed funk, crack a smile, and hug the clown they’d demonized moments before. This is cathartic, and it’s hard not to crack a smile as Dropsy meets their happiness with unequaled enthusiasm....
