Burrowed deep inside the human psyche dwells the morbid curiosities that infest the essence of Little Nightmares II. Following in the skittish footsteps of its predecessor, Tarsier Studios have delved into the deliciously grotesque to bring us an amalgamation of the macabre that will fester in your subconsciousness for years...
I was fully prepared to not like Persona 5 Strikers, coming later this month from Omega Force and P-Studio. Koei Tecmo’s hack and slash franchise, Dynasty Warriors, was never a favorite of mine and when I heard of its influence on this latest Persona offering, I feared I was about...
The Pedestrian
Throughout our lives, we pass thousands if not millions of signs and barely even give them a second glance. Yet, Skookum Arts has seen potential in these mundane objects, using them as a centerpiece in their debut title, The Pedestrian. Set in a world that is hidden in plain sight,...
Gods Will Fall
Games are all about turning lopsided battles in your favor. Whether you’re fighting empires, armies, or incredible monsters, it’s your chance to do something otherwise impossible. Gods Will Fall presents you with an impossible task that truly feels beyond the reach of most human beings. Whether this Sisyphean labor appeals...
Disjunction
Disjunction successfully manages to capture everything that made classic Metal Gear fun, with none of what made you want to smash your Nintendo. It harkens back to an era long passed, all the while feeling fresh. Even today, amidst a sea of games made to emulate their developer’s childhood favorites,...
The Medium
What lies beyond? It’s a question that’s dominated the human psyche since the dawn of consciousness. What beyond that ridge? That horizon? Or the ultimate, most unanswerable question of all: what lies beyond this mortal plane? What happens when we pass on?
The Atelier series has been a deeply loved series for fans of the alchemy JRPG genre for many years. But it wasn’t until Atelier Ryza’s release in 2019 that we saw some record-breaking sales and it’s no surprise that a year later we would see a sequel so soon. Unlike...
Override 2: Super Mech League by the indie publishers Modus Games attempts to recapture the cult success of the first one. A casual mecha brawler with a clean art style, tight combat, and a huge roster of characters, the game certainly looks very appealing. However, the incredibly limited single-player options...
Originally released on the WiiU and Steam in 2016, the cult classic, Tadpole Treble is now back for an encore on the Nintendo Switch. But can this cute amphibian still hold a tune 5 years after its initial release?
Hitman 3
Good morning, 47. After 2 games across 15 locations, IO Interactive returns to wrap up the World of Assassination trilogy in Hitman 3. More of the same in the best possible way, Hitman 3 is a fantastic way to spend a few dozen (or hundred) hours this winter.
Calico
A good life sim will suck you into a world you’d never considered before. I’m not a farmer or a full-blown cat lady, yet I gravitate to those worlds in games. Calico in particular represents a realm I’d left untouched before now. What if I owned a baker’s dozen cats,...
Grand strategy titles are fun, but when it comes to the tedious micromanaging that comes with such titles like Nobunaga’s Ambition and others of the genre, it can be a bit of a drag especially when it comes to the importance of economics. Brigandine: The Legend of Runersia takes away...
