What the Golf?
I’m going to be honest: What the Golf? is not a very good golf game. But that’s okay because it’s not really a golf game at all. Instead, it takes the concept of golf and subverts your expectations of what that should be. Though it borders on being too simplistic...
You’ve been through a lot, guardian. Defeating Crota, conquering the Iron Banner, overcoming Ghaul, losing Cayde-6… The Traveller may have awakened, but that doesn’t mean it is time to rest. Something unnatural stirs on the moon. What evil may lurk in its shadows? You are about to find out. Developed...
Warsaw
WARSAW, by the indie studio Pixelated Milk, is a turn-based strategy game that highlights the often-forgotten Warsaw Uprising during WWII — aiming to depict the sacrifices and the struggles of the Polish Underground Resistance. Unfortunately, and perhaps somewhat realistically, the game at the current stage feels like a hopeless grind...
Concrete Genie
Every child has a moment where they wish their art could come to life. Be it in times of struggle, idle escapism, or even loneliness, that brief “I wish you were real” is achingly familiar. Concrete Genie is your chance to realize that childhood dream, even if it’s under somewhat...
Dragon Quest
Dragon Quest, or Dragon Warrior as it was previously known in North America, is one of those NES games that was a standard of my childhood. It’s now been released in North America for the Nintendo Switch with a fresh coat of paint that makes it the best way to...
What is so amazing about the LEGO series of games is that developer TT Games consistently creates titles that are fun, fresh and enjoyable. They manage to accomplish this by simply taking the concepts and best parts of a movie, putting on a LEGO spin, and developing a memorable gaming...
The Surge 2
The Surge was generally well-received among fans and critics alike but didn’t add a whole lot to the souls-like formula besides a fresh coat of sci-fi paint and a satisfying dismemberment mechanic. If you are expecting The Surge 2, then, to be a reinvention of the series and a bold...
Green Hell
The best way I could describe Green Hell, and specifically, its story mode would be a first-person take on 2013’s Tomb Raider reboot. I say that because in that story Lara was learning how to survive in a harsh environment against hostile locals. And Green Hell at its core is...
NBA 2K20
I once believed my trail of destiny led to the National Basketball Association. A natural conclusion for a 5’5” kid from the suburbs of Northern Georgia who couldn’t make his high school team. The 1-9 record of my senior season of recreational ball struck me back to reality. Throughout my...
Let’s face it, zombies are everywhere in pop culture these days. Of course, one of the major contributors to this fact is The Walking Dead series. What started off as a comic has turned into a worldwide franchise via the television series that debuted on AMC in 2010. With a...
Blasphemous
The Game Kitchen’s highly anticipated Kickstarter title immediately impressed with its gorgeous pixel art and surprisingly grim premise. Fast forward two years, and we finally have our hands on the brutal action platformer that pays homage to series like Castlevania and Dark Souls. You assume the role of the Penitent...
The advertising for AI: The Somnium Files really relies on the pedigree of its creator. Kotaro Uchikoshi brings us his first game following the success of the Zero Escape series of games, which if you’re in any way a fan of visual novels, are must plays. As a fan of...
