It’s been a decent break since Squanch Games’ comical High On Life initially debuted. I had a complete blast with it, with its explorable worlds and fun-to-use arsenal of talkative guns, but the question remains if they can nail that magic a second time. With High On Life 2, they...
Super Bomberman Collection is a top-notch gathering of several Bomberman games that offer small but intriguing differences between one another. Whether you’ve played these titles before or not, the bounty of bonus features and interesting inclusions make it a rather fine collection.
Forced to participate in a mysterious auction for items linked to “Dictator X” to learn the truth about your father’s death, you must investigate the secrets of each participant to piece together memories of the past, in the latest mystery game written by Rika Suzuki, the writer of Another Code...
Romeo Is A Dead Man takes style over substance beyond its breaking point. A game that features cool and outlandish ideas at every turn, with a 2D pixel hub space ship, a maze navigating upgrade minigame, and outlandish sci-fi ideas, like the Space-Time FBI. Any surprises it might hold or...

It’s hard to believe Final Fantasy VII Remake came out nearly six years ago, bringing the first part of the trilogy project to life. Since then, we’ve reviewed Remake, Intermission, and Rebirth, but it was about time for a refresher.
Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora – From The Ashes is like looking into a universe where the Avatar franchise was a venerable 80s/90s action staple.
Escape from Ever After was quite the surprise to me. While going in with the perspective that this Paper Mario-inspired game might scratch an itch Nintendo themselves seem happy to leave squarely as an age old storybook tale many look fondly upon, the team at Sleepy Castle Studio is ready...
Metroid Prime 4: Beyond is certainly a bit different from what I expected, but it’s largely a strong next step for the series. Though some bizarre padding and an oddly empty open world keep the game from being a stone-cold classic, Metroid Prime 4 is still a great experience that...
