An intriguing tale of adventure that does not necessarily reinvent the wheel, Crowns and Pawns: Kingdom of Deceit pays homage to its predecessors while creating a modern experience that should appeal to fans, young or old.
At the end of the day, it is quite impossible to look at Eiyuden Chronicle: Rising without thinking ahead to Hundred Heroes. On its own, it is a capable action RPG that looks great, with solid action and platforming to keep players distracted from completing repetitive quests, but as part...
As it stands, Salt and Sacrifice continues to nail down all of the moving parts and elements that go into creating an impressive Souls-like game. For most players --especially those just discovering the genre for the first time-- this is an easy recommendation. But for the rest of us, it's...
Trek to Yomi feels like a victim of its own cinematic inspirations and artistic ambitions. While satisfying at times, the combat is ultimately pretty one-note and begins to outstay its welcome by the time you've reached the end of Hiroki's journey. I'm a sucker for artistically driven indie experiences, but...
Loot River's real-time puzzling attributes are a refreshing stamp on the roguelike genre, without a doubt. Yet it falters in ways that can completely break your experience and takes a few steps back feature-wise, making the early hours of re-running an absolute nightmare.

Even with a weaker fighting system, though, The Kaito Files is more than worth the purchase for any fan of the series. Fantastic writing, enjoyable characters, and a gripping narrative make this experience another highlight in the series, more than proving that Kaito is worthy of being a protagonist.
Equally charming as it is nostalgic, LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga is quite possibly the definitive Star Wars video game collection right now, not only from a content perspective, but from an authenticity and a fun factor perspective as well. It's a wonderful experience, especially for those with a...
It's hard to talk about new entries in the monster tamer genre without bringing up Pokemon as a comparison, but Coromon -- even with a few notable faults -- feels like a significantly updated version of those GBA-era games thanks to some unique features that modernize it enough so that...
In essence, In Nightmare is a narrative heavy puzzle game where all too often you must engage in more action heavy scenes in order to progress. That coupled with frequent sections where you must navigate a room of either a single monster or multiple and avoid detection caused the game...
