I’m always excited to try out a new rhythm game, as this is probably my favorite genre out there. I can’t live off playing Rock Band 4 forever, so I love when a little title like Deemo Reborn or AVICII Invector shows up. They add a little twist and a...
The name Captain Tsubasa might not be that famous if you grew up in the US as well as some other countries. But if you, like me, grew up in Latin America, then you know it and probably love it. This long-running manga and anime franchise was an absolute hit...
Tamarin
A lot of you may have never heard of Tamarin prior to its release, but I was looking forward to it for almost a year. The moment I saw its first trailer, I was instantly craving for it. Not only is the game developed by a bunch of former Rare...
Bounty Battle
Bounty Battle was initially unveiled a few months ago, and it surprised the hell out of me. It had one of the coolest premises I have seen in a while: a Super Smash Bros-inspired party brawler with a roster comprised solely of characters from famous indie franchises. What a stroke...
Inmost
Ever since Limbo came out ten years ago, the indie scene started to be flooded with a very specific subgenre I like to call the “depressive art platformer”. It’s a type of game that uses the basis of puzzle platformers in order to tell a usually depressing and tense story...
One of my fondest and earliest gaming memories back in my childhood was going to the local arcade parlor to play some classic racing cabinets such as Virtua Racing, Daytona USA, and Ridge Racer. I lament that this kind of racing game is pretty much extinct nowadays: fast-paced, with simple...
I knew right from the get-go that NBA 2K21 would hardly be able to impress me. Considering the current global situation, with the COVID-19 pandemic halting game development processes AND sports leagues all over the world, I was aware that the game would, at best, feature one or two new...
It’s always nice to see a classic RTS released these days. Especially when it’s in the vein of Company of Heroes/Dawn of War, both of which remain personal favorites. Nowadays, with the genre dominated by 4x titles, even a run of the mill game seems special. And sadly though I...
I was starting to think we’d turned a corner with Warhammer game adaptations. It wasn’t so long ago we were drowning in generic entry after generic entry, with over half of them being a different brand of Space Hulk. Then, somewhere along the way, we started getting more variety of...
For as much as I was looking forward to the release of Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1+2, I was also worried. This is Activision we’re talking about. I hadn’t forgotten about the nuclear disaster that ended up being Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 5. I was worried this new remake was...
I was in the camp that believed Crusader Kings III was unnecessary and would launch as an unmitigated disaster of a cash grab. While I normally prefer giving the benefit of the doubt, given Imperator: Rome and Paradox’s increasingly worrying DLC practices, I felt this was a valid exception. As...
Modus Games is quickly becoming one of my favorite indie publishers. With games like Rock of Ages 3: Make & Break, Skully, and Trine 4: The Nightmare Prince, they’re making a name for themselves as publishers of fun, quirky, and unique games. They might not all be the biggest powerhouses...
