It has been nearly 15 years since the release of Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red and Blue Rescue Team and nearly 5 years since the last installment of the series, Pokémon Super Mystery Dungeon. Seeing as the Nintendo Switch has just celebrated its 3rd birthday, it’s about time it also got...
I feel that I don’t need to explain what Where’s Waldo is at this point, right? The book/game is a cultural staple, spanning through many types of media, and spawning a near infinite amount of copycats. Hidden Through Time, the brand new game developed by the same people behind Guns,...

I was wondering what The Quantum Astrophysicists Guild, the developers with one of the coolest and longest names in the business, was doing lately. I remember tackling some of their puzzles for Switch early in the system’s life cycle, The Bridge and Tumblestone, and enjoying them for the most part....
It has been over 20 years since the original Half-Life first released, a classic beloved by many in the PC community and one of the most influential shooters of all time. Ever since 2005, an ambitious fan-made recreation of the original game, with the support from Valve nonetheless, has been...
One Punch Man is one of the best animes released over the past few years mostly because it’s aimed at those who were fed up with the vast amount of clichés and tropes present in shonen anime. It narrates the life of Saitama, a guy so powerful he can kill...
When I reviewed Darksiders Genesis last year, I gave the game a 9.0; praising the familiar elements of the game whilst attempting to try something new in the franchise. I adore the game and think it’s one of the better games of 2019, so of course I had to double...
It’s crazy how video game releases work, especially back in the 80s and 90s, when so many games were released exclusively in Japan. One, or should I say two, of those games were Langrisser. Langrisser has seen very little release outside of Japan, aside from the “recent” mobile app that...
There are lots of cases in which companies decide to release small versions of AAA franchises for mobile phones, with examples like Fallout Shelter, Pokémon GO, and Injustice coming to mind. But you rarely, if ever, see someone trying to AAA-ify a franchise that was originally developed with phones in...

Walking simulators are a tough type of game to get right. With little to no gameplay elements other than walking, running, or interacting with objects, the game needs to be strong in a lot of other areas to keep players entertained. Games like SOMA, The Stanley Parable, Through the Woods,...
The Mega Man franchise has had so many spinoffs over the past few decades that it’s hard to remember all of them sometimes. Besides the main series, we also have the edgier X series, the 3D adventure Legends series, and the Battle Network games that tried to capitalize on the...
Bloodroots
Bloodroots is an isometric, fast-paced, action game from the small Montreal based developer, Paper Cult. If you were to take Samurai Jack, The Revenant, Hotline Miami, and a pinch of John Wick, and mash them together in a beautifully horrific orgy of violence and hate, Bloodroots would be their bearded,...
The good old reliable 3DS was quite the handheld wasn’t it? So good, maybe you want to play some of those games again? The good news is, Rune Factory 4 Special is here, the remake of the 3DS version that was inherently less special than it would appear. It’s obvious...
