I absolutely adore anything roguelike, simply because it gives the player an almost infinite amount of possibility and creates a somewhat different experience to the game every single time you play it. That’s why when Fairy Tail decided to announce yet another new game, Fairy Tail: Dungeons, it was a...
UFO 50
It’s not uncommon to see indie developers deciding to make a game based on a specific retro era, most likely from their childhood. It’s not even uncommon to see some developers make games based on the specific limitations of a console from back in the day, just like how Shovel...
Of all Earth Defense Force games, World Brothers is easily its most easily recognizable, with its colorful presentation, voxel-like graphics, and light hearted premise. It’s also, ironically enough, the most polished, and dare I say, fun, of all of the many games in the franchise to have ever been released...
When it was first released way back in the ancient days of 2008, Capcom’s Dead Rising became a legendary survival “horror” franchise, spanning many sequels and even movies. When Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster was first announced there was a lot of confusion about what it was, looking a lot closer...
The Lego games have been on top of their genre forever now, mostly because there really hasn’t been much to challenge them. Little Big Planet may have been the closest for a while, but its impossible to keep up with the speed those games were coming out. Now though, we’ve...
You know what has constantly disappointed me during this generation? The Mario sports games on the Switch. Without exception, all of them felt rushed, formulaic, corporate as hell, and devoid of content. I don’t even care most of the content for these games would eventually get patched months later; first...
I can only imagine that the folks at Maple Powered Games received the pitch to develop a brand new game based on the G.I. Joe franchise, were told to not worry that much about making a bonafide banger of a game, and completely ignoring that last bit. Considering the fact...
Considering the near-exhausting wave of 80s nostalgia we’ve been living in since, well, the early 2000s, it amazes me that it took so long for someone to come up with a brand new Karate Kid game. And no, I’m not talking about Cobra Kai tie-ins; I’m talking about the original...
Astro Bot
Have you ever felt nostalgic for something you did not grow up with? Ever heard an older song for the first time in your 30s, with it almost feeling like part of your childhood? I think this has just happened with me after playing (and completing) Astro Bot. I have...
There seems to be a never-ending supply of Warhammer games in recent years, with some amazing hits like Rogue Trader and Boltgun. We’ve even had games like Darktide, which, whilst flawed, were actually incredibly fun. Fans of the 40,000 series have been eating well recently, and Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine...
Have you ever been so absorbed in a book that it felt like the characters were real? Or been so enthralled by the world in a story that you wished you just hop right into its pages and visit it for yourself? Well, what if the characters were real and...
I find it impressive that the Test Drive series, which started way back in 1987, is still alive and kicking to this very day. Put this into perspective: Test Drive is older than Sonic, Ninja Gaiden, Prince of Persia, and many others. After many ownership changes over the years, Test...
