It is no secret that I love AVICII Invector both in its “normal” and VR forms, but I have always wondered if, due to the nature of the late DJ/producer Avicii being involved in that game’s development, Invector would remain a (great) one-and-done experience. There was a lot of potential...
A while ago, I reviewed Shame Legacy from Fairyship Games, a forgettable first-person horror game that didn’t exactly impress, but it was far from being the worst thing in the world. It proved that the developer had some potential, making me look forward to their next outing. I just didn’t...
The Atelier franchise, a once hidden commodity that cultivated a niche, has recently managed to break into the mainstream. This success can be directly attributed to a little-known trilogy known as Atelier Ryza. Thick thighs save lives, after all, and the internet immediately grabbed hold of the female protagonist. I...
Ghost Trick was, bar none, one of my favorite games for the Nintendo DS. Clever, engrossing and amazingly compelling, it’s one of the few titles that I played where I forsook anything else on my DS for a period of weeks. Normally I can toggle between multiple games to help...
Earlier this year, the internet had collectively decided to label Forspoken as the worst game of the year, the culprit for everything that was wrong with gaming, and so on and so forth. It almost made me want to test it out right away, just to see if it was...
Ever since the fantastic Alien: Isolation I’ve been waiting for another truly great Alien game to come out, and it’s been a rough wait. We’ve had Aliens: Fireteam Elite, which was competent, but severely flawed as a cooperative shooter. Aliens: Dark Descent came under the motion tracker for me, and...
If you have never heard of the games included in the Ray’z Arcade Chronology, I don’t blame you. Back in the mid to late 90s, a new bullet hell shooter would be released nearly every single week. There are tons of them, way too many to remember, and not a...

It’s important to pursue your dreams, any teacher or parent will tell you that right up until they actually hear what your dream is. It’s easy for adults to encourage children when they think children are having the same dreams they did: become a doctor, a basketball player, an insurance...
I’m not going to lie, I fully expected for Crash Team Rumble, a multiplayer-only, MOBA take on what has pretty much always been a franchise associated with linear, single player platforming, to be an utter disaster. Who the hell had asked for a Crash Bandicoot MOBA? One that’s console exclusive,...
In today’s burning world, it’s nice to know there’s a type of game tapping into the good of humanity. Some would scream it’s a fictional take on reality, and to that, I say, yeah, you’re goddamn right. Slice-of-life romps would be depressing if they attempted to emulate the bullshit we...
Sonic Origins was released last year to some controversy. We found it to be good, don’t get us wrong, but there’s no way to deny the complaints regarding its pricing, missing tracks from Sonic 3, and some bizarre DLC packs offered at launch. Sonic Origins Plus is, well, another DLC...

The past few years have been kind to us with the amount of retro-inspired releases that have just blown us away. Signalis successfully recaptured the old-school survival horror, New Blood Interactive has been killing it, with games like Dusk and Amid Evil taking us back to the boomer shooters with...
