Alright, folks. Let’s get this out of the way. Not everything that was produced by the PlayStation 2 era was a banging success. I know that it may sound hard to believe, but it definitely stays true for a game like Gungrave G.O.R.E. and the game it’ll be inevitably compared...
Everybody loves a good mashup and Ship of Fools from Canadian indie developer Fika Productions combines two of today’s most popular indie obsessions, namely roguelites and relationship-fraying couch co-op games like Overcooked and Moving Out (perhaps unsurprisingly, all the games mentioned in the above paragraph are published by Team17).
Evil West
Flying Wild Hog is a developer that I have a very hard time siloing into one genre that they're known for. From Shadow Warrior to Trek to Yomi, there's a diverse range of action titles that each bring something new to the table. With Evil West's take on the Weird...
Despite being wildly influential, there are some classic games whose ultimate fate is to remain in obscurity, appreciated only by a dedicated but small fanbase that keeps their legacy alive any way they can. This is definitely the case of Yasumi Matsuno's Ogre Battle series, one of the finest tactical...
Very few successful gaming franchises have had a history as tumultuous as Sonic the Hedgehog. Back in the 90s, the series could rival the Super Mario Bros. franchise in terms of quality, creativity, and popularity, but the jump to 3D graphics proved to be troublesome for Sonic Team, as very...
It's been just over four years since the God of War reboot came out, marking a real turning point in the epic of the Ghost of Sparta. The 2018 game set the stage for Kratos' journey in the Norse lands with a new and, in many ways, unexpected companion, his...
Forget slashers and zombies, cults and “folk horror” are having a bit of a moment right now with movies like Midsommar, Mandy, and Hereditary making robes, weird ceremonies, and tea with things you really shouldn’t be drinking mixed in the new hotness. The Chant from Vancouver-based indie developer Brass Token...
The history of the Star Ocean series is an interesting one, to say the least. The first entry in the series, released back in 1996 on Nintendo's Super Famicom system in Japan, was the first game developed by tri-Ace as an answer to Namco's Tales of Phantasia, which members of...
Asymmetric games are nearly always a cult favorite amongst a particular audience. The heady, confusing, and completely unbalanced days of Alien vs. Predator 2 and Timesplitters 2 infection mode inspired a generation of players. The modern lockdown beating efforts of Among Us and the countless multiplayer horror games vying for...
Telltale’s Tales from the Borderlands is a story that’s grown in stature with time. While not a huge hit when it was first released, the series has gained a dedicated fanbase due to its twist-filled plot and surprisingly grounded, likable characters. Despite the series’ cult status, few expected a sequel,...
Grounded
It was around two years ago when I first played Grounded. By then, I was already tired of survival games, waking up to a new world, smashing trees and rocks, and then rubbing them together to create an axe. The axe then being used to break even more giant stones,...
Good ol’ Guybrush Threepwood has been sailing choppy seas for a while now. Following those back-to-back early-90s classics The Secret of Monkey Island and Monkey Island 2: LeChuck’s Revenge, series masterminds Ron Gilbert and Dave Grossman weighed anchor and left LucasArts. The franchise continued with The Curse of Monkey Island...
