Kill la Kill: The Game IF Review - A Tad Underdressed

Kill la Kill fans have been drooling for a game ever since Studio TRIGGER's anime blew everyone’s clothes off in 2013. For some reason, it’s taken developers until now to get a game out. What we’ve finally ended up with

Wolfenstein: Youngblood Review- Passing the Torch

Wolfenstein 3D and DOOM are often considered the granddaddies of the first person shooter genre, and they both spawned consistently successful franchises, both of which are being produced to this day. They have their similarities, but the franchises are separated by

Anodyne 2: Return to Dust Review -- Dust Devil

Anodyne 2 is a Kaleidoscope of Retro Flair Despite being the homespun passion project of a mere two developers, Anodyne 2: Return to Dust carries the air of an epic. This can be chalked up to the cult following behind the

Sagebrush Review - Spirit in The Sky

Now, this was a gamble, I can assure you. It's nothing to do with the developer, it's due to the publisher pulling strings behind it. On Xbox One, Ratalaika Games's name is synonymous with "cheap tat you can 1000g in an

Fantasy Strike Review

Fighting games have been a part of the gaming community for the last 30 years, although the community is niche and some would say small compared to other genres. Different types of fighting games, from street fighters, side-scrollers, to Tekken's 3D-style

Where The Bees Make Honey Review - Reality Bytes

Hey look, a Kickstarter game! Let me flip the coin where there's butter on "bad". Truth be told, I understand why a lot of these projects backed on Kickstarter turn out to be a lot of false promises. Think about it,

Forged of Blood Review - The Dark Souls of Tactical RPGs

Making waves in the rich, turn-based tactical RPG scene is a road not taken by many developers. The risk of making or breaking in this saturated market scares even the most well-known studios. In a genre consisting of loyal and

Quest Hunter Review

Are you trying to scratch that dungeon-crawling, RPG itch? Already played through Diablo, Titan Quest, Torchlight, and the Sacred series? Then Quest Hunter is the game you’re looking for! Quest Hunter is an action-adventure, loot-based questing RPG made by Two Zombie

RICO Review - Real Raw

Slow motion in video games is no longer the raging force it used to be. This saddens advocates of the mechanic like myself. It seems like only yesterday that games like F.E.A.R., Max Payne, TimeShift, and Stranglehold had... well, a stranglehold

Double Cross Review - An M. Night Shylammadamma Production

Ah, the Summer Games drought. If you're lazy, you'd look at this decrease in important releases and quiver, but not I! It just means you have to look harder for the gold nuggets, and doing so will reward with much more

OVIVO Review - God Moving Over The Face of The Waters

Honestly, I've never gotten the point of a Rorschach test. There's something about a random ink blot spilled by Mr. Rorschach himself that determines you mental stability, that just feels like nonsense. Maybe I'm looking too much into it, like the

Devolver Bootleg Review -- Devolver mi Dinero

Yeah, I know, it seems like a cheap shot but I put down my $4.94 for Devolver’s postmodernist charade and dammit I’m gonna get my two cents (retained via the 1% off deal) in. Beneath the unending veils of irony

Eagle Island Review: Eagle to Please

More times than not, it is very difficult to make a game that stands out in the action-platformer genre. Eagle Island tries really hard to separate itself from the pack and actually does an admirable job in their attempts. Eagle Island:

I wanted to start out this review with a meaningful quote from a video game but I decided that GRIS doesn’t need that. This game speaks for itself in more ways than anything else ever could. Before I get into my

ASCENDANCE: First Horizon Review - bigg brian gaem

Now... I'm a fan of walking simulators, moreso than the average human being. I give Dear Esther some of the credit it deserves. My favorite game of all time can begrudgingly be called a walking simulator. However, there's a flip-side to that notion,

Windscape Review - Fable Threw

Xenon Racer Review - Gas Drawls

Ridge Racer was a thing at one point. Never played it before, because I was an F-Zero and Forza man, goddamnit, but Ridge Racer mostly being a PlayStation exclusive was always something I envied, even if it was overshadowed by WipeOut most of the time. Then once I got my

Descenders Review - Skylined

The rogue-likes and rogue-lites are finally dying down. You'd think after something like NeuroVoider, or Dead Cells, that'd be it, but no, you still get the occasional curveball of top-down tedium or side-scrolling smattering with miscreant merchants. Today however? I think we've found

Baba is You Review -- Abstraction is Key

Surface level subversion has reached a dead-end across indie game development. It’s almost a prerequisite in certain subgenres that your game acknowledges its own existence, prodding at it and shrugging off suspension of disbelief, flaunting its distance from the self-serious

Mars: Chaos Menace Review - Demon's Crystals 2: Even Worse

Man, do I miss seeing sh'm'ups release frequently. The sh'm'up arcade scene was always worth its weight in gold. Constant endless challenges of precision and brute force, with every bullet put into play having devastating consequences for you and your wallet.
