Review: Lake is a Picture-Perfect Slice of Small Town Life
I think for a lot of people, games are about escapism. They give you the ability to do things you couldn’t otherwise. Explore space, or unlock the secrets of hidden […]
Review: Death’s Gambit: Afterlife Is a Whole New Experience
I never played Death’s Gambit on its original release. There are so any soulslike and metroidvania games that Death’s Gambit flew under my radar—sort of. I mean, it was already […]
Review: Rogue Lords Is a Roguelike Perfect for October
Ever since Dungeon Keeper taught me that being evil in a video game can be fun, I’ve had no problems being the bad guy. I mean, in most role-playing games […]
Review: Guardians of Hyelore Is a Pleasant Time Waster
Guardians of Hyelore is a side scrolling strategy and unit recruitment game. In it, you face off, army to army, as you send units to fight the enemy. Each side […]
Review: Centipede Recharged Doesn’t Add Enough to Justify a Rerelease

Review: Beautifully Hand Drawn Astria Ascending Sets Itself Apart
I haven’t played many Japanese style role-playing games lately (JRPGs), but it’s a genre I dabbled in extensively when I was much younger. That’s not to say I haven’t played […]
Review: Song of Farca Is a Cyber Thriller We Couldn’t Put Down

Review: Multiplayer Friendship Tester Struggling Flops Onto Consoles

Review: A Gummy’s Life Is a Floppy Fighting Party Game
Released back in 2018 on Steam, A Gummy’s Life has garnered a “Very Positive” overall review. I don’t understand why. Reminiscent of Gang Beasts, A Gummy’s Life is a wacky […]
