Always Sometimes Monsters Review
Adventure games have come a long way since Myst and are enjoying a second wind in this new indie renaissance because of their generally low cost to make and lack of pressure to deliver a product of a certain genre…
The Wolf Among Us: In Sheep’s Clothing Review
There’s something missing in the 4th episode of Telltale’s The Wolf Among Us. The writing is consistently high quality, it runs as it always has, but it’s somewhat empty in comparison to every installment before it. In a vacuum, this…
Hearthstone: Heroes of Warcraft Review
Blizzard has a knack to knowing how things should work. Across multiple genres, their legacy has been an exercise in distilling a particular type of game down to its core mechanics, and making them front and center, while adding a…
Moebius: Empire Rising Review
Adventure games have seen a resurgence in recent years. Games such as The Walking Dead, The Wolf Among Us, and Broken Age have provided a breath of fresh air into a so-called obsolete genre. Now thanks to Kickstarter, Jane Jensen,…
The Wolf Among Us: A Crooked Mile Review
Warning: this review contains spoilers for previous episodes of The Wolf Among Us. A Crooked Mile, being the middle-chapter and the third episode, which usually acts as the climax in Telltale-series, definitely serves it’s purpose as the turning point in…
Luftrauser Review
Are you a score chaser, always looking for bigger, better numbers? Are you a shmup die-hard that feels right at home in bullet hell? Are you a indie fiend who can never get enough of lo-fi visuals and chiptune audio?…
The Walking Dead: Season Two Episode 2- A House Divided Review
Coming off of the less-than-stellar first episode of Season 2, Telltale’s Walking Dead had a lot of catching up to do. Unfortunately, with pacing issues aplenty, this second episode wastes a lot of time finding its footing. The potential at…
Tiny Barbarian DX Review
StarQuail has created something that could be compared to gaming comfort food. The kind of food that you, a jaded 20-something far removed from child-like wonder and ignorance, can sink their teeth into and be instantly transported back to grandmas…
Jazzpunk Review
I find myself trapped. Everything around me is made of pizza. I have a pizza cutter in my left hand, and a spatula in my right. The screen says, “Use Left/Right Trigger to Dual Wield!” I have only one choice:…
The Banner Saga Review
I had a single grey hair in my beard two weeks ago, and it served as an appropriate ornament for my girlfriend to prod at every time she saw me. I blame that on the inevitable approach of my late…
