Initially released on PC as an early access title, the […]

CrossCode – Comparison Review | Nintendo VS Sony
July – the month a little gem called CrossCode came to Nintendo Switch. An action RPG with strong influence from Secret of Mana. So, I’ll put my cards on the table here. Truth is, I’ve had this review code for some time, but it was continuously delayed. And now that we’re halfway through December, it seems redundant to cover […]
Morbid: The Seven Acolytes – Review | Kill’em Slow
The year was 2015, and a little game known as Bloodborne was unleashed. Now, I was never much for the Dark Souls franchise myself. The punishing gameplay was enough to frighten me off. Something was enchanting about that release though. It was utterly beautiful and aesthetically pleasing. So, I dove in headfirst and got immensely frustrated. I’ve never wanted […]
Space Crew – Review – To Infinity and Beyond
Gaming is a peculiar pastime. Sometimes I want a deep, expansive experience that will stay with me for years. Sometimes I want to put myself through hell as a game mercilessly beats my will to live into the ground and demands I try again. And sometimes I just want to pop onto a game a […]
Wintermoor Tactics Club – Review | D&D in the Snow
School is a Game? One of the highlights of my schoolboy days was the four years I spent playing Advanced Dungeons and Dragons with my friends. School is hard, people are mostly abhorrent, and finding a tribe is one of the few ways you can get by mostly unscathed. Interestingly enough, Wintermoor Tactics Club manages […]

Mortal Shell – Review | Yet another Souls-like?
A Love Letter Every once in a while, a game or franchise comes along that so flawlessly executes its concept that the formula it lays out becomes a sort of genre unto itself. In recent years, one of these titles is the incredible Dark Souls series. It’s very difficult to talk about Mortal Shell without mentioning this, because at […]

Evan’s Remains accomplishes just that. Developed by Maitan69, who’s based in Argentina, Evan’s Remains is a mystery-thriller puzzle game with only one objective: find […]
Many Faces – Review | A Faceless Shooter
One of Many Faces The Nintendo Switch is a melting pot of indie titles, many of which are pretty awful but contribute to the successful smothering of legitimately good games. Roguelikes, arguably my favorite sub-genre, are the most egregious of offenders. It is impossible to search the eShop without nimbly navigating a nefarious nexus of […]
