Fatal Frame: Mask of the Lunar Eclipse centers around the exploration of exceptionally creepy environments: a sanatorium, an infirmary, a lighthouse, and others on Rogetsu Isle. Should you risk the trip?Read More
Labyrinth of Galleria: The Moon Society has little interest in whether you're any good at it. Just when you think you've finally got its complexities sorted out, it'll toss an OP enemy at you just to crush your spirit. So why did I have such an amazing time playing it?Read...
The key to the success of Fire Emblem: Engage is not its "heroes of games past" hook, it's the revitalized focus on combat and clever battle maps. Turn-based strategists who've felt disenfranchised by FE as of late should be thrilled.Read More
Terror of Hemasaurus is satisfying. Specifically, "This game is really satisfying," as stated by my son when we were about 15 minutes into our first session with it. If you ever felt the same about the arcade classic Rampage, you'll want to check this out.Read More

Children of Silentown is a point-and-click adventure/puzzle game published by Daedalic. They tend to bring us adventures with strong narratives, and that's certainly the case here. There's plenty more to like, too.Read More

Samurai Maiden
An action-adventure game featuring Nobunaga Oda? Go on. And sword-fighting skeletons? Go on! And a team of kunoichi who draw power by kissing each other? GO…kay.Read More
Harvestella seeks to engage fans of both JRPGs and farming sims, but will the watered down approach turn away hardcore fans of either? All is revealed in our review, just one click away!Read More
Bayonetta 3
A Bayonetta 3 review at this point is largely meaningless. Those who have been looking forward to this third entry in the series surely already have it. But if it's still lingering in your wish list, allow me to suggest it's OK to remove it.Read More
Halloween may be over, but do you think the residents of Yuzu's hometown have their Christmas decorations out already? They do not. Rather, the town is plagued by ghosts and monsters…and that may include Yuzu herself.Read More
