As a fan of the anime Attack on Titan, this game was an absolute must for me to pick up. With epic titan killing in all its glory, it just seemed so right. But how does Attack on Titan 2 compare to my expectations? Let’s just say, hype doesn’t necessarily...
Nintendo’s beloved pink blob Kirby is making quite the debut on Nintendo Switch with Kirby Star Allies. While Kirby’s recent handheld adventures, like Kirby: Planet Robobot have been great, the last couple console outings, like the Wii U’s Kirby and the Rainbow Curse, have been pretty disappointing. Fortunately, that changes with Kirby...
Developed by Capcom, Devil May Cry is yet again getting the remaster treatment, this time bringing it up to speed with the PlayStation 4. The series, of course, follows the son of Sparda, Dante, as he jumps, shoots, slashes, and sasses his way through hordes of demons and horrible creatures....
I never played the original Fear Effect, an Eidos series for the original PlayStation. I may lack the knowledge required to notice this entry’s thematic ties and departures from the original series. I do however recognize good games and have a long history with PC RPGs. With that in mind,...
Developed by Grasshopper Manufacture, The 25th Ward: The Silver Case is a sequel to their premiere title from back in 1999, simply titled The Silver Case. The game is pitched as a visual novel adventure game, though the heavy emphasis should be on the word “novel.” Following the events of...
Frantics
We’ve seen the PlayLink function launch last year alongside the games That’s You!, Hidden Agenda, and Knowledge is Power covering social, mystery, and quiz-based genres respectively for a party/group setting. This time around, Frantics, seemingly aims to fill in as the mini-game PlayLink entry full of swiping, tilting, and shaking...
Mulaka
Most games aim to entertain. You’ve got your spacemen and your knights and your wizards of all shapes and sizes, racing towards a challenging goal. Some games have loftier aspirations. They want to make you feel something or experience the world from a new perspective. That’s what makes Mulaka so...
You play as a wanderer, traveling across a Depression Era America with nothing more than the clothes on your back and a few coins. You stumble across a local pub and find a table where others are playing cards. You examine the players and figure why not jump in for...
The Seven Deadly Sins: Knights of Brittannia is a new game from Bandai Namco, a company who has been producing a lot of content that crosses over into other Japanese media for many years. In case the name of this game doesn’t ring a bell to you, Seven Deadly Sins...
Put on your helmet, strap on those sandals, and brandish your sword, it’s time to return to the ancient world. From developer Forgotten Empires, Age of Empires: Definitive Edition is easily considered one of the precursors to the modern real-time strategy genre. Originally launching back in 1997, this was one...
Attack of the Earthlings is another turn-based, X-COM-esque game which turns the old trope of aliens invading humans on its head, making the humans invade the aliens for a change. Now, there aren’t many games that I can say I’ve finished it one sitting, but Attack of the Earthlings is...
Crossing Souls
Oh, the 80’s — we just can’t seem to quit you. You don’t have to look far in today’s pantheon of endless pop culture to see that the era of neon colors and synth-laden beats is in full swing. From Thor Ragnarok’s bombastic retro logo to Netflix’s hit, Stranger Things,...
