Survival horror fans have been enjoying a relative renaissance these past few years in gaming. With Resident Evil remakes dominating the landscape, and a new Dead Space (and Calisto Protocol) on the horizon, there hasn’t been a better time to get that terrifying adrenaline rush. From Pulsatrix Studios, Fobia: St...
Disgaea 6: Complete is one of those ideas that sounds better on paper than it does in real life. I’m sorry, that probably sounds too harsh. Especially coming from someone who’s as big a fan of the Disgaea franchise as me. But here’s the issue: the Disgaea franchise is notorious...
If MMORPGs are an endless time-sink for players, they must be an equally bottomless pit for developers. Long time players need new content, and new players need enticement. There has to be a feeling of evolution, but not so much as to alienate the faithful. Does the Elder Scrolls Online:...
Maybe you’re an easy mark for a tactical RPG. You see a movement grid, and your heart flutters. With just one look at Symphony of War: The Nephillim Saga, you can already tell it’s going to hit all the right buttons. But this is more than just another derivative tactics...
Do you want more Fire Emblem in your life? Because you’re getting so much more Fire Emblem. Nintendo and Omega Force have whipped up a massive new adventure with Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes. Yes, this is another Warriors game. But in all fairness, this is a franchise uniquely well-suited to the...
Sonic Origins
There are a ton of games in the Sonic the Hedgehog franchise. We’re talking dozens of titles scattered across multiple consoles and multiple decades. Sega is absolutely riddled with old Sonic games, is what I’m saying. Yet for some reason, every collection and compilation contains the same withered handful of...
Frozenheim
I’m a sucker for city builders and building sims. Whether I’m building the city of the future, a theme park or a dinosaur zoo, I’m a happy camper. Frozenheim is two parts city builder, one part RTS. But is this Viking themed sandbox fun to tinker around in?
If you’re reading this as an adult with no kids, same as me, you might ask: wait, the animated show? I associate the masked legend of Zorro with the Antonio Banderas films from the early 2000s, and I hadn’t realized anything major had come to American audiences since.
Most everyone has had at least one crappy job. For me, it was the summer I worked in the Honda warehouse. All day, every day, my job was to count and inventory bins of small auto parts. We’re talking washers, bolts and screws, not fenders and steering wheels. Decades later,...
Deadcraft
We’ll say it again: there isn’t a videogame, movie, or television show not built on the bones of something else. Even if the particular bit of entertainment seems outwardly unique, it probably has a familiar story or maybe character tropes you’ve seen before. Does Deadcraft forge its own identity, or...
Despite its issues, Saber Interactive’s take on the Evil Dead universe has its claws in me. Evil Dead: The Game is competitively thrilling, all the while managing to genuinely feel like the next generation of asymmetrical multiplayer horror. Those that liked Friday the 13th or Dead By Daylight will love Evil...
