It's important to keep in mind the price point for this petite adventure ($9.99 USD) makes it an ever-enticing opportunity for gamers to explore the world B.U.D. finds himself on for those looking to kill some time and take in a world so lovingly pieced together by the studio Ubisoft...
Even if most players probably won't be able to recognize the subtle tweaks made to Madden NFL 17 under the hood that help it to be a superior football game, they will be able to recognize its wealth of accessibility options, its improved visuals, and that it is the most...
Worms W.M.D
It took plenty of time, but Team17 has finally found what new gaming features compliment the 2D landscape, and has dropped the features from previous titles which didn't. Gone are half-baked water physics and worm classes, replaced by more creative and complimentary features like vehicles, crafting, and building interiors. The three...
However, if the idea of spending hours mining a planet for gold to buy a ship with 24 slots compared to your current ship’s 18 sounds in the least bit boring, then No Man’s Sky is not for you. And that’s okay. This is a game that its own developer...
Brut@l
Overall, Brut@l has an interesting look, and old-school gamers will probably appreciate its nods to one of gaming's oldest genres. It functions on a basic level as a competent dungeon crawler, but its repetitive gameplay combined with its cheap deaths will make most gamers look for other options. The game just doesn't...
Bound
That being said, we found each level to be interesting and fun to explore from start to end, but gamers looking for a challenge beyond speed will likely not find it in Bound. The game only takes a handful of hours to beat on the first playthrough and doesn't have...
Challenging players through gameplay doesn't seem to be what Spearhead Games is interested in, however. It's hard to find a game released this year that is so deft at telling a story while giving players so many looking glasses through which to view it, and for a game that's true ending...
Even though Headlander may be lacking in terms of quantity, the content it does have is quality. As far as Metroidvania games go, it's one of the betters ones, utilizing its unique premise for some effective dark humor and interesting gameplay mechanics. It's safe to say that both fans of...
At its heart, Necropolis is a dungeon crawler with plenty of potential. The premise of a procedurally generated rogue-like experience sounds fun, and it certainly starts off that way - but once things start to get repetitive and the game slows down to a familiar grind, the brittle bones of...
It wouldn't be Ghostbusters without jokes and the game certainly attempts to land quite a few. The game's characters have a lot of energy and banter, but the enthusiasm for ghostbusting doesn't carry over to humor that well. It feels a lot more in line with the tone of The...
Still, these drawbacks feel like nit-picking in a game that set out to revitalize the traditional JRPG and wholeheartedly succeeded. I Am Setsuna might not be the most innovative or technologically demanding game released this year - or even in the past five - but it is one of the most...
Nonetheless, Lost Sea is still a fun game to pick up and play. It may not achieve the same level of status as some of the other games in its market, but its generally relaxing gameplay and eye-catching visuals will certainly find some love. Unfortunately, a lack of cohesive play...
