Forgive Me Father Review

Forgive Me Father is a retro-style, Lovecraftian FPS that'll make you go crazy, and probably not in the way you're thinking.

LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga Review

Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga is the magnum opus of LEGO games. It contains a meticulously detailed semi-open world that represents the exhilaration of Star Wars films. It also injects the zany, hallmark LEGO humor with a dash of innovation in combat, puzzling, and more.

Black Geyser: Couriers of Darkness Review

Black Geyser is by all accounts a solid game, but it is a game born in another age, one that ultimately comes with the baggage of its forefathers.

35MM Protagonist
Review

35MM Review

To make an unsubtle comparison, 35MM is like a picture out of focus. Sergey Noskov tries to pack an ambitious amount of stuff within the frame, but forgets what elements might be ill-fitting. When specifically focused on its funereal atmosphere, it's an interesting break from the norm; when weighing its multiple gameplay pitfalls, those strengths begin to fade.

As an exercise in solid sound design and atmosphere, Ikai's take on Japanese folklore stumbles due to shoddy English localization and a few obtuse puzzles.

Martha Is Dead Darkroom
Review

Martha Is Dead Review

In the end, Martha Is Dead conjures up an air of missed opportunity. The WWII backdrop is incredibly realized and the horror atmosphere initially hits the right notes, but as the template becomes more routine and the surprises less interesting it grows more aimless. The few quality ideas get subsumed by the growing tedium of exploring until the stale ending gives its solemn adieu.

WWE 2K22 Review

WWE 2K22 is a solid entry in the long-running series thanks to improved gameplay and a solid suite of modes. Just don't expect a brand new WWE Universe when you load it up.

Time Loader travels back in time for a movie-length excursion into puzzle-solving, platforming, and questionable nostalgia that will be old hat to many.

Aztech Key Art
Review

Aztech Forgotten Gods Review

If there's one overarching takeaway with Lienzo's third effort is that it could've been more. Aside from the soundtrack and some nostalgia-driven creative decisions, I can see this tapestry being improved – marginally or otherwise – in every other respect. That doesn’t outright disregard its accomplishments, but it does dampen my enthusiasm to recommend it, aside from genre fans. Taken as a whole, Aztech Forgotten Gods manages to stay airborne but never truly soars.

Young Souls Review

Young Souls is a game with plenty of good ideas but it never really comes together to take advantage of it. While its art and tone may grip you, its tedious gameplay and lack of experimentation late-game leave me wishing for more

Life Is Strange Remastered Collection Review

Back when they were hitting fever pitch (early/mid 2010s), I was getting reeled into a number of episodic games. DONTNOD's Life is Strange was among them. So, when it was announced that co-developers Deck Nine and Black Tower Studios were helming a remaster duo pack of this beloved first season and prequel, Before the Storm, I had a keen interest in revisiting it. The pertinent concerns become two-fold: how these entries hold up and if enough TLC was given by current remaster standards.

Primordia Review

With a not so great Switch port, Primordia's excellent world building, gorgeous art and compelling main duo still shine through, for those willing to put up with illogical puzzles and forgettable side characters.
