Why I can’t review Martha is Dead

I don’t believe topics should be ignored in games, but I do believe that certain issues need to be handled delicately; things like mental illness, sexual assault, and war are not topics to be taken lightly. LKA is, to me, best known for approaching some very sensitive topics in The…

News by Matt S. Final Fantasy IX is a beloved masterpiece of the PlayStation 1 era. So much so that the game’s re-re-re-release on the Nintendo Switch has been right at the top of the charts ever since it launched. Now Square Enix has released a rather impressive “developer diary,”…

Review by Matt S. Ninja Village is a Kairosoft game, and if you don’t know what that means, then you haven’t played a Kairosoft game before. The developer, which previously stuck to the mobile platform like glue, has recently hit the Nintendo Switch with a flood of ports, and has…

Review: A Ghost of a Tale (Sony PlayStation 4)

March 20, 2019

A ghost of a tale/Ghost of a Tale/PlayStation 4/PS4 Review/Reviews

Review by Matt S. Ghost of a Tale represents the indie development spirit at its best. A delightful little stealth game, produced largely by a single person, it’s a game the eschews refinement for spirit and soul, and as a result it’s one of the more memorable examples of its…

Review by Matt S. You’d never know this today, but I used to be a big fan of the FPS. Back when the genre represented the finest transgressive energy in the games industry, and when the limited hardware on offer meant that developers aimed for the fantastic and abstract, rather…

Review by Matt S. It must be difficult making one of those “1 vs 1,000” action games, in the vein of Koei Tecmo’s Dynasty Warriors series. They obviously sell well enough (because Koei keeps making them), but so few developers even try, much less approach the quality of what Koei…
