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…

Hakuoki/Hakuoki: Kyoto Winds/Idea Factory/otome/PC/PC Review/Reviews/Shinsengumi/visual novel

Review by Ginny W. Hakuoki: Kyoto Winds occupies a unique space between a game and a neat education in the history of feudal Japan, and it deserves praise for meticulously carving out this space despite traditional notions of what otome games are meant to be like. Visual novels are often…

Compile Heart/dungeon crawl/dungeon crawler/Idea Factory/JRPG/Mary Skelter: Nightmares/PlayStation Vita/Reviews/Vita Review

Review by Matt S. Mary Skelter is the oddest game that Compile Heart has produced. It’s the least sexualised game from the studio that has made it its M.O to get girls down to their underwear at every opportunity, and yet it’s also often the most erotic in tone. It’s…
