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…

Book review: The Art of Princess Mononoke

December 2, 2014
art books/Book Review/Books/Hayao Miyazaki/Princess Mononoke/Studio Ghibli

Review by Matt S. If you haven’t seen Princess Mononoke yet, then you really should. Arguably Hayao Miyazaki’s (Spirited Away, My Neighbour Totoro) truest masterpiece, the 1997 film is almost more relevant now than it was even then. With such an intense debate raging around environmentalism and humanity’s impact on…

Review by Matt S. It takes just three minutes to turn me from a perfectly competent and confident player of games, able to hold his own in the most competitive of gaming environments, and turn me into a quivering wreck. My palms sweaty, my thumbs slipping off the Dualshock 4’s…

Review: Pier Solar and the Great Architects (Nintendo Wii U)

December 1, 2014
JRPG/Nintendo Wii U/Pier Solad and the Great Architects/Pier Solar/Retro/Reviews/WaterMelon/Wii U Review

Review by Matt S. The story behind Pier Solar and the Great Architects is more interesting than the game itself. Originally a homebrew project that saw a release on the defunct Sega Genesis, the developer, WaterMelon, saw potential in the download platforms on modern consoles to rerelease the game in…

List by Jim S. December is traditionally the quietest month of all for game releases. With all the stuff that launches in November, publishers and developers kick back a little, relax, plan for the next year, and we’re left to try and catch up on our backlog. Not that we’re…
