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…

Alpha Kimori/Indie/JRPG/PC/Reviews

Review by Pierre-Yves L. Getting right into it, the first episode of Alpha Kimori, Great Doubt, is a perfect example of an excellently crafted indie JRPG. While having been built while using RPG Maker, just about every element has been created from scratch which generally would be impressive alone, however…

Fearless Fantasy/Indie/JRPG/PC/Reviews/satire/turn based

Review by Pierre-Yves L. Fearless Fantasy… FF… where have we seen this acronym before? Must be my imagination. Fearless Fantasy is an interesting take on a combat heavy turned based RPG. Where this differs from other RPGs is that it takes a page from Sony’s Legend of the Dragoon in…
