Review by Pierre-Yves L. Millennium: A New Hope is the re-release of the first game of the Millennium series from Aldorlea. Released back in 2009 the reason we have this re-release is courtesy of a Greenlight through Valve’s Steam download platform. As previously mentioned when we reviewed another of Aldorlea’s…
Read MoreReview by Clark A. Agarest Generations of War Zero is something of a rarity on Steam. It’s one of the virtual platform’s few tactics-based JRPGs and it boasts a single player campaign length that trumps most, potentially leaking beyond the hundred hour mark.

Read MoreReview by Pierre-Yves L. 3 Stars of Destiny is the latest game from indie outfit Aldorlea Games and is a prequel to its Laxius Force Trilogy (now actually a saga). It looks and feels like an RPG Maker game, but there’s a very good reason this one is sold on…
