We got our first look at Monster Menu: The Scavenger’s Cookbook in last September’s NIS America Showcase featuring games coming west in early 2023. Well, the “early” part of the year has nearly passed, and the games have mostly been released… except Monster Menu: The Scavenger’s Cookbook. It’s a new…
Read MoreEvery now and then a free-to-play game catches my eye. Right now, I’m looking at RPG social sim Life Makeover. It allows players to design their avatars, outfits, and home, all while experiencing an interactive story and social life. It’s also stunning. The game is already big in places like…
Read MoreI know exactly where I stand on modernizing books from the past: I despise it with every fibre of my being. I recently reread a bunch of Lois Duncan books but they were newer versions, and despite being set in like the 70s every had cell phones (just forgot them…
Read MoreI’m not going to lie: I completely forgot about Dordogne between November 2022’s Nintendo Indie World showcase and today’s release date announcement.

Read MoreDon’t Nod is one of my favourite developers (though I keep forgetting the slight name change), thanks in large part to the original Life Is Strange. It’s made some solid games otherwise, though, including Tell Me Why and Gerda: A Flame in Winter. Its next title, Harmony: The Fall of…
Read MoreShadowman may sound familiar to you – it’s a comic that started back in 1992, and has since sold millions of copies and had two video games based off it. Shadow Man was released in 1999, and Shadow Man: 2end Coming was released in 2002; both games feature protagonist Michael…
Read MoreThere hasn’t been a Double Dragon title in well over five years: the last, developed by Arc System Works, was Double Dragon IV in early 2017. It didn’t review that well, with Brad scoring it 2.5/5 stars. That’s… not good. Well, the torch has been passed new a new developer…
