Read MoreReview by Tyler T. It’s been over 15 years since Treasure released its spiritual successor to Radiant Silvergun. As a SHMUP, Ikaruga proved divisive upon release due to its puzzle elements, but it’s these same dynamics that make it age so much better than many of its contemporaries. While many…
Read MoreReview by Harvard L. Before I begin the review, I should disclose that I’d purchased it myself, the second I saw it available on the eShop. I have a strong personal history with the series. The original Bloons game was released in 2007 amidst a Flash gaming renaissance, and its…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. I have a seafood allergy. The reason I mention that is that Sushi Striker works of the premise that sushi is so delectable that it’s literally worth going to war over. That’s a bold claim I could never verify myself, so I’m just going to have…

Read MoreReview by Matt S. Samurai Defender is the kind of aggressively pointless experience that I find frustrating beyond all else. There’s nothing wrong with it, but it’s also not memorable in the slightest, and while I don’t expect every video game ever made to be a masterpiece, I do think…
Read MoreNews by Matt S. Rhythm game fans rejoice! The second best rhythm game series of all (after, of course, the Hatsune Miku games) is coming to Nintendo Switch in English. Taiko Drum Master: Nintendo Switch Version is that game and it lands on August 9. There’s a catch, though. That…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. I watched the remake of Cabin Fever the other day. You know, that film about a bunch of dim-witted teenagers that go hang out at a cabin in the remote wilderness, where they drink infected water and become afflicted with the most horrific of diseases that…
