Why developers still insist on locking away harder difficulty levels is beyond me. Here we have a novel 2D beat ’em up that oozes style through and through, but its flashiness is soon overshadowed when all the player does is near-mindlessly tap away at the same two or three buttons.…
Read MoreWar: The Game is a new global-scale wargame that is being pitched as a budget-priced multiplayer game of grand scale. Because it looks a little basic in static screenshots, we’ve decided to instead do a video review of this one. Rob delves into the way the game is balanced, the…
Read MoreKemco is one of the oldest game publishers in the industry, having been around since the 80s. Recently it has been targeting fans of JRPGs on both the iOS and the Android platforms with a very rapid series of classic-style JRPGs on mobile. I’ve played more than a few of…
