Review by Pierre-Yves L. Knack’s original adventure launched alongside the PS4 back in late 2013. Back again, and this time looking to offer more than what seemed to be a tech demo, Knack 2 starts off years later with the world’s future not look promising as robot hordes march through…
Read MoreReview by Brad L. Everybody’s Golf is a series that has quite honestly gone through just as many changes as the PlayStation itself has over the past twenty years. Much like the golfing games by Camelot (think the Mario Golf games and We Love Golf on the Wii), they have…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. The Metronomicon: Slay The Dance Floor is such a good idea. Such a good idea. Merging rhythm game action with RPG character development is a marriage of mechanics that should have worked a treat for someone like me, who almost exclusively plays RPGs and rhythm games.…
Read MoreReview by Jim S. There are a few games out there that mash-up RPG leveling and puzzles, like Puzzle Quest or Puzzle & Dragons. Most of them are match three games, drawing inspiration from Bejewelled, but SwapQuest does something very different and unique; it melds together RPG and Pipe Mania.…

Read MoreReview by Moshe R. Ken Follett’s books were there for me as I was growing up. His brand was that type of fiction thriller that is heavily spiced with historical authenticity. I mostly recall his Eye of the Needle, set in World War 2 (and also made into a movie,…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. Where the hell is Lady Sun, Koei Tecmo? Or Oichi, Meruru, Casty from Ar Nosurge, Firis, one of the girls from Blue Reflection, and any number of my other favourite characters? This game is terrible! I jest, of course. Warriors All-Stars actually has a stellar cast,…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. I’m going to start this review by referencing Piko-Taro… and you thought that his 15 seconds of fame was over and everyone was sane again. See, what is so great, and so hilarious about PPNP is the fundamental absurdity of mashing two completely unrelated things together.…
Read MoreReview by Lindsay M. I tend to go into point-and-click adventure games with a positive bias; I adore the genre’s classic gameplay and narrative structure, and I tend to seek out the good until it overshadows the bad. Then comes Demetrios, a game I wanted so desperately to enjoy. A…
