Video by Harvard L. With a name like “Kana Quest” and the promise that you’ll learn the basics of the Japanese alphabets by playing, you could be mistaken for thinking that this is a game directly out of Japan… but no. Kana Quest is actually an Australian production, and it’s…
Read MoreVideo by Harvard L. Automachef is a puzzle game, but in that very venerable genre, it brings fresh ideas and a whole new vibe to enjoy. In his latest Let’s Play, Harvard talks about why he’s so hooked on this thing, which, from mechanics to design principles, really is much…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. Mirror, a match-3 hentai game on PC, had one thing going for it; it was smutty, and it therefore had a point. Let’s face it, if you are going to enjoy the game, mundane concerns such as a halfway decent narrative or localisation aren’t important. Neither…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. Amazing Brick Breaker is shovelware, just so we’re clear here. This is a game with no fresh ideas, it’s not presented in a way that could be called “interesting”, and it probably took around a month to make. But on the other hand it works and…

Sony’s various subsidiaries had originally…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. On the one hand, I’m very glad to see Puzzle Quest is back. On the other hand, as much as I enjoy Puzzle Question, I’m getting sick of playing the same game over and over as the only truly great example of the series. First released…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. Untitled Goose Game is the perfect game in its simplicity. It gives players a toybox, and then encourages them to mess it up in whatever wildly creative way they can dream up. Every second of it offers up the driest of dry humour which, coupled with…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. The best stories about sexuality and human relationships are often the least sexy. There’s a point where a dive into the relationship between two people, the temptations and challenges they face, starts to become uncomfortably familiar.
