Review by Lindsay M. I’ve never been fond of dungeon crawlers. It’s not even close to a hatred through; it’s actually more of a neutrality. I can see their appeal, but I’ve never found one that makes me truly eager to play for more than a few hours.Related reading: Interested…
Read MoreI think we can almost all, on some level, identify with Baron Von Sottendorff: experiencing going stir-crazy when trapped inside our homes is common, and the Baron is no exception.

Read MoreClannad has a lot of text. Clannad doesn’t have impressive graphics. Clannad is from a decade ago. There are several reasons people could use for disliking Clannad, but each one is another reason I can find to love the game even more. Clannad is a romantic visual novel that was…
Read MoreNo game can simply live on the nostalgia that comes with retro visuals and a catch soundtrack, but it can certainly serve as a good place to start. Zotrix is a decidedly simple game with some good ideas to keep you coming back for more, but that’s only assuming that…

Read MoreTelltale Games is very sneaky. A week after the launch of Minecraft: Story Mode’s first episode, it suddenly launches episode two with no warning. Not that I’m complaining, as I enjoyed the first episode but felt it was more of a prologue than an entire episode, and all of a…
Read More“Adventure Time, c’mon grab your friends. We’ll go to very distant lands. With Jake the dog and Finn the human, the fun will never end, it’s Adventure Time!” The Adventure Time theme song actually suits Adventure Time: Finn & Jake Investigations. I spent my time playing the game with a…
Read MoreI was terrified when it was announced that Telltale was doing a narrative game season based on Minecraft. Minecraft, of all things! The most open-world game available, the game which I have easily sunk hundreds of hours into playing over the past five years, the game which I’ve seen grown…
Read MoreThese credits read like a who’s-who of the video game and sound industries: character design by Doug TenNapel (creator of Earthworm Jim), developed by Ed Schofield and Mike Dietz (the creators of The Neverhood), original score created and recorded by Terry Scott Taylor, and the voice talents of Jon Heder…
