Review by Matt S. The first Danganronpa was a masterclass in narrative storytelling. Taking a series of murder mysteries, and wrapping them up in a philosophical framework that covered everything from Schrodinger’s Cat to nihilism, game theory to morality, it’s the kind of game that you could replay over and…
Read MoreReview by Sam M. CounterSpy places itself within the Cold War. Two sides, the Imperialist States and the Socialist Republic are competing in the Space Race. But it’s not the race you’re most likely thinking of. It’s a race to blow up the moon. C.O.U.N.T.E.R. has been tasked with finding…
Read MoreReview by Nick H. We’ve already seen plenty of remastered games this generation. Some are well worthwhile (The Last Of Us), while others are most certainly not (Tomb Raider). Metro 2033 and Last Light were both excellent titles, and now they’ve been given the update treatment, with a variety of…

Read MoreReview by Shaan J. CounterSpy is a different breed of game. Sure, there are plenty of other titles that focus on the Cold War, but most other games instead focus on over the top action (which isn’t really synonymous with the Cold War to begin with), or depict the conflict…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. Okay, let’s start this review by talking about these so-called “walking simulators.” Games that are largely devoid of action, where players explore worlds and narratives by simply walking from place to place and, generally speaking, don’t kill stuff. There’s more and more of them being developed,…
Read MoreReview by Jedediah H. One of my best friends who like me considers himself to be a hyperactive gaming aficionado avoids games he considers childish. “Kiddie crap,” he calls them. So when he joined and observed one of my late night streams of The Last Tinker: City of Colors, his…
Read MoreReview by Nick H. I really, really enjoyed the recent Guardians of the Galaxy film, and pinball is a hit here at Digitally Downloaded. So, logically, this table should be an absolute hit with me, right? Things get off to a good start, but there are a few hiccups along…
