Review by Nick H. So when I first heard about Super Motherload, I was at a bit of a loss. It is not often that a new console release relies on a nearly seven year old Flash game as the basis of a launch title, but that is essentially what…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. I suspect this game is going to annoy Nintendo fans. Without crossing into plagiarism, Oceanhorn is a faithful recreation of the basic Zelda aesthetic and gameplay structure, and not only that but it brings more new ideas to the famous formula than most modern Zelda games…
