At a glance, one might mistake Typoman for the popular 2D platforming/puzzle game Limbo. While it shares some similarities with Limbo thanks to its stark aesthetic that is heavy on the black, Typoman falls short of that game’s level of polish while still carving out its own unique identity. Are…

Animal Crossing: amiibo Festival (Nintendo Wii U)

Animal Crossing/Animal Crossing: amiibo Festival/board game/digital board game/Nintendo/Nintendo Wii U/Reviews/Wii U Review

Amiibo Festival is more proof of concept than a major release from Nintendo, so let’s get that out of the way from the outset; come into this expecting some kind of deep, lasting, rich experience and you’ll probably be disappointed. To its benefit it works really quite well, and carries…

Flight is a more difficult mechanic to execute within a game than many pause to think on. By its very nature flight implies freedom, scale, and a limitless room for exploration. A good game that makes flight a central mechanic should offer a sensation of soaring through the air, of…

Review: Project Zero: Maiden of Black Water (Nintendo Wii U)

Fatal Frame/Fatal Frame: Maiden of Black Water/Horror/Koei Tecmo/Nintendo/Nintendo Wii U/Project Zero/Survival Horror/Wii U Review

I have an fascination with water. Give me a camera and I can spend a whole day photographing the ocean, a river or a waterfall, for example. It’s not just that water is so essential to life that it appeals to me; it’s the aesthetics of water that I find…

Review: Devil’s Third (Nintendo Wii U)

Nintendo Wii U/Reviews/Shooter/shooters/Tamonobu Itagaki/The Devil's Third/Wii U Review

“What do they make these out of?” An all-American soldier asks, after setting down explosives to take down a locked (traditional) Japanese gate, only for those explosives to go boom and the gate left without so much as a scratch. For me, that moment became the defining moment of Devil’s…

Review: Brave Tank Hero (Nintendo Wii U)

Arc System Works/Arcade/Brave Tank Hero/Natsume/Nintendo/Reviews/tank battle/tank game/Wii U/Wii U eShop/Wii U Review

Brave Tank Hero is a distressing affair. On one hand, arena-based tank combat games ought to be explored on consoles and Natsume deserves serious props for publishing one at all. On the other, this game is the embodiment of everything that could possibly go wrong with the untapped subgenre. Related…

2D platformer/Mario/Nintendo/Nintendo Wii U/Online/platformer/Reviews/Super Mario Maker/user generated content/Wii U Review

The idea of making my own Super Mario levels has been a dream of mine for literally decades. Sure there have been shady means to do it through emulation, but I just did not have the time nor the patience for that. But fast forward to 2015 and my dream…

Yoshi and his mates are evil… pure evil. They can no longer trick us under that cute facade they have been hiding behind all these years. Yoshi and his mates are evil, so is Kamek, and the war between evil and evil has resulted in far too many Shy Guy…

Kebabs. Everyone loves them, even the Vikings, according to Ronimo Game’s latest adventure. Swords & Soldiers 2 once again follows the Viking Redbeard, as he fights against demons, Persians and his nemesis, Blackbeard, so save the world (and his lunch). The original Swords & Soldiers was released back in 2009,…

Review: Splatoon (Nintendo Wii U)

Multiplayer/Multiplayer shooter/Nintendo Wii U/Reviews/Shooter/shooters/Splatoon/Wii U Review

I wasn’t sold on Splatoon at first. I had no love of the modern children’s cartoon aesthetic that I saw in trailers and video, and while I did appreciate that Nintendo was looking to get involved in the shooter genre in a more family friendly, bloodless, and original way, I…
