June 19, 2014

Arcade/Art Game/Entwined/Indie/PlayStation/PlayStation 4/Reviews

Review by Matt S. Entwined is a bittersweet story about relationships. Abstract as it is, it’s a heartfelt look at the way relationships function, and serves a reminder that communication within a relationship can be difficult, and can even break down, but the ultimate reward for getting it right is…

Review by Matt S. Qvadriga is a turn-based tactical strategy game about chariot racing in the ancient Roman Empire. Let’s let this sink in for a second; it’s a game that reduces one of the most chaotic and dangerous sports the world has ever known to a slow, turn based…

Review by Matt S. Panzer Tactics was a remarkably obscure tactical-level strategy game on the Nintendo DS. Heavily inspired by the classic Panzer General franchise, Panzer Tactics quickly fell into obscurity as a sad consequence of being on a console where strategy fans don’t generally go.

Review by Rob P. We need to talk about Matt. You know Matt, right? He’s our editor, and he plays games for a living. But I’m worried that he’s taking it too far. He’s already admitted to spending too much time with hardcore strategy games, and Distant Worlds: Universe might…

Review: AiRace Xeno (Nintendo 3DS)

3DS eShop/Indie Game/Nintendo/Nintendo 3DS/Qubic Games/Racing Game/Reviews

Review by Chris I. AiRace Xeno is a fitting title for this game, considering the game takes the exact same formula as its predecessor, AiRace Speed, but adds an alien-styled theme to it. “AiRace Dubstep Edition” would be an even better fit, because it’s the crazy hard hitting techno beats…

Review by Matt S. Digital Devil Saga has long been the forgotten child of the Shin Megami Tensei franchise. Abstract, cold, and remorselessly dark, this effort by Atlus was supposedly meant to be an accessible game in a franchise notorious for not being accessible at all. From that perspective I’m…

News by Matt S. As we reported a few weeks ago, a significant investment from the Australian Government into games development was stripped away. The bad news is that means no more money for game developers in Australia from its government. The good news is that there are alternate funding…
