iOS/iPad/Ossian Studios/Reviews/RPG/The Shadow Sun

Review by Matt S. The Shadow Sun floored me from start to finish. It’s been quite some time now since a developer took on the task of an exclusive, new, RPG for the iOS platform that offers modern production values, but that’s precisely what’s happened here, and the result is…

As everyone who knows me knows I have a slight obsession with Tecmo Koei’s Warriors franchise, and I love how the developers over there keep turning the formula to a range of different Anime/ Manga and JRPG franchises. A Zelda Warriors (tentatively titled “Hyrule Warriors”) game on the Wii U…

Review by Matt S. Wayforward is usually reliable. Even when it’s building licensed titles it’s usually reliable (Thor on the DS is a truly great brawler).

Preview by Matt S. A couple of months ago I had the opportunity to play an early build of Tecmo Koei and Comcept’s collaboration project, Yaiba: Ninja Gaiden Z. I was more than a little impressed by that early build, as Keiji Inafune’s new zombie slasher seemed to be channeling…
