Art Game/erotic/fan service/Horror/Indie/Nintendo Switch/Reviews/sex/Survival Horror/Switch reviews

Review by Matt S. Wow is Red Colony a red hot mess. About the only thing that saves it is that it is so unpolished that it’s difficult to determine if its nastier edges were intended or simply because the developer that didn’t have a firm grasp on what they…

China/Indie/Nintendo Switch/Reviews/rhythm game/Roguelike/Switch Review

Review by Matt S. Rhythm Fighter suffers from excess. In trying to be so many mechanical and structural elments, and then backing it up with so much happening on screen at once, it loses any sense of balance that it might otherwise have had. While it’s a noble and even…

Review by Matt S. There must be some kind of audience there for visual novel smut specialist, querate, on the Nintendo Switch. On the back of NinNinDays, TroubleDays and KukkoroDays, comes not one, but two Fantasy Tavern Sextet titles (with a third apparently on the way). I never did review…

Video by Matt S. Persona 5 Strikers is right around the corner now, and we’ve had the opportunity to get hands-on with the game. It. Is. Amazing. Right off the bat the game is the most brilliant mix of both Warriors and Persona and shows just how far Koei is…

That A-Train Switch game now has an English website too

January 15, 2021

A-Train/News

News by Matt S. It might be a relatively minor bit of news, but we’re going to stick with this, because A-Train is the best simulation series that almost no one knows about, and this is going to be a great opportunity to learn why the series is so good.…
