Visual Novel news by Matt S. Hello all! As you already know, the next Dee Dee visual novel will introduce a couple of new characters to the expanded Dee Dee universe (yes, it’s not just Marvel that can pull this off). You already know about Lorin. There’s another one, but…

Video by Matt S. I’m a big fan of Star Ocean – have been since the third game was released on PlayStation 2. However I had never actually played the original, so with Square Enix releasing the remake of it on PlayStation 4 and other consoles, I jumped at the…

Review by Lindsay M. If you found a lost phone on the ground, what would you do? Would you pick it up? Would you actively try to find the owner, or passively wait for someone to ring it? Now what if that phone was left at your doorstop, and when…

Review: Amazing Brick Breaker (Nintendo Switch)

Amazing Brick Breaker/casual/casual games/Nintendo Switch/Puzzle Game/Reviews/Switch Review

Review by Matt S. Amazing Brick Breaker is shovelware, just so we’re clear here. This is a game with no fresh ideas, it’s not presented in a way that could be called “interesting”, and it probably took around a month to make. But on the other hand it works and…

Review by Matt S. Damn it, I so badly wanted to love Lost Ember. It’s a beautiful and heartfelt project that weaves together concepts of ancestry and memory, nature and preservation, and does so in a completely non-violent manner. It’s a game of exploration and discovery, and it is truly…

Review: Decay of Logos (Nintendo Switch)

Amplify Creations/Decay of Logos/JRPG/Nintendo Switch/Reviews/Souls Clone/Switch Review

Review by Matt S. Setting out to make Dark Zelda: Breath of the Souls, and then throwing a dash of Princess Mononoke in there, is certainly a brave and bold move. Portugese-based developer, Amplify Creations, is probably better known within the industry than it is within the gaming community, as…

Review by Matt S. Yes, I’m reviewing a shooty shooty bang bang. Perhaps an even bigger shock is that it is one that I genuinely enjoyed. Sniper Ghost Warrior: Contracts is not even the most high profile or critically lauded in its genre this year, but then given that so…
