Review: Destiny Connect: Tick-Tock Travelers (Nintendo Switch)

October 21, 2019

Destiny Connect/Destiny Connect: Tick Tock Travelers/JRPG/Nintendo Switch/Nippon Ichi Software/NISA/Reviews/Switch Review

Review by Matt S. What a sweet little JRPG Tick-Tock Travelers is. It runs at about 20 hours in length, it has a difficulty level that’s pitched for the young, a charm that will appeal to the young at heart, and it offers a nice little riff on the the…

Review: Felix The Reaper (Nintendo Switch)

Felix the Reaper/Indie/Nintendo Switch/Puzzle Game/Reviews/Switch Review

Review by Trent P. The relationship Felix The Reaper has with music and with dance is the kind of feeling you get at a wedding (that is not your own). That bubbly free flowing love music that permeates the entire music selection. However it also feels like it comes from…

Video by Matt S. Spike Chunsoft’s next one is Conception Plus; a roguelike JRPG with a more than healthy dose of fan service and all the hilarity that brings. But as I explore in this video, there is so much more to Conception than that. It won’t necessarily resonate with…

News by Matt S. One of the bits of news that flew a little under the radar, among everything else that Gust and Koei Tecmo is doing at the moment, was that we’d be getting a package of all three Dusk games on PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch and PC. Gust…

News by Matt S. Square Enix really does produce a good developer diary. It’s been running a series, looking at the various classic Final Fantasy games, and how they got made. Closer to a documentary than a bit of marketing collateral, these videos do provide some great insights into the…

Review: Raging Loop (Nintendo Switch)

October 17, 2019

Horror/Kemco/Nintendo Switch/PQube/Raging Loop/Reviews/Survival Horror/Switch Review/visual novel

Review by Matt S. Raging Loop is a fascinating little game. It’s cheaply made, and its very limited production values do prevent the game from ever getting the dark horror atmosphere that the narrative deserves, but after an adjustment period you’ll put all that to the side, because what matters…

Review: Mary Skelter 2 (Nintendo Switch)

Review by Matt S. Given that I reviewed the original Mary Skelter: Nightmares, it’s actually difficult to find new things to say about Mary Skelter 2, above and beyond what I’ve already written. The reality is that while the two titles tell different stories, thematically, they tread the exact same…

Review: Silk (Nintendo Switch)

October 16, 2019

Chris Bateman/Indie/Nintendo Switch/open world game/Reviews/RPG/Silk/simulation/Switch Review/trader game/turn based

Review by Matt S. Silk is what happens when a independent developer has a wildly ambitious idea, and the gonads to actually make it. Silk proudly proclaims that it is “50 times larger than Daggerfall!” and offers “three million square miles of uncharted terrain” to explore. That sounds impressive –…
