Review by Matt S. The Keep is a real-time dungeon crawler with a very old-school sensibility to it. It revels in the simplistic, retro B-grade narrative and design that it brings to the table, and is just self-aware enough to have fun with it. It’s the kind of game that…

Review by Matt S. What a Christmas gift Dynasty Warriors 8: Xtreme Legends Definitive Edition (hereafter DW8:XL) was from Koei Tecmo.
