Review by Matt S. There’s no development house out there that quite understands the fairy tale aesthetic like Nippon Ichi does. Its habit of playing up the darker side of the Grimm Brothers aesthetic, with a healthy dose of anime exaggeration, was what made earlier efforts like Witch and the…

News by Matt S. Publisher, FuRyu, has been behind niche hits like The Caligula Effect and Lost Dimension, and we’re hoping that Yuuna and the Haunted Hot Spring, based on the anime, can continue the trend. Yuuna is a mystery dungeon experience (hence the “Dungeon” in the title), and it…

News by Matt S. The Last Remnant is one of those titles in Square Enix’s backlog that has an awful lot of respect, but relatively few people have had the chance to play it. It’s available on PC, but for console fans you’d need to get yourself an Xbox 360…

News by Lindsay M. Germany has strict laws about the use of Nazi imagery, and who could blame it?

News by Matt S. I don’t think anyone expected to see another Space Channel 5 happen, but happen it is, and in VR no less. Everything’s better in VR. There’s a new trailer, showing off the uniquely oddball aesthetic and tone of Space Channel 5, in which you need to…

Review: Valkyria Chronicles 4 (Nintendo Switch)

JRPG/Nintendo Switch/Reviews/Sega/Switch Review/Tactics RPG/Valkyria Chronicles/Valkyria Chronicles 4

Review by Matt S. After the Valkyria Revolution experiment proved to be a disaster with series fans, being far too experimental and different from its predecessors, I’m not surprised that Valkyria Chronicles 4 veered so far back to the series genesis that there were times I could have easily confused…
