December 7, 2017

casual/casual games/iPhone Review/Reigns/Reigns: Her Majesty/Reviews/simulation

Review by Lindsay M. The Queen is dead. These words may send shivers down the spines of the Queen’s constituents, but for me it’s a sign of rebirth. Mostly because, let’s be real, if the Queen is dead then I did a terrible job of making her choices for her.…

Review by Matt C. In the past week or so, I’ve had a very difficult time putting down Sky Force Reloaded. I’ve stayed up far later than I should almost every night, trapped in a “just one more go!” loop. I’ve excitedly bought other games, only to watch them collect…

Review by Clark A. Visual novels in the vein of Danganronpa and Steins;Gate have garnered a broader, worldwide audience in recent years.

It’s that time of year again! The decorations are out, the house smells of Christmas thanks to the tree in the living room, presents are sitting under the tree and all the good food is on the table. We do love Christmas at DDNet, and as always, we’re doing an advent calendar…

JRPG/PlayStation 4/PS4 Review/Reviews/Square Enix/Star Ocean/Star Ocean 4

Review by Matt S. I actually came to the PlayStation 3 relatively late into its life cycle. It really was a remarkably expensive console at first, especially for a young guy at time struggling on the kind of incomes that young professionals earn in Australia. Related reading: Matt’s review of…

Review by Matt C. One of the best things about the Nintendo, as a publisher, is the wide range of games they release. They cater to every taste, with everything from Zelda and Metroid to Brain Training and Muscle March, and rather than a way to make a quick buck,…
