Creeping Terror/Horror/stalker horror/Sushi Typhoon

Article by Matt S. Last week I reviewed Tokyo Tattoo Girls, and it was one of the most distinctive, original, and interesting strategy games that I’ve ever played. The developer, Sushi Typhoon, also partnered with Aksys to release a horror game in the west just in time for Halloween on…

DLC Review/Guerrilla Games/Horizon Zero Dawn The Frozen Wilds/Horizon: Zero Dawn/PlayStation 4/PS4 Review/Reviews/RPG/Sony

Review by Brad L. Snow levels are the bane of my existence. Many games have their wintery themed levels, which to me generally look uninspired, and use the snow and ice as an excuse to offer the player a new challenge in making the floors slippery and difficult to navigate.…

Gear.Club Unlimited/Nintendo Switch/Racing Game/Reviews/Switch Review

Review by Matt S. One of the genres that the Nintendo Switch is going to struggle with is racing games that are more serious in tone than Mario Kart. It has nothing to do with the power of the console, but rather, the way it’s designed. Specifically, it lacks analogue…

Review by Trent P. The line “What could possibly go wrong?” is arguably more famous than the Bubsy series itself. While the original Bubsy, Claws Encounters of the Furred Kind, gained a cult following, the later entries were rushed to market and greatly lacked in quality. This all cumulated in…
