What’s quite incredible about Spartan Assault is that it has managed to encapsulate the atmosphere and design of the Halo games, previously exclusive to Microsoft systems, into the confines of an iPad. From the way troops behave, to the weapons and locations, it feels like an authentic Halo experience, even…

Agatsuma Entertainment/platformer/PlayStation/puzzle platformer/Retro/Reviews/Sayonara Umihara Kawase/Vita Review

Sayonara Umihara Kawase is no fishing simulator but it might as well be dubbed Reel Fishing 2015. To play is to hop into a boat and drench your lure in the waters of discovery for the first time. It’s a comparison that should have zero business being applied to a…

Legend of Grimrock was something of an indie revelation when it was released on the PC back in 2012. As an attempt to modernise the classic dungeon crawler, it retained the nostalgic rush that had people glued to their screens back when Might & Magic, Wizardry, and SSI’s Dungeons &…
