I know exactly where I stand on modernizing books from the past: I despise it with every fibre of my being. I recently reread a bunch of Lois Duncan books but they were newer versions, and despite being set in like the 70s every had cell phones (just forgot them…
Read MoreShadowman may sound familiar to you – it’s a comic that started back in 1992, and has since sold millions of copies and had two video games based off it. Shadow Man was released in 1999, and Shadow Man: 2end Coming was released in 2002; both games feature protagonist Michael…
Read MoreThere hasn’t been a Double Dragon title in well over five years: the last, developed by Arc System Works, was Double Dragon IV in early 2017. It didn’t review that well, with Brad scoring it 2.5/5 stars. That’s… not good. Well, the torch has been passed new a new developer…

Read MoreI’m obsessed with anything picross (more commonly known as nonograms). The puzzle games involve using the numbers surrounding a board to fill in spaces and create an image. I’ve sunk a stupid amount of time into picross games, including MIKULOGI on my iPad (there’s a Nintendo Switch version too). I…
Read MoreI only recently read my first Agatha Christie novel, And Then There Were None. I was blown away, but a bit intimidated to get into the Poirot series as it is just so extensive. The existence of his cases in video game, form, makes them seem much more accessible for…
Read MoreBack in the early to mid ’90s, I was obsessed with educational games. Platformers? Nah. Shooters? Nah. Just let me learn!
