The last Super Monkey Ball game to launch for Nintendo Switch was a remake of the original two games, compiled under the banner of Super Monkey Ball Banana Mania. And it wasn’t so good, as Matt explains in his review. Super Monkey Ball Banana Rumble, the next upcoming game in the series, is hopefully different because it is completely new…
It was only a couple of weeks ago that I wrote about PQube publishing The Bridge Curse 2: The Extrication in the West (you can read that here). At the time there was nothing mentioned of a release date past 2024, so I wasn’t expecting a launch date so soon.…
Read MoreDating visual novel games often have somewhat unique stories, but generally tend to use the same formula: of one person meets a bunch of people, said one person likes said bunch of people, and said one person must choose one from the bunch of people to live with harmoniously forever.…

Read MoreI’m not going to sugarcoat it: I have developed what might be described as an unhealthy obsession with certain reality TV shows. 1999 was integral when it comes to some of the shows that I’m still watching: it was the year Big Brother was created, and The Real World and…

The game features six protagonists in five unique story arcs; you can play the same arc two times and get…
Read MoreAdorable, cozy, animal-themed games are trendy these days thanks to titles like Apico (okay that’s technically an insect but close enough), Bunhouse, Calico, and Cat Café Manager – and I’m into all of it. Last June I learned about Kamaeru: A Frog Refuge, a cozy froggy farming sim that was…
Read MoreI’m obsessed with Botany Manor and it hasn’t even launched yet. What I’ve seen of the first-person botanical puzzle game set in a historically accurate 19th-century Somerset manor is soothing yet also tickles my mind a little bit. It is the debut game of Balloon Studios and published by Whitethorn…
Read MoreClass of Heroes and Class of Heroes 2 were both initially released for PSP, launching back in the late 2000s. A remaster of the first game did launch in 2018, but never left Japan. So now, fifteen years after the originals, seems like a darned good time to bring remasters…

Read MoreThe Corpse Party series is a bit confusing if you’re a newcomer. The first game in the series, originally launched in the mid-’90s, has been remade/re-released a ridiculous amount of times. There’s a sequel that isn’t a sequel but also is one (it’s literally called Corpse Party 2: Dead Patient).…
