In hindsight, I probably shouldn’t have played ArcRunner. While it looks the part of a cyberpunk dystopia, the game itself was clearly only ever going to be a roguelike shooter drenched in neon. While it’s easy to say that you shouldn’t criticise a game for not being something it never…

Read MoreSquare Enix has dropped a ton of information about SaGa Emerald Beyond, the latest standalone title in the SaGa franchise that was first announced during a Nintendo Direct last September.

Read MoreThe Rose & Camellia games first launched as one hit online Flash game in the 00s, gaining popularity as sequels were released. They are odd genre mash-up of visual novel and slap’em up (if that even counts as a genre). I only heard about the series last year during Limited…
