Games anthology The Immortal John Triptych brings together Four Last Things, The Procession to Calvary, and Death of the Reprobate. It comes complete with never-before-seen bonus features, deleted scenes, and a Quality of Life (QoL) facelift. The “gloriously silly” anthology will be released later this year for consoles.…
The original Corsairs launched over 20 years ago, and had the player taking on the role of a privateer in the service of England, France, or Holland, seeking to gain fame and wealth for the chosen country. The franchise returns with Corsairs: Battle of the Caribbean, bringing old-school strategy into…
Read MoreHere we sit, two weeks away from Dordogne’s launch. The game both looks stunning and features interesting gameplay, and I’m excited to eventually get my hands on it. Set in the South of France, the game follows a woman as she explores the home in which she spent her childhood…
Read MoreBee-keeping sim Apico is quite bee-loved (Matt even featured it in his interesting games on an itch.io roundup), and is currently available basically everywhere… except anything Xbox. Well, that’s set to change – though I can’t tell you when past it will happen “soon.” As it does on current platforms,…
Read MoreToodee and Topdee (it’s a weird name but I kind of like it) combines 2D platformer and top-down puzzler into one unique game. In fact, the game started with the idea to merge those two different genres as a game jam prototype. They got great feedback, and Toodee and Topdee…

Read More“Roguelike” and “city builder” aren’t often mashed together into a single genre, but that’s what Dice Legacy does as a roguelike survival city builder where players lead their realm by rolling dice. Harvard quite liked the original launch of Dice Legacy (his review here), and since then there have been…
Read MoreI 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 MoreI sure am tired of comparing creature-collecting games to Pokémon, but most seem to be inspired by it. Cassette Beasts is no different: it’s got a very Pokémon-esque quality to it, but then turns that around with something new – creature-fusing! There are over 100 monsters to collect and transform…
Read MoreWhen Disney Dreamlight Valley first came out in early access last year, I was obsessed for weeks. My interest in the Disney-based life sim-type game has definitely waned a bit since then, but with every update my interest is renewed. Today, the Pride of the Valley update was released, and…
