I have a real soft spot for Damsel, a game that feels as though it was made specifically to appeal to a fifteen year old version of myself. Platformer and Shoot ’em Up are two classic genres, and a mix of both feels like a […]

Read MoreBefore this interview, I’d seen Aura of Worlds around for quite awhile, and I’ve watched it change a lot in that time. A rogue-lite platformer with an immediately old-school appearance, with some excellent detail below the surface level, it’s a game that tugs on many […]
Read MoreIt seems that the indie area of the expo floor at PAX Aus gets bigger every year, and this year was no exception with sixty games on show. Some of these titles were chosen because of their unique ideas and exceptionally well-executed mechanics. Others [...]

Read MoreWhen I first saw the leaks for Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle, my mind was immediately filled with images of Shadow the Hedgehog holding a gun. It seemed like an idea that just wasn’t going to work. Now that it’s here, however, I’m pleasantly surprised […]

Read MoreI’ve compared Agents of Mayhem to Saints Row a lot in this review, and perhaps some of you reading might think that unfair. I think it’s entirely appropriate, however, since at their core they are essentially the same game, and there’s even some canon crossover […]
Read MoreIt took me a long time to get back around to finishing off The Walking Dead: A New Frontier for full review, and, honestly, it’s because I knew exactly what it was going to be like. TWD games from Telltale these days are the same […]
