game review

One of the biggest games that people have been demanding from Nintendo since the Switch came out is another Animal Crossing game. It took a while, but you got one. The last official game that wasn't a spinoff was Animal Crossing: New Leaf on the 3DS, released back in 2012. And shy of all of […]

Ever since Bethesda Softworks resurrected DOOM for the masses back in 2016, fans knew a sequel like DOOM Eternal was inevitable. The first original game in twelve years brought the franchise back to where it needed to be. One man on a mission to destroy every demon in his path and seal every gate from […]

At long last, Overwatch has finally landed on Nintendo Switch. After what seemed like a constant waltz of "will they or won't they" with Blizzard following a leaked Overwatch Switch case on Amazon, the official announcement game. Busy, casual, and downright lazy Overwatch fans across the world rejoiced. Sure, the graphics and performance would obviously […]

Clear back in 1993, when the Game Boy was still a hot commodity for gaming on the go, The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening was a battery killer. Back when I owned the original, I must have beat it about half a dozen times on the Game Boy, Game Boy Color, and Super Game Boy. […]

Gang Beasts is a multiplayer party game where players control gelatinous characters and take part in slaptstick fight sequences. It's a party game meant to be taken lightly, which is great, except that the player base is so small it makes the online matchmaking pointless. The concept and execution are relatively solid, however, unless you […]

Tripwire Interactive and publisher Deep Silver released the Killing Floor: Double Feature eariler this year to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the franchise. The Double Feature includes both Killing Floor 2 and Killling Floor: Incursion which is a VR spin-off of the franchise. Both games stick to the basic formula of having players brutally murder a bunch of […]

Klabater and Polyslash's We. The Revolution is a unique in both gameplay concept and art-style, as it puts players in control of a Tribunal Judge during the French Revolution. Players will need to pass sentences, play the politics, and do everything in their power not to be the next one brought to the guillotine. The game […]

Team 17's My Time at Portia is a cute, relaxing crafting game where players restore the neglected family workshop and fulfill commissions, grow crops, raise animals, and befriend the inhabitants of the post-apocalyptic town called Portia. Players need to gather, mine, and craft their way to being the top workshop in town, and they may just […]

Going into The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel II, I'd never played the original game. So my background information on the title was limited to the official game description and what I could piece together from the opening sequence of the game's story. Which is probably not the best way to pick up a […]

I was in the middle of writing up my late review of Devil May Cry on the Switch when the code for Devil May Cry 2 hit as well. So I've decided to bundle them both into the same review to save us all some time. This is far from the first time I've played either game, […]

RemiLore: Lost Girl in the Lands of Lore is the kind of anime game that has a very specific fanbase in mind. And I am not that fanbase. So this was a bit of a mis-match between game and reviewer, but I'll try to do my best regardless. The game is a hack-and-slash rogue-like adventure […]

Crystar is a game about a young girl who travels to purgatory and purifies the torments of restless souls by crying about it. The game even has a "cry to gain more power" mechanic. The game is described by Spike Chunsoft and developer FuRyu as "driven by catharsis," which is why Rei gains strength from […]

Like most officially licensed game adaptations, Attack on Titan Tactics relies heavily on its leveraged IP. A licensed game like Tactics lives and dies off of its authenticity to the original. Luckily, DeNA and Crunchyroll Games are also partnered with Kodansha and Funimation who publish the manga and anime respectively. The game also features the original Japanese […]

There's a tempering of expectation of sorts when it comes to Gearbox and 2K Games' Borderlands franchise that you know what you're getting from the start and for many, that's enough, but let's not pretend this title will ever reinvent the wheel when it comes to first-person shooters. The humor of the game is sort […]

The moment I saw we were finally getting Super Mario Maker 2, the ideas of how to punish my friends immediately swirled through my head, as it did with many others. Granted, there are many people who played the original on the Wii U and got to live out their level-builder fantasies. Or those who […]

Earlier this year, Big Fish Games announced they would be doing a Toy Story mobile game in time for the next film called Toy Story Drop! A few weeks ago, that game finally came out and we received a review code for it on iOS to try out. The game itself is pretty simple to […]

It's hard to improve upon the best Resident Evil game for a Nintendo console, but Capcom did find a way with the expected HD remastered version of Resident Evil 4. Originally released in 2005, Resident Evil 4 revolutionized the franchise opting for a more action-oriented affair with sequences that require the player to perform a […]

It's hard to believe the original remake of Capcom's Resident Evil started on the Nintendo Gamecube and now its superior HD version has made its way to the Switch. The 2002 remake was part of an exclusivity deal Capcom made with Nintendo that saw the game mostly reworked. The puzzles remained the same, but the […]

Resident Evil Zero, originally released in 2002 for the Nintendo GameCube, returns for their latest console, the Switch and plays exactly the same. Given the 17 years since the original release, Nintendo fans, like the Sony, PC and Microsoft crowd, are finally seeing the HD remake on the hybrid console. One of the simultaneous re-releases […]

Dauntless's rocky launch aside, there's a whole lot of great game for players to sink their teeth into now that it's been fully launched. And the rocky start really just goes to show how difficult a simultaneous cross-play launch across all available platforms can truly be. Sure, the matchmaking could be faster and the server […]
