Are you the sort of person who easily gets anxious playing videogames? Do you hate to keep tabs on a lot of moving parts at all times while doing so? If your answer to both of these questions is yes, then Polish dev 11 bit Studio’s Frostpunk might have a thing or two to tell…
It’s a safe bet that if you own a mobile device, you probably played a racing game on it. With touch controls, keeping a tiny car on the road is a tough thing to pull off while gripping a portable device, but Brazilian developer Aquiris managed to make an extremely fun game out of that…
If videogames could be graded simply based on a list of features, Far Cry 5 would easily be one of the best games out there. As with its predecessors, its map is pretty big, there’s a ton of things to do and the story is as goofy as ever, but unfortunately, none of these things…
The sequel to Pillars of Eternity starts out as about as epic as a sequel can: it’s the aftermath of the events of the previous game, and the player character is on the brink of death after their ship got attacked at sea by the demonic god who you supposedly offed. Having had a little…
There are few games out there that manage to pay homage to classic retro titles without going out of their way to be too much like their inspiration. The Swords of Ditto is quite the opposite. It lovingly pays respect to Zelda, most especially A Link to the Past, but it manages to do so while…
It’s not easy being a god, and apparently making a game about being one isn’t either. Over the years, the God of War franchise, which started out as one of the landmark franchises for Sony’s consoles and portables, eventually turned stale. After its last entry, 2012’s God of War: Ascension, the franchise went into slumber,…
Kingdom Come: Deliverance is a game that showed lots of promise right from the very first time I checked it out at E3 2016. Even at that point in time, where developer Warhorse Studios was only had a few concept renders to visually show it off, it was clear that Deliverance was a deeply ambitious…
… and no, there’s nothing wrong with the Earth’s gravitational pull. Nostalgia has been “in” for a long while now, and it’s no news that games, especially the indie kind, have been shamelessly dipping their toes into it. Be it old movies, books, or even games themselves, the subject of recalling the rose-colored memories of…
Iconoclasts sure lives up to its name. As a Metroid/Castlevania Symphony of the Night-inspired game, it’s totally serviceable: you explore a large grid-based map and use new equipment to help unlock new paths that take you further into the world. But it’s the way that it approaches your development that really sets it apart from…
The Station is an excellent game to play through in one sitting and enjoy as a continuous cohesive experience.
