REVIEW — “SpinEra” brings Civilization to the casino

Spinera is a combination of a slot machine game and Civilization. and scratches an itch Civ fans didn’t know they still had. It starts quickly, isn’t overwhelming at first, and ramps up gameplay in a measured way.

HANDS-ON – “Kidbash: Super Legend” knows its influences and iterates on them quite well with roguelite action

Kidbash: Super Legends is a fun time. With missions, weapon variants and upgrades, stat boosts, and other stuff planned for the full game, it’s shaping up to be a scrappy little platformer for the ’90s kid, made to be repeatable at its core.

REVIEW – The kids are not ready for “Nickelodeon Extreme Tennis: Next!”

Nickelodeon Extreme Tennis: Next! brings the Nicktoons we know and love from Avatar: The Last Airbender’s Aang to the titular CatDog duo. While some of the graphics can be impressive, it is quite obvious that this is a port of the mobile game. Don’t expect anything as lavish or impressive as the Mario Tennis series with this one, despite its obvious inspiration.

REVIEW – No complaints: “Mina the Hollower” exceeds all expectations

Mina the Hollower is a game I’ve been anticipating ever since it was first premiered over four years ago. Even when Yacht Club Games went dark for a couple of years, I didn’t give up hope. These were the guys behind Shovel Knight, after all, and that was basically the perfect game–a generation-defining title, I’d even say.

GUT REACTIONS – “He looks like he’s been awake for 96 hours straight!”: Dragon Quest Day 40th Anniversary announcements

Dragon Quest XII was announced on May 27th, 2026 during the Dragon Quest 40th anniversary stream. Wait, that’s not right. Dragon Quest XII was announced on May 27th 2021, during the Dragon Quest 35th anniversary stream. But today is May…

PREVIEW – “Denshattack!” has quickly become one of my most anticipated games

Take a cool, vibrant anime art style, Tony Hawk Pro Skater style tricks, and the energy of Sonic Unleashed, and you have Denshattack, a game I would have dreamed of as a teenager.

REVIEW – “R-Type Dimensions III” is unapologetically merciless in its desire to kill you

After finishing the R-Type Delta HD Boosted review, I was asked if I had any interest in checking out R-Type Dimensions III. This is most certainly something I was interested in looking at, since it is a remake of what…

FEATURE – I confessed my sins to priests for “The Blood of Dawnwalker” at MCM Comic Con 2026

Bandai Namco gets creative with its marketing for The Blood of Dawnwalker. So creative I went into a confessional booth for a video game.

REVIEW – “Bluey’s Quest for The Gold Pen” provides a fun adventure to get gold back into Bluey’s drawings

I’m on the verge of being a first-time dad, so what’s the best way to get me prepped for that new stage of life? Bluey! In a video game! Surely, nothing else will be needed as I’m sure it will be easy. Bluey’s Quest for The Gold Pen will prepare me as much as possible.

REVIEW – “Table Flip Simulator” gives you that secret desire to cause chaos at work

Falling Down is a 1993 film starring Michael Douglas. He’s an ordinary man stuck in LA traffic who realizes he’s done dealing with taking L’s. He goes on a rampage through the city to the oppressive world. That’s essentially Table Flip Simulator.

REVIEW – We’re not joking: “Bubsy 4D” is wonderful

Bubsy 4D is the cat’s meow and a nearly purr-fect reintroduction for the unfairly maligned orange bobcat. The game takes what’s worked about Bubsy as a character, like his sense of humor and the world he lives in, and puts him in a stellar 3D platformer that deserves to be talked about in the same conversation as other classics in the genre. While the game is short and suffers from occasional camera issues, Bubsy 4D does what the developers set out to do wonderfully.

REVIEW – “Rugrats: Retro Rewind Collection” proves some games should be left in the past

From the depths of the 90s and early 2000s are several Rugrats games that hold a special place in the hearts of many Nickelodeon fans. Sometimes, games of that era can age well, but the titles in the Rugrats Retro Rewind Collection have spoiled like Tommy’s leftover milk bottle. You may get a kick out of some of the gameplay moments, but it may be best to leave the babies’ adventures in the past.
