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

by Alex Quevedo | Epic Games Store Nintendo Switch Nintendo Switch 2 PlayStation 4 PlayStation 5 Reviews Steam Xbox Series X | 0 Comments | 21 May 2026

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

by Kayla Merritt | Nintendo Switch 2 PC PlayStation 5 Reviews Xbox Series X | 0 Comments | 21 May 2026

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

by Alex Quevedo | Nintendo Switch PC PlayStation 5 Reviews Xbox Series X | 0 Comments | 21 May 2026

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

by Chris Penwell | Nintendo Switch PC PlayStation 5 Reviews | 0 Comments | 21 May 2026

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.

REVIEW – “Coffee Talk Tokyo” changed continents, but it’s still as cozy and familiar as your favorite neighborhood cafe

by Brandon Perkins | Nintendo Switch PC PlayStation 5 Reviews Xbox Series X | 0 Comments | 20 May 2026

I don’t really care for coffee. Sorry, I’ve tried. I really have. I can’t stand the taste, nor the texture. I’ve tried it black, I’ve tried it iced, I’ve tried lattes, cappuccinos, mochas, floats, and every other possible way coffee can be consumed… and it just doesn’t do it for me. If I need a caffeine hit, it’s gotta be a soda for me. But you know what I do like? Japan.

REVIEW – Despite sizable flaws, “STARBITES” enthralls with great combat and characters in a ruined, desperate world

by David Rodriguez | Nintendo Switch PC PlayStation 5 Reviews Steam Xbox Series X | 0 Comments | 18 May 2026

STARBITES has a lot going for it. The things that bothered me with this game were not fundamental enough to keep me from playing to the very end, and that makes for an overall, convincing win. It has ample charisma, a good message, and plenty of heart.

REVIEW – “Forza Horizon 6” is a game-changer for accessible gaming

by Filippo Dinolfo | PC Reviews Steam Xbox Series X | 0 Comments | 14 May 2026

This is a review that I wasn’t actually expecting to write. I mentioned in passing to our editor that I was interested in Forza Horizon 6, but sort of forgot about it amid a whole lot of other unrelated stuff in my life. Well, a couple of weeks back, I got a DM with a Steam code, and here we are now.

REVIEW – “Clockwork Ambrosia” is an absolute blast!

by Michael Fertitta | PC Reviews Steam | 0 Comments | 12 May 2026

Clockwork Ambrosia is a game that takes that concept and goes in a fascinating, different direction, focusing instead on letting the player modify their weapons. To put it simply, I absolutely enjoyed my time with this game and its weapon mod mechanics.

REVIEW – “Directive 8020” goes above and beyond before crashing on impact

by Chris Penwell | PC PlayStation 5 Reviews Xbox Series X | 0 Comments | 11 May 2026

Directive 8020 is worth the journey, despite a few rough detours. The performances are superb, and most of the writing is effective. However, there are way too many stealth sections.

REVIEW – “Mixtape” is an instant classic that truly delivers only the hits

by Danreb Victorio | Nintendo Switch 2 PC PlayStation 5 Reviews Xbox Series X | 0 Comments | 07 May 2026

When I first got my hands on a demo of Mixtape at Summer Game Fest last year, I knew it was going to be special. I knew it as soon as I put on the headphones and started vibing to…

REVIEW – “inKONBINI: One Store. Many Stories” is so cozy, it might be too cozy

by Danreb Victorio | PC PlayStation 5 Reviews Xbox Series X | 0 Comments | 06 May 2026

inKONBINI: One Store. Many Stories is a game that had my attention as soon as I laid my eyes on it. I vividly remember the game at the corner of the room at Day of the Devs: San Francisco Edition in 2025 with a line that would never end, but I was fine with not playing it because it just wasn’t the right atmosphere for it. Luckily for me, it was featured at the first Steam Next Fest this year, and I loved what I played in the demo, despite it toying with my anxiety.

REVIEW – Cozy-punk narrative sim “Wax Heads” perfectly encapsulates an incredibly important relationship between community and music

by David Rodriguez | Nintendo Switch PC PlayStation 5 Reviews Steam Xbox Series X | 0 Comments | 05 May 2026

Wax Heads still understood me on a level that another game really hasn’t in the 30 years I’ve been playing them. I laughed (a lot), I cried (a bit), I smiled (endlessly).
