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.

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.

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…

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.

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.

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.

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.

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).

Invincible VS is good. It’s a big game even if it feels small at times. Good production does it some nice favors and with DLC already lined up, hopefully Quarter Up and Skybound Games can take notes from the community, deliver some surprises, and forge some longevity

Over the years, I’ve caught glimpses of these small, round creatures with gentle eyes and every time I’ve thought to myself, “That’s a Moomin. I don’t know how I know this, but I do.” I wasn’t aware of the fact they had been around since the 1940’s. Or that were created as a form of escapism and fear during World War 2 for Finnish author and painter, Tove Jansson. While playing Moomintroll: Winter’s Warmth, I felt like it was finally time to learn about the history and lore behind the Moomin’s.
