Papetura is a unique puzzle game that looks as if it’s made entirely of paper. The demo opens to find the main character inside some sort of cocoon, where he proceeds to hide in fear when a shadowy figure appears at the entrance. While this game, at first glance, is rather intriguing, the demo does…

Pikmin 4 and the Art of Dandori
Growing up, the original Pikmin was an absolute must-have for me and one of the driving factors behind my strong need to get a brand new GameCube as soon as I could save up the necessary allowance. The ability to command an army of ant-sized Pikmin to do my bidding just seemed too unique to…
Imp of the Sun: Demo Review
Imp of the Sun is a Metroidvania that takes place in a world inspired by Peru. You play as a fiery imp named Nin whose goal is to defeat the Four Keepers and end the Eternal Eclipse. We begin the demo high up in the mountains with the eclipse in clear view behind us. I…
Demon’s Tilt: Finally a Proper Pinball Simulator
Okay, so I’m actually really late to the party on this one. Demon’s Tilt came out all the way back in 2018, and I only just recently found out about it. I’m a little disappointed that it took this long for it to get on my radar, but hey that just means I get to…
Security Breach’s Ruin DLC is Much Better, and Scarier, Than the Original
The long-awaited Ruin DLC for Five Nights at Freddy’s: Security Breach came out just last week, in which we play as a whole new character, Cassie, who must rescue her friend Gregory from the ruins of the now-abandoned Freddy Fazbear’s Mega Pizzaplex. This free DLC is a lot more linear than the main game and…
Sonic Frontiers: Demo Review
After Sega started pumping out mediocre Sonic games, I eventually gave up on the blue hedgehog altogether. Having no intention of returning to the Sonic franchise unless they produced something that really stood out, I couldn’t help but take notice of Sonic’s first 3D adventure, Sonic Frontiers. Nevertheless, after buying multiple lackluster games in the…
Dredge: Demo Review
On the surface, Dredge seems like a relaxing fishing game where you’ve been recently hired as the new fisherman for the coastal town of Greater Marrow. But something is clearly amiss amongst these idyllic isles when you start to catch strange fish and uncover eerie mysteries, such as tales of a mayor who went insane…
Glyph: Demo Review
Glyph is a rather obscure indie game where you play as a scarab beetle. The demo covers three stages of increasingly sparse platforms, over which you can traverse by rolling like a ball, jumping up walls, and flying short distances. You can really pick up speed in this game and cross some mighty impressive distances,…
Yoshi’s Crafted World: Demo Review
Having never played Yoshi’s Wooly World, I was at least given a chance to play a small portion of the game’s successor, Yoshi’s Crafted World, thanks to a short demo available on the Switch. One of the biggest features that stand out with both games is the unique aesthetic. Where the former took place in…
Spiritfarer: A Poignant Game About Death…and Appreciating Life

Joined by her trusty cat Daffodil, Stella will be sailing about the ocean, looking for spirits and caring for them until they’re ready to…
