Always on the lookout for good sales on digital games, easily the best deal I ever got was when I downloaded Subnautica for free, thanks to PlayStation’s whole “Play at Home” program. Having already seen Youtuber 8-BitRyan play the game online, I never really intended on playing Subnautica for myself, as awesome as it looked. …

Kingdom Hearts: Melody of Memories: Demo Review
Any long-time fan of Kingdom Hearts will know that the series has gotten rather difficult to follow over the years. And I’m not just talking about the overly complicated plot. The main, numbered games in the series started on the PS2, and it makes sense that the eventual sequel would find its way onto the…
Limbo: Does It Live Up to Its Successor?
In the past, I played an amazing indie horror game called Inside. Before this game blessed us with its eerie presence, Playdead released another game you may have heard of by the name of Limbo. Limbo seemed to be a big deal at the time, though after watching a brief playthrough of the first chunk…
Ty the Tasmanian Tiger: Another Platformer from a Bygone Era
There was something truly special about the platformers released during the late 90’s and early 2000’s. Banjo-Kazooie, Jak and Daxter, and Sly Cooper were just a few series that were absolutely spectacular, but which, unfortunately, didn’t really survive beyond that golden age of platforming goodness. Considering my love for these types of games, a friend…
Earthlock: Demo Review
As I peruse the demos currently available on the PlayStation Store, I am bombarded with a staggering number of similar looking RPGs. Typically a genre that consumes a whole lot of one’s time, RPGs are kind of a big commitment, and so it makes sense to check out the demo first in order to decide…
The Mooseman: Beautiful, Eerie, Yet Unsatisfying
Ever since I have begun buying digital games, I have found no shortage of interesting, artsy looking options. Beautiful they may be, but more often than not, these games prove why you shouldn’t judge something based on looks alone. The most recent example of this is The Mooseman, an extremely intriguing looking game that is…
Spelunky: Demo Review
Spelunky falls into a broad category of games that I have heard good things about, but have never actually played. Thanks to the trial version that I downloaded on the PS4, I finally had a chance to experience this game for myself. Though my initial impression was fairly neutral, I quickly grew to appreciate Spelunky…
Crystal Chronicles: Have I Been Playing All Wrong?
It feels like the GameCube era of games falls into an odd middle ground where they’re just old enough that getting your hands on them is hard, but they’re also too new to be included on Virtual Console or the Switch’s online service. So when I saw that the Final Fantasy: Crystal Chronicles HD remake…
Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle First Impressions
In hindsight, I’m not sure if I picked the best or worst time to play Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle (Switch, 2017). When I got it a few weeks ago, I knew that Mass Effect Legendary Edition was in the wings, and I was already headlong into my Mass Effect: Andromeda replay. As well, Neverwinter…
Cat Quest: Demo Review
G’day, folks, in recent times, I have taken to downloading free demos as a means to experience a greater variety of games without having to pay for something I may not end up liking. (Y’know, the very reason demos exist.) Being someone who adores animals, especially those of the feline variety, it was no wonder…
