It goes without saying that I enjoy BioWare’s games. True that I’ve not played each and every game the studio has offered since its inception, but I can say that I love their brand of gaming. Deeply narrative, infused with choice, and set in imaginative worlds, BioWare has hit some lasting homeruns with the likes…

Super Mario RPG is Back, And That’s Kinda Crazy
Well, it’s finally happened. This past Friday something happened that, for a very long time, many of us old timer Nintendo fans thought never would. A full and true remake for Super Mario RPG was released! After over twenty years of Nintendo almost compeletly ignoring its existence, not only can we enjoy the adventure once…
Scariest Enemies: Humanoid Monstrosities
Video games are filled to the brim with weird and creepy monsters, but if I had to narrow it down, humanoid creatures are probably my least favorite foe. It could be the inherent creepiness of the uncanny valley, or it could just be that I don’t like facing off against something that either used to…
Klonoa Phantasy Reverie Series: Demo Review
Of the dwindling number of interesting retro games that I have still yet to play, the Klonoa games are one such series that sit relatively high on my to-do list. While I don’t know much about these games, these cute 2D platformers just look like something I’d have a lot of fun with, and so…
Shutter Nyan: Demo Review
Shutter Nyan is a puzzle-platformer about a cat with a camera who wants to cheer up its owner. The game has a simple, mostly black and white artstyle with splashes of color, namely when it comes to the objects that you can photograph. Certain objects can be photographed and then duplicated anywhere you want in…
Pompom: The Great Space Rescue: Demo Review
Pompom: The Great Space Rescue follows the story of a hamster named Pompom who must rescue his human friend Hoshi after he was kidnapped by pirate cats. Based on the screenshots, I expected the game to be akin to Super Mario World if Mario was replaced by a hamster. But when I started the demo,…
Lunistice: Demo Review
Lunistice is yet another one of those countless modern platformers that were made with our nostalgia in mind. But instead of mimicking the graphical style of old SNES titles, this game is inspired by the 32-bit graphics of PS1 and Sega Saturn. Lunistice stars the adorable tanuki, Hana, who can run and double jump through…
Unbound: Worlds Apart: Demo Review
Unbound: Worlds Apart is a platformer with lovely, hand-drawn graphics and a unique concept. You see, you must use portals to navigate your environment and solve puzzles. The demo showcases three of these, but the game’s description boasts ten in total.
Paper Mario: TTYD is Coming To Switch!
So, this is hardly breaking news by now, but I wanted to talk about it all the same. So yeah, Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door is coming to Switch! At last, Switch players will have a good game in the series to enjoy (lol)!
The Company Man: Demo Review
On the surface, The Company Man might seem like your average 2D platformer, until you consider the game’s rather unique theme: office work. You see, you play as a guy named Jim, who was just hired at the Good Water Company. Although it’s only his first day, Jim’s a rather ambitious fellow indeed, as he’s…
