Before I bought Juicy Realm, I should have taken into consideration the game’s “casual” tag. I enjoy similar games like Enter the Gungeon and The Binding of Isaac, but Juicy Realm was just too shallow for my liking. I played through three runs, encountered the…

  There was no tutorial, no training. The open beta for Ancestors Legacy loaded and I found myself looking at a rag-tag group of sling-shot weilding “slingers” and a small, hastily-built cabin. My two teammates had similar starting layouts, one on either side of me,…

They Are Billions is a single-player game that’s all about survival. Yes it’s a game about the zombie apocalypse (go ahead and roll your eyes, I’ll allow it), but it’s challenging and fun enough to be worthy of your time. Trust me. I sunk four hours…

What happens when George Washington, Napoleon Bonaparte, a Cardinal, and a handful of other 18th Century fancypants have dinner together? No really, this isn’t a lead-in to a joke. It’s a question that upcoming, episodic murder mystery game, The Council, will answer. Developed by French independent…

My team of four warriors stormed off in separate directions. The forested cliffs of the floating island rose ahead of us in jagged formations. Goats meandered in a nearby meadow. I could never figure out how the goats ended up on these floating islands, but…

I never thought I’d be any good at wingsuit flying. First, it would require me to climb a mountain, or jump out of a plane, two things that I don’t plan on doing anytime soon, if at all. Second, I’m certain that as soon as…

A few week ago, closer to Solstice Chronicles: MIA’s July 27 release date, I blasted my way through the first few story mode levels before the game’s unforgiving difficulty level strained the fun out of the game. At that time, I was more than okay…

I enjoy “walking simulator” games. The Vanishing of Ethan Carter was one of my favorite games the year it came out, and while I found Firewatch a disappointment, that was primarily due to the story, not the actual gameplay. So when I saw that a…
