A lot of cool looking games were revealed at this weeks Indie World Showcase. One of them was a called A Short Hike. It also came out this week. I bought it and downloaded it. Now I want to tell you about this wonderful little game. A Short Hike for Nintendo Switch is one of the cutest games you could download right now. It stars a penguin in a world of other animals. And she goes on a hike! In…

Usually we don’t talk about anything Netflix or tv related here on GamesReviewscom. We are all about games! As it happens though, High Score on Netflix is all about games too. Let us tell you about it and why you should be watching it. High Score is a documentary on Netflix about…video games! Surprise! I mean, really, what else did you think it would be about? So what makes High Score so interesting that we had to write about it?…

Undermine is the latest game in what’s starting to feel like a flood of roguelikes (or really, ‘roguelites’) hitting the market.  While it’s not pushing the boundaries of innovation, it’s a polished experience and one that stands out in an increasingly crowded genre. The cadre of miners that the player controls get a pickax and bombs.  The pickax can be swung or thrown and to avoid damage, you can jump.  Jumping is what provides the crucial invincibility frames in a…

Spiritfarer is a simulation game about…death. Its a game where you basically play a reaper who guides spirits to the great beyond. Sounds like a pretty dark game right? Actually, not so much. Let’s take a look at Spiritfarer for the Nintendo Switch! Spiritfarer is a game I’ve had my eye on for awhile. Ever since it was revealed, I thought it looked like a pretty neat game. Yesterday, during the Indie World Showcase (link), a new trailer was shown…

I liked the first Oceanhorn a lot. If you haven’t played the game, its available on the Nintendo Switch eshop right now. Zelda fans will especially enjoy it. And soon, we’ll be getting another Oceanhorn! Let’s talk about that game a little. The first Oceanhorn was like a mix between Wind Waker and a Link to the Past. The game had an overhead view, but three dimensional. And it was a lot of fun. Very soon we’ll be getting another…

With many computers, monitors, and obviously laptops coming with built in webcams today, it's not often that folks every look online for an actual, standalone webcam device. Unless you are streaming - in which case you are probably using an expensive alternative camera - buying a webcam online might be a bit foreign to you. It's not until you get one - or see a review of one, like ours here - that you realize how inadequate your built in webcam really is, and how much better your experience will be with an HD webcam doing 1080p. Did I tell you that this could ...

I’m back! At least for now. And I want to finally talk about Bloodstained Curse of the Moon 2. I haven’t been playing it much lately but I really love this game.

I wouldn’t say Castlevania is one of my top ten favorite games of all time, theres a lot of games I love, but it is somewhere on the list of games I…

While we have yet to try a Hisense TV ourselves - which we hope to rectify soon - went and hunted down some folks who are using these TVs, to get some of their insights.
