I’m definitely a fan of competitive games for our board game nights, but there are some in our group who prefer cooperative experiences over competitive ones. I’m OK with that as well, but the cooperative experience needs to be deep mechanically for me to really enjoy what we are doing. It’s why I don’t prefer games like Unlocked! As much, and games like, well, Tesseract so much more. This dice drafting, manipulation game is phenomenal, and a cooperative game I…

A while ago, Shatterpoint fans were treated to an (overly) expensive diorama pack that included a Darth Vader figure. People went nuts for that pack, and that Darth Vader character was really great to have on the table. With the recent releases for Star Wars Shatterpoint, there is now a more affordable Vader with his own Storm Troopers. Let’s take a look at this release and whether it’s right for you! Again, first and foremost, let’s talk about the sculpts.…

We are back with another small box, big game title from Allplay. Today we are taking a look at Mori, one of the more interesting trick tacking games that was recently released.

In Mori, players will have a deck of cards in their hand and…

Grandia HD came out on the Xbox Series recently. The game is a collection of Grandia 1 and 2. We checked out the first game in the collection a little and have some thoughts on it. I thought I had played Grandia on the PlayStation 1. As I checked it out on the Xbox Series though, I came to the conclusion that I had never played it. The game doesn’t seem familiar at all. So how am I liking it…

When it comes to phone reviews and GamesReviews, you know we focus on these devices as things for the common person, those wanting to play games, listen to some music, and watch some videos. We look at these not from a technical standpoint, but rather a useability stand point. It’s why, I believe, our phone reviews over the past few years have been so successful. This phone is definitely not for the common person, we need to state that off…

With file uploaders, the ‘one size fits all’ approach fails. This is because requirements range from image sharing to handling sensitive documents. So, understanding diverse needs makes choosing the best file uploader subjective. However, key features and user experience principles stand out in file uploaders. This is because they ensure a smoother, faster, and more secure upload for both developers and users. All in all, let’s discuss how to select the best file uploader for both developers and users.

Lunar is a pretty unique trick taking game and one that I had to play a few times before I really knew if I wanted to keep it around and play it long term. There is a lot of depth here, and while it is simplistic in how it works, the decision space in this game is huge, and veteran board game and card game players might have a logical leg up on the competition simply because they live and…

First-person shooters (FPSs) occupy a very important place in the video game market, and this is something that has been the reality since the very beginning of the genre establishment, i.e. since the end of the 1990s. Surely, if you haven’t played, you’ve at least heard of games like Doom or Quake. Those games, in the opinion of many experts, were considered the originators of first-person shooters, games that so to speak made the genre famous and helped lay the…
