What do you get when you throw a bard into an action/platformer on the Nintendo Switch? Let’s find out in my review for The Bard’s Gold! The Bard’s Gold is an action/platformer with some rpg elements. There isn’t much of a story; Bard’s Gold focuses on its gameplay. Three difficulty settings are provided: Normal, Retro Mode, and Rogue-Lite. Normal is probably the easiest setting but does come with some drawbacks. In normal mode, the player is only given three lives…

Gameloft has made a bold step bringing a traditionally iOS franchise over to the Nintendo Switch, and while Modern Combat Blackout is a port of a mobile title - which is both visually and controlably noticeable - there is still something fun and engaging about the game that kept me coming back for more. Is the most visually appealing game? Is this the best first person shooter on Nintendo Switch? The answer to both these questions is a resounding no, but I still liked it! Let's dive in!

Back in the NES days, I wasn’t into rpgs. I played a lot of platformers and action games. And occasionally, I played 8-bit adventure games too. There are three adventure games that I still think about after all these years: Deja Vu, The Uninvited, and Shadowgate.

Many critics had been sceptical that Apex Legends was just another lazy addition to an already overcrowded battle royale realm. But with growing numbers of…

I had heard about Undertale for awhile but I had never played the game until it came to Nintendo Switch. I liked the game and its oddball humor. So when a new game from the same developer was announced I was interested. Of course, making the first chapter free to download and play made me want the game even more. Deltarune is the name of the game and I checked it out. Is it as good as Undertale? I haven’t…

I took a look at Anodyne earlier in the week and liked it. Now its time to review the game. Is Anodyne an adventure worth taking or should you skip this one? Anodyne is an action/adventure rpg that will remind you of the Legend of Zelda and its humor will remind you of Earthbound. However, Anodyne does have its own unique (dark) story, characters, enemies, and areas to explore. Anodyne’s retro style is very charming and its gameplay is solid.…

According to the most recent Apple keynote, the iPhone XS isn’t just a premium smartphone. It’s also a high-end gaming console — one that earned Todd Howard’s seal of approval. Its 2.7-million-pixel display, expansive depth of field, and stereo widening come together representing a new era of mobile gaming. Even though the XS offers the most immersive gaming environments possible, there’s always room for improvement. If you’re a big gamer, check out this list of accessories guaranteed to turn your…

Play your PS4 on  a TV, and you get to enjoy your games on a large screen format. The large dimensions of a TV offer several benefits, but it also introduces slow response times and high input lags. Competitive PS4 players and gamers who want smooth transitions from button press to action may want to invest in a gaming monitor instead. Here’s the five best gaming monitors for Playstation 4 in 2019. ASUS VA327H Don’t go over 32 inches when…

Not everyone wants to play a big AAA game at all times of the day, and the gaming industry has done a great job of providing games that take way less time, are incredibly portable, and the like. It’s why so many gamers have purchased PlayStation Vita’s, Nintendo 3DS units, and of course, the Nintendo Switch. And with almost everyone owning a mobile phone at this point, gaming is always at your fingertips, in the best possible way. Some people…
