Penny dies. Game Over. Well, ok, not exactly. Penny dies, becomes a ghost, runs into Death and then becomes Death. Wait, what?! Welcome to the delightfully odd world of Flipping Death, which I got to play early thanks to Zoink! Games. These are the same people who brought us Stick It To the Man. My review of Flipping Death isn’t ready yet but I thought today, the day of the game’s release on the Switch, would be an excellent day…

Have you ever wanted to break into your neighbor’s house? If you are saying yes, then what the heck is wrong with you?! Also: boy do I have a game for you. And even if you said no, then thats ok.

So your neighbor may have committed a crime. Possibly a murder. You see him doing something fishy in his house. And so you call the cops right? Wrong! Instead of calling the cops like any sane person, you decide that you must sneak into your neighbor’s house and find out what exactly he was doing. Crazy right? Its also the premise for a brand new Nintendo Switch game called Hello Neighbor. Its coming out tomorrow, but I got an early…

When I first heard Cosmic Star Heroine was coming to the Nintendo Switch, I had no idea what it was. Then, I saw a trailer for the game. Right away, I knew I had to play this game! I loved what I saw of the graphics and the Chrono Trigger like battle system. And thanks to Limited Run Games, I got a review code and I’m getting to play the game early. What do I think Cosmic Star Heroine so…

Thanks to a freak accident, a chicken suddenly doesn’t lay eggs anymore…he lays bombs! Bomb Chicken for the Nintendo Switch is an odd game. I wrote about it in a preview. And now my review is done and we can finally find out: which came first the bomb or the chicken? Wait. No. We’ll find out whether or not I recommend this game! There isn’t much of a story to Bomb Chicken but that shouldn’t be a surprise: this game…

After all these years, Galaga is still a popular game. People want to play Galaga. People even want to play Galaga clones. The space shooter genre is still fun and addictive. Yes, these are pick and play games. These are the types of games that you play for a little bit, stop, go play something else, and then come back to them again later. Galaga and its clones (when done right) are short fun. Enter Super Destronaut DX for the…

Let me tell you the story about a chicken who can lay bombs instead of eggs. This chicken is crazy. It blows up enemies, walls, uses bombs to reach higher places, and solve puzzles. The story is called Bomb Chicken. In fact, its the story of a brand new indie game that just came out today. I received a review code for the game and I’ve been playing it. Let me tell you a bit more about this bombtastic game.…

I love Chrono Trigger. For a long time, it was my all-time favorite rpg (its still up there). And so whenever a new game comes out that even looks a little bit like Chrono Trigger, well, I’m interested. I had never heard of Cosmic Star Heroine till recently. This game is coming to the Nintendo Switch next month! It looks a bit like Chrono Trigger too. We have the release date and my thoughts on the game below. Cosmic Star…

You have died. You wake up as a skeleton living in a wardrobe in your old apartment. And you find out that its moving day. Unfortunately, you got separated from your wardrobe and need to get back into it so that you get moved too. Sounds simple right? Its a bit more complicated then you might think. To get back to the wardrobe, you’ll have to find items, combine items, use items on things, talk to people and things, and…
