KEMCO rpgs are always good. Some of them, in my opinion, are better than others but generally the company puts out good games. I especially like when they do games with retro 8/16 bit graphics. Archlion Saga for Nintendo Switch, out today, is KEMCO’s newest rpg with retro graphics. Is it a good game too? Archlion Saga is an rpg that harkens back to the NES/SNES rpgs. The graphics are in that style and the battle system is very similar…

Read MoreMad Bullets
In “Light gun” games, you control the gun (or target) that you move to shoot at enemies and not your character. In the past, games like this came with physical prop guns that you shoot at the screen with. Now that motion controls are here, you can just move the joycon around to shoot at enemies. Mad Bullets is a “light gun” game for the Nintendo Switch. Is it a fun one though? Mad Bullets is unplayable. At least, that…

Every game has its “year” or at least it feels like it. I think Dragon Quest has had more than one year, surely, but this year is without a doubt feeling like Dragon Quest’s year. Why is that?
