Puzzle

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. I hadn’t played these games in years, but then I saw a video that showed a collection called 8-Bit Adventure Anthology Vol. 1 that included all of them. I had to have it! So…

A comic-styled indie puzzle game, Valiant Hearts: The Great War follows four characters who find themselves caught up in the middle of the First World War.

Initially released in 2014, the Nintendo Switch port hit the shelves last November. Steel your nerves and get ready for all of the feels, as Valiant Hearts promises to be one seriously emotional experience!

Tetris 99, a free-to-play game for the Nintendo Switch, came to the eshop yesterday. The game pits you in a game of Tetris against 99 other people. It is an online, multiplayer only game. As far as I can tell, there are no extra things to buy. Tetris…

Sphinx and the Cursed Mummy is a game heavily inspired by Egyptian lore, from its story to its setting and characters. Mythology is a good source for video games, though it doesn't always result in a good game. Is Sphinx and the Cursed Mummy good, OK, or just plain bad?

I did a preview of Evoland Legendary Edition last week. This week, I want to give you my final opinion on these games. Evoland Legendary Edition, as noted in the preview, is two games: Evoland 1 and 2, collected into one package. My review will look at both games individually and then come to a conclusion about the whole package. Is Evoland Legendary Edition worth downloading from the Nintendo Switch eshop? Evoland 1 While Evoland 1’s story is pretty simple…

Dreams is a Playstation 4 exclusive game that will let you create your own video game (and other stuff), share it, and play other people’s creations. If you played LittleBigPlanet, you’ll have an idea of what Dreams is but only know the half of it. The LittleBigPlanet series is great. I love it. Dreams is not out yet, but I can already tell you its bigger and better than LittleBigPlanet. How? I got to play the recent Dreams beta on…

I read Murder on the Orient Express by Agatha Christie for the first time last year and saw the new movie. I loved the book, really liked the movie, and I bring this all up because The Raven Remastered is heavly inspired by Murder on the Orient Express and Christie in general! Is that good thing? Is this a good game? Here is my review of The Raven Remastered for the Nintendo Switch! The Raven Remastered borrows a lot from…

The goal of the game is to see how high you can stack cakes. With each level, the stack of cakes gets…
