Digging its way into Steam Early Access tomorrow is Hammerting, a dwarven mining sim from Warpzone Studios that combines colony management, base creation, mountain exploration and the story of a great war for the overworld. Balance will be key as you recruit more dwarves to assist your operations, all while stockpiling your mountain treasure hoard and complete tasks sent from your armies above - all while risking the perils below. While there is seemingly no cap on the market for sim games, it has become quite difficult to distinguish yourself among the ...

Having previously played Doraemon Story of Seasons on the Switch, it was wonderful to also be able to experience it on the PS4. I have thoroughly enjoyed our time in Natura, engaging with the various citizens, solving problems, and working on finding a way back to the present. Now we dive into the nitty gritty of this experience, and spoilers…it’s really good! When asking Bandai Namco for an opportunity to review Doraemon Story of Seasons, I had to pitch to…

Spiritfarer is a simulation game about…death. Its a game where you basically play a reaper who guides spirits to the great beyond. Sounds like a pretty dark game right? Actually, not so much. Let’s take a look at Spiritfarer for the Nintendo Switch! Spiritfarer is a game I’ve had my eye on for awhile. Ever since it was revealed, I thought it looked like a pretty neat game. Yesterday, during the Indie World Showcase (link), a new trailer was shown…

In Animal Crossing New Leaf, there was a place called the Dream Mansion (aka Dream Suite) where players could go to visit other  towns via the internet. The catch was that it was in a “dream” and so anything you did in the other player’s town didn’t count. Also the other player wasn’t really there. You were just getting to check out a copy of their town. The Dream Mansion was added to New Horizons in the latest update. Well,…

Railway Empire, originally released on PC, XB1 and PS4 in 2018, is a simulator and economic management game by German developer Gaming Minds Studios which allows you to build a railway tycoon from the ground up.

Will Railway Empire join the sparse ranks of successful ports or will it be yet another game that has to sacrifice too much, and in the wrong places, to make the transition? ...

Here is a look at the Pro controllers and the accessory. Wired Fight Pad Pro – Link The Wired Fight Pad Pro is Link themed, with the Ocarnia of Time Link shield in the top middle of the controller. Otherwise, this Fight Pad looks like a blue Gamecube controller. Thats not a…

Last month, Nintendo revealed Paper Mario: The Origami King to us. After that, well, they have been pretty silent about new things. Where is Nintendo? What are they up to? The following are my guesses on when we should expect news and what that news might be! Nintendo has been quiet lately (well expect for that Jump Rope game). Too quiet. What are they up to? When will we get (real) news next? Many people think that we’ll get news…

I love Animal Crossing New Horizons. I think its the best Animal Crossing game yet. You can check out my review of the game here. And yet…the holidays in this game suck so far. Let’s talk about them and what I hope to see in the future. In Animal Crossing City Folk and New Leaf, Bunny Day was a holiday where you dug up (or in the case of New Leaf: dug up, fished up, shot down, etc) easter eggs…
