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…

Game Freak, known primarily (rightfully so) as developers of the beloved Pokemon series, steps out and creates a new RPG game unlike anything else. Using card based mechanics unlike what we’ve ever seen before with a splash of board game mixed in created an RPG that doesn’t require constant grinding of low level monsters to beat. Truly something unique in the world of wash, rinse, repeat of game development but is unique always good?   The game is set in…

Nintendo had an Indie World Showcase video today. Check it out below and then please come back here for some thoughts on the Showcase! Wow! That was a really good Indie World Showcase. A lot of cool games were shown and some of them are coming out today! Spiritfarer and A Short Hike especially grabbed my attention and I will be getting those for my Switch later today for sure. I was also impressed by Hades, Hypnospace Outlaw (demo later…

I liked the first Oceanhorn a lot. If you haven’t played the game, its available on the Nintendo Switch eshop right now. Zelda fans will especially enjoy it. And soon, we’ll be getting another Oceanhorn! Let’s talk about that game a little. The first Oceanhorn was like a mix between Wind Waker and a Link to the Past. The game had an overhead view, but three dimensional. And it was a lot of fun. Very soon we’ll be getting another…

Animal Crossing has been used for a number of unique marketing and philanthropic endevours over the last few months, and now Hellmann's Canada is getting in on the fun. Fans will be able to bring Rotten Turnips to Hellmann's island, and Hellmann's will then provide meals to Second Harvest Canada based on the number of rotten turnips they receive. Check out the tweet from Hellmann's below:

I’m back! At least for now. And I want to finally talk about Bloodstained Curse of the Moon 2. I haven’t been playing it much lately but I really love this game. Let’s talk about Bloodstained: Curse of the Moon 2 for the Nintendo Switch! I miss Castlevania. I wouldn’t say Castlevania is one of my top ten favorite games of all time, theres a lot of games I love, but it is somewhere on the list of games I…

While there are all sorts of nifty benchmarking tools out there for PCs, it feels like for years that the common refrain when testing a new PC build was to see how it ran Crysis.  It’s a game that, at its best, is one to show off to your friends.  With gorgeous landscapes and  superhuman abilities for the player, it’s a game that’s supposed to look good.  It’s an old game though. It originally came out the same year as…

Thanks to our friends at The LEGO Group, we have been looking and and reviewing a number of fantastic LEGO Super Mario products. You can read our review of the Starter Kit here! While my kids really enjoyed putting the starter set together, it became quite obvious that more sets were going to be purchased, as the kids really wanted to expand their course building options. Let's take a look at LEGO Super Mario - Mario's House and Yoshi Expansion!
