The Church in the Darkness Review

I’m generally not a huge fan of stealth games because I find the gameplay too slow for my liking. But if a game promises to be short – like this one does at 1.5 hours per play through – I can deal with stealth mechanics, and even enjoy them from time to time. Playing through The Church in the Darkness has been a phenomenal experience, and despite some glaring issues, there is a lot to really like. The Church in…

Fire Emblem: Three Houses Review

Fire Emblem: Three Houses is a modern blend of blend of previous Fire Emblem games that is likely to please fans, old or new. For those who are not familiar with the Fire Emblem franchise, the games have gone from intensely combat-focused to a veritable romance sim. In Three Houses you play a professor at an academy for young knights, which provides the perfect setting to find the balance between the combat and social aspects of the game. While those seeking a pure fighting game (or purely social game) will have to make some compromise to get the most out of ...

Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3: The Black Order Review

It seems like Marvel is everywhere these days, and it makes sense when you think about it. With the explosive success of The Avengers movies and the MCU franchise pumping out successful films at an unprecedented rate, it is only logical for other media to follow suit. With the close of "The Infinity Saga", now is the perfect time to release Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3: The Black Order. It has been a decade since the release of Ultimate Alliance 2 (2009) and Marvel-Mania was just beginning (Iron Man 1 released in 2008). Since then, the Marvel universe has ...

Red Faction: Guerrilla Re-Mars-tered Review

When it was announced that Red Faction: Guerilla Re-Mars-tered was coming to Nintendo Switch, I was skeptical that it could be handled well, but was intrigued by having such an amazing open world to explore. When I finally got to take it for a spin, there were definite issues that I fully expected to encounter, but overall, I really enjoyed the experience! For more details on the gameplay and story, read our original Re-Mars-tered review here. Here is what we…

Super Mario Maker 2 Review

When Mario Maker originally launched on the Wii U, fans went wild for what ended up being one of the consoles best titles ever, not only because the game was so fantastic, but because it utilized the Wii U hand held controller so well. Without that controller, Nintendo was looking to strike gold for a second time with the launch of Super Mario Maker 2, but could it be as successful without that screened hand held controller? We took the…

Crash Team Racing: Nitro Fueled Review

When it comes to kart racing games, Mario Kart has been on top since the beginning, and while others have made valiant attempts at gaining ground and potentially taking over the franchise juggernaut, they always fall short in a few specific ways, creating a good, but not a great, racing experience. For once, the tables might have turned, as Crash Team Racing: Nitro Fueled (Crash Team Racing from here on out) is easily the best Crash Team Racing title ever released, and rivals Mario Kart 8 Deluxe in many ways! Let's dive in!

Cadence of Hyrule Review

Cadence of Hyrule: Crypt of the NecroDancer featuring The Legend of Zelda is one of the most unexpected games on the Nintendo Switch right now. If you read my first impressions of the game, you'll know that I've been enjoying it so far. But is Cadence of Hyrule worth a download for Zelda fans? Here is my review of Cadence of Hyrule for the Nintendo Switch.

Team Sonic Racing Review

For many decades now, the kart racing genre has been dominated by one franchise, and while others have put together valiant efforts, nothing has quite reached the quality of Mario Kart. And I think companies have begun to realize a standard kart racer just won’t cut it anymore, and SEGA took that philosophy and delivered with Sonic Team Racing, available on the PS4, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch. So what really makes this game different from all the rest? The…

Nintendo LABO Starter Kit + Blaster Review

Nintendo LABO has been a fairly successful franchise for Nintendo ever since it was announced and released in 2018. From toy houses to fishing equipment, and now even to VR, Nintendo has taken the LABO idea, thrown in a bit of quality cardboard, and created something that seems really dumb, but provides hours of enjoyment!

Yoshi’s Crafted World Review

There are few games in the video game marketplace that pack as much charm as Yoshi titles, and with each subsequent release, Nintendo pushes the boundaries just a little bit further. I thought they had hit the top when they launch Yoshi's Wooly World; how could that creativity and cuteness be topped! I know how: Yoshi's Crafted World, an all ages accessible title that will be enjoyed by everyone. But just because we think it could have universal appeal, doesn’t mean it will. Does Yoshi’s Crafted World hold up to the green dinosaurs high bar of expectations? ...
