I don’t often dive into video game reviews anymore since GamesReviews got deep into the board game space, but every once in a while, a game crosses my desk that I just really want to play. Let’s School was that kind of game. Most interestingly, I was curious to see how this would compare to the popular Two Point Campus, an already heavily established game and franchise on console, with a similar theme. Thankfully, Let’s School treks out on its…

It’s Steam Sale time, and that means those of us with powerful PCs are picking out indie games that will barely tax them. Happy holidays everyone! And yet the season has me thinking once more about the state of the gaming industry – and the perks of being a patient gamer. I must own over 1,500 games, easy. I’m hoping one of these days I’ll finally play one or two of them. But within that backlog sits every genre and…

Keplerth crash-lands on your PC with an intriguing premise: survive and thrive on a hostile alien world. Waking up in a hibernation pod, you’re stripped bare, with nothing but your wits and the untamed wilderness surrounding you. This 2D sandbox RPG throws you headfirst into a world brimming with possibilities, but be warned, the journey is as unforgiving as the terrain. Keplerth’s strength lies in its open-ended gameplay. You carve your own path in this procedurally generated world. Will you…

Taking on the mantle of Robin Hood in a video game isn’t new, but Robin Hood – Sherwood Builders throws a fresh curveball by blending action-adventure RPG elements with a hefty dose of base building and survival. Here’s a deep dive into my experience playing it on PC: Living the Bandit Life: The game definitely captures the essence of Robin Hood’s legend. You’ll rob the rich (Sheriff’s patrols and tax collectors) to help the poor (villagers who desperately need food…

I loved Beyond Good and Evil and I’m glad the original is getting a decent modern re-release. It comes with a new mission tied to the long-promised sequel, and I’m wondering at this point what that could possibly mean. The original game was not a commercial success. Quite famously so. It sold less than 300,000 copies in the US, and it took price cuts of up to 80 percent to get there. Quick searching shows official mention of a sequel…

The original Resident Evil has been rated for a release on Steam, and it’s the most ridiculous thing ever that it isn’t already a thing. Think about it. You have a giant library of games from the last 30 years just sitting there. The average PC gamer has it open by default. They want games to buy, and the rights holders… just do nothing? Yes, the REmake is available for purchase. But that’s not enough. Steam should have all the…

Starfield is just okay. That’s the biggest sin a game can make in today’s reaction-led world. But those reactions are starting to wear a little bit thin. Reviews on Steam are negative again after an update added some paid mods to the game. Skyrim and Fallout 4 both have these mods, and they’re completely optional. And yet it’s another case of Starfield living rent free in some people’s heads. I should clarify that I found much of the critique around…

Visions of Mana is the upcoming return of the Mana series by Square Enix. Today a launch date trailer was released for the game. Check it out along with our thoughts on the game. Visions of Mana will be coming out on August 29th, 2024. The game is coming to PS4, PS5, Xbox Series S/X, and PC. It looks like an absolutely incredible game. I love the graphics, which looks slightly cel-shaded especially with the characters. The action combat looks…

The Summer Game Fest has come and gone to mark the semi-official start of the season’s Not-E3 celebrations. And yet this year, more than ever, we can see that it’s not the E3 replacement perhaps everybody wants it to be. That should be okay. That is to say, there a place for a smaller “hyped” event that can explore a variety of smaller games alongside a few bigger announcements. And while that might not seem like a controversial opinion, for…

Project 13 on Xbox One and Series X/S is an unconventional experience that blends psychological horror with walking simulator elements. Here’s a more detailed look at what the game offers: A Descent into Unease: Endless Corridors: The entire game takes place within a single, sterile psychiatric ward corridor. This monotonous setting is broken only by subtle changes in lighting, decoration, or even the occasional ominous message scrawled on the wall. As you progress, a sense of unease builds with each…
