What do you get when you combine a turn-based rpg with a word puzzle game? You get Letter Quest Remastered of course. The game is currently available on the Nintendo Switch and its on sale for $2.99 till August 30th! I picked it up on sale and now have some thoughts on it. Should you attack monsters with your words? I like word puzzle games. That should be obvious if you ever read any of my Lightwood Games reviews. I’m…

Nintendo of America had a indie showcase video today. We have the video below and my thoughts on it. I thought todays Nindies Showcase video was ok. Overall, I wasn’t too impressed with most of the games. The two games that stuck out to me were Into the Breach (out today!) and Treasure Stack. I love tactical rpgs and puzzle games. I’m also interested in Hyper Light Drifter and Undertale. I’m not sure about many of the other games. Still,…

Nintendo UK had an Indie Highlight video today. You can check it out below and then please come back for my thoughts on this Indie Direct. The Nintendo Indie highlight video was not announced. It was a complete surprise. Also surprising was that three of the games shown in the video: Bad North, Prison Architect, and Morphies Law came out today! I thought the video was pretty impressive overall. Nintendo Switch is getting a ton more Indie games for the…

Traveler’s Tales always does a great job with the LEGO games. Soon there will be another game added to the franchise: Lego DC Super-Villains! This one is a bit different though! Why? Lets take a look at Lego DC Super-Villains! Lego DC Super-Villains looks like it’ll be a little different from the usual Lego video games. In all the Lego games so far, you started out playing as one of your favorite heroes (or characters from a movie like Star…

Flowers are first drawn onto the screen, then color spreads and the world of Valkyria Chronicles 4 is brought to life. Right away, Valkyria’s graphics are impressive. Not just the cutscenes, but the actual gameplay too. That said, does it have fun gameplay? I played the demo of Valkyria Chronicles 4 some yesterday and now I’m ready to give you my first impressions of the it. Should you check out the demo too? Valkyria Chronicles 4 is a beautiful game,…

If you haven't heard of Mario + Rabbids: Kingdom Battle, do yourself a favour and hop over to our review and give it a read. Recently, Ubisoft - in partnership with Nintendo - released a brand new DLC pack title Donkey Kong Adventure, and it was just as good as the original release.

Real Time Strategy games on console have rarely ever worked, and in our opinion, we have been let down by more titles than we have been pleased with. Enter Sudden Strike 4, a World War 2 era RTS game on console that has you moving troops around various battle fields, working towards domination and victory. Is Sudden Strike like almost everything else that comes to console, or have the PC controls been mapped well for a surprisingly good RTS experience? Let's dig in!

The much anticipated DLC for Mario + Rabbids: Kingdom Battle launched today, and fans can now hope into some strategic turn based action using everyone's favourite ape, Donkey Kong. Along for the ride is rabbid Cranky as well, and together, they are ready to find the missing washing machine parts and head back to Peach's castle.

E3 2018 is over. That's it folks. It went by so fast! And I have a lot of mixed feeling about this E3. I'll get into that, plus who I thought won E3 and what my favorite games were. Lets get to it. Final E3 column of the year!

The tower defense genre can be a mixed bag at times. I’ve played some tower defense games that were really good, others that had potential but were a bit too complex, and still others that were too simple. Alchemic Jousts for the Nintendo Switch is a tower defense game that looks good, but is it? There is no story or setup for Alchemic Jousts. Instead, the player is a given tutorial pop-up boxes that help teach you how to play…
