Yesterday, Nintendo had a Treehouse Live and showed off several games. The game that stood out the most to me was Yoshi’s Crafted World! Check out the Yoshi’s Crafted World Treehouse Live gameplay video below and then please come back for my thoughts on the footage. Yoshi’s Crafted World looks fantastic! I think the graphics look even better than Yoshi’s Woolly World, which is saying a lot because that game looked great. This new Yoshi game has a wonderful look…

Home Sweet Home is a first-person indie-horror game inspired by Thai myths and beliefs that was recently released on PS4 and Xbox One from Thai developer Yggdrazil. Yggdrazil is not known for game creation, as it boasts projects in VFX, Animation, Art Design and Online-Editing categories, with very little focus on games. For a company with such a diverse portfolio, it would be an understatement to say I was surprised with the overall quality of Home Sweet Home.

If you like puzzle video games (maybe even if you don’t), then its very likely that you’ve played a version of Tetris. I’ve played a lot of Tetris games. I still own Puyo Puyo Tetris on the Nintendo Switch and play it once and awhile. You would think after so many Tetris games, I’d be tired of the series. Tetris always draws me back in. And the upcoming Tetris Effect may be the neatest version yet. I played some of…

Nintendo had a 40 minute Super Smash Bros Ultimate Nintendo Direct today. The Direct is available below in case you missed it or want to rewatch it. New characters, an adventure mode, and DLC pricing were among the reveals in today’s Super Smash Bros Ultimate Nintendo Direct! Did you like the Direct? What was your favorite reveal? Super Smash Bors. Ultimate is currently available for pre-purchase via the Nintendo Switch eshop! Also, as of this writing, the Treehouse Live is…

The day before Fornite…I mean…the day before Halloween! I may have mentioned it in another More Thoughts, I’ve written so many of these who knows, but Halloween is my favorite holiday. Not Christmas (I do love it), not Thanksgiving (ditto), not my birthday (a valid holiday). Halloween. Why? Well, yes, mostly because of the candy, though I love spooky stuff too. I’m having fun watching the Chilling Adventures of Sabrina, I enjoyed Splatoween, and I had a lot of fun…

Nintendo announced a Smash Bros Direct and a Treehouse Live for this Thursday. We have more details below and my thoughts on the two events. The Super Smash Bros Ultimate Direct will air on Thursday (11/1) at 10 a.m. ET and be 40 minutes long. After its over, a Treehouse Live will air and feature Smash Bros, Pokemon Lets Go!, Yoshi’s Crafted World, and Diablo 3. I can’t say I’m excited about a 40 minute long Direct just for Smash…

Despite the small screen size and clutter user interface, playing Civilization 6 on the iPhone was still a fantastic experience, which is forcing me to backtrack comments I made via twitter about the game. We all know how fantastic the Civilization franchise is, and it's been a staple on the PC for over a decade. Now with the franchise available on iPhone and iPad, consoles, and the PC, there literally is no excuse for anyone to not give the game a try.

Two-man indie developer out of Spain, Isolated Games, has begun an enormous undertaking. They are in the process of developing Between The Stars, an open-world space-themed action RPG with roguelike elements. If you think that is a mouthful to say, imagine what it must be like for a two-man team to create. While this may seem a monumental task, the guys at Isolated Games have made significant strides and recently released a demo of the game which I simply had to try out!

Capcom has already bought the two Resident Evil Revelations games to the Nintendo Switch and Resident Evil 7 Cloud Edition in Japan. They’re not done yet! Capcom announced today that they’ll be bringing three more Resident Evil games to the Switch in 2019. On their official twitter today, Capcom said, “Capcom is bringing multiple fan favorites to Nintendo Switch! Resident Evil, Resident Evil 0, and Resident Evil 4 will each be launching on Nintendo Switch in 2019! We’ll have more…

Syberia 3 is an adventure game in the vain of King’s Quest or more recently, Thimbleweed, but without the humor and a ton more puzzles to solve. The game recently came to the Nintendo Switch and I received a review code for it. Is Syberia 3 a good game or should you skip this adventure? Before you start Syberia 3, make sure you watch ‘the previously on Syberia’ video. Syberia 3 does not introduce Kate Walker and throws you right…
