FreezeMe is a 3D platformer in the vain of Super Mario 64. The game comes to the Wii U eshop today. Here is a first look at FreezeMe. FreezeMe wants to be Super Mario 64. There is a huge open world, different missions to take on, platforming challenges, and other bits and pieces that will make you think of Super Mario 64. But will the game create its own identity or just live in Mario’s shadow? I received a review…

In a desolate future, a man and his dog need your help. No, this isn’t Fallout 4. I’m talking about Lionel City Builder 3D: Rise of the Rails, a train simulation game released recently for the 3DS. In the game, you drive trains and deliver stuff in the Story Mode and build stuff in the Creation Mode. But what if you have no interest in trains? Is Lionel City Builder a good game for everyone, a good one for just train enthusiasts, or should you just avoid the game completely?

A wonderful site called WiiWareWave had a contest on twitter to win a Wii U indie game called Discovery. Discovery is yet another brick creation game in the vain of Minecraft. I had already played two other block creation games (Cube Life for Wii U and The Magic Hammer for 3DS) and thought they were just ok. And yet, I keep wanting to like this genre.
