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,…

When I heard the former creator of Harvest Moon - back when the franchise was the talk of farming simulation - was creating a brand new experience that would involve fishing, farming, and dragon raising, I was immediately intrigued and exited for the experience that was about to come. As time wore on, and more and more information about the game came to light, I began to have my doubts that this once famed developer would be able to rekindle the old Harvest Moon magic within a new title, and perhaps even, a new franchise. Now that I've played through the ...

We had a Switch Indie Highlight video this week from the UK. You may have thought, well, thats it for the Indies then. You would be wrong. Nintendo of America announced a Nindie Showcase video presentation for next week. Check out the announcement below and some thoughts from me. On one hand, I think this Nindie showcase could be full of updates on previously announced games and new indie games for the Switch. On the other hand, we just got…

In the newest Lego DC Super Villains trailer, Darkseid and his home Apokolips, two Jack Kirby creations, show up to wreck (improve?) everyone’s day! Check out the trailer and then some thoughts from me. Its hard for me to explain how excited I am for Lego DC Super Villains. Even more so, I’m excited for the appearance of Darkseid and Apokolips in the game. Jack Kirby is one of the greatest comic book creators ever. Jack and Stan Lee created…

Gamescom 2018 is in full swing, and Ubisoft kept up with everyone else yesterday and launched two new trailers for Assassin's Creed Odyssey, which is due out later this year on October 5th.

On top of a new Xbox bundle and PUBG exiting early access and getting a full release, the company announced a number of other great things, many of which were a complete surprise! We've got a rundown list of all the announcements below!

In the Luigi’s Mansion game, a Nintendo 3DS remake of the spooky Nintendo GameCube game, Luigi must enter a sprawling mansion equipped with nothing but his trusty flashlight and Poltergust 3000, a vacuum-like contraption used to capture ghosts, find treasure and…

I played Earthlock on the Wii U. I didn’t like it. When the title came to the Nintendo Switch, I was very skeptical. Then a demo came to the eshop. I was curious and so I downloaded it. Is Earthlock better on the Nintendo Switch or does its Wii U problems still plague it? On the Wii U, Earthlock had very long load times. You had a long load time whenever you went into another area. This made the game…

When there aren't any events going on in Disney Magic Kingdoms - which doesn't seem to be that frequent this year - players need to take advantage of the downtime to get their characters upgraded. If there was anything the Maleficent content taught me, it is that having characters at high levels makes finishing the quests much easier. Let's dive into why it's important to use down time wisely!
