House Flipper’s Switch Version Gets Farm DLC
One of my biggest issues with House Flipper for years has been its lack of Switch DLC. Because the Nintendo Switch DLC was done by a different studio, Frozen District mostly left the Switch version behind for a while. Now, this injustice…
Pacific Drive to get First DLC Expansion
I’ve heard a lot of good things about Pacific Drive. The Survival Driving adventure has been critically acclaimed since it was released in February 2024. Now, fans of the game have new content to look forward to, thanks to a brand-new announcement.…
Shantae Advance: Risky’s Revolution (PC) Review
I’m very fond of the Shantae series. Wayforward’s Genie-themed Metroidvania franchise is a hidden gem that often gets mocked because of its scantily clad heroine or the occasional large-breasted boss enemy. Shantae Advance: Risky’s Revolution is the latest entry, yet Wayforward has…

Grim Trials Demo Preview
I caught a glimpse of Grim Trials during the Summer Game Fest, and I was immediately interested. A Hades-esque game with the story of training a Grim Reaper? What’s not to like? Now, having played a piece of Grim Trials via its…
Shinobi: Art of Vengeance Gets Launch Trailer
The Shinobi franchise has always been a “fun, but hard” thing for me. I’m not great at it, but I enjoy the ride anyway. Now, with Shinobi: Art of Vengeance on the horizon, I’m more excited than ever to play Joe Musashi’s…
