Starlink: Battle for Atlas (PC) Review

As a previous GameStop employee in 2019, I can’t begin to tell you how many Skylanders were brought into my store that I couldn’t accept for trade-in. The toys-to-life genre of games, including titles like Disney Universe and Lego Dimensions which secured…

Channel Zero Season 3 Episode 3 Review: “All You Ghost Mice”

“All You Ghost Mice” functions in many ways as a one-room (or, perhaps, one-house) problem. It hinges primarily on the trappings and tribulations that make up the Peach house, and the relative inability of protagonists’ Alice and Zoe to find their way…

Anodyne 2: Return to Dust (Switch) Review

It isn’t often that I find myself at a loss for words when it comes to explaining a game. I’ve been doing this job of reviewing and writing about games since I was 16, so almost 11 years. Because of that, I’d…

Doctor Who “Victory Of The Daleks” – Review

Channel Zero Season 3 Episode 2 Review: “Father Time”

“Butcher Block”‘s second episode, “Father Time,” is a stylistic vision layered over questionable substance. In all honestly, that’s a not-uncommon foible from the horror that deliberately leans into the gross-out factor. It feels particularly jarring here, though, as the writing moves between…

Curse of the Dead Gods (Switch) Review

As a lot of our readers are no doubt aware by now, I love Roguelikes. However, I must admit that after playing Hades, I somewhat feel spoiled. Why? Because as I have previously mentioned, Hades has become my new gold standard for…

Airstrife: Assault of the Aviators (PC) Review

When I review games, I have an open mind on all fronts. I don’t particularly mind the genre, the art style, the experience behind the developer, etc. If a game is fun in the end, those are just minute details that don’t…

Warning: This article contains mentions of death, misogyny, racism, and spoilers for Werewolf: The Apocalypse – Earthblood. Werewolf: The Apocalypse – Earthblood is the recently released action RPG from developer Cyanide, set in and borrowing from the World of Darkness tabletop RPG…
