From Space (PC) Review

From Space is a new top-down arcade shooter from developer Triangle Studios and published by Curve Games. The game places you into the shoes of an elite specialist who must defend the earth from an alien infestation. The story of From Space…

Star Trek: Lower Decks “Envoys” – Review

Two episodes in and we’ve got a Ferengi and an alcoholic Klingon. I love when absolute nerds (that are proficient) are let loose on established IPs. “Envoys,” is yet another example of character work while doing something fun with the franchise of…

Star Ocean: The Divine Force (PS5) Review

I have been a fan of the Star Ocean franchise for a long time. In fact, there was a time in my life when I felt that Tri-Ace RPGs were the pinnacle of RPG craftsmanship, even beyond the Final Fantasy franchise. Hopefully,…

Romancing SaGa -Minstrel Song- Remastered (Switch) Review

SaGa Frontier Remastered was my very first SaGa experience. I had heard a variety of things about the franchise and found myself surprisingly really enjoying it. So, when Romancing SaGa -Minstrel Song- Remastered was announced, I knew I had to give it…

I like a good beat-em-up as much as the next person. I grew up on games like Streets of Rage, Golden Axe, and the old TMNT arcade-style games. I wasn’t familiar with the Asterix and Obelix IP though, so I decided to…

The Callisto Protocol (Xbox Series X) Review

Impaler (PC) Review

When you think of three dollars, what’s the first thing that comes to mind? A cup of coffee, a movie rental, or maybe a gallon of gas? Any way you look at it, it’s not a lot of money. When Vampire Survivors was…

Wavetale (PS5) Review

Sometimes I feel bad for developers that release games late in the year. Most of the time by December you’ve already got your Game of the Year picked out, and you’ve already blown your game budget on a sale of some sort.…
