Clockwork Ambrosia (PC) Review

I love Metroidvania games a lot. I find myself wishlisting a lot of them when I see them pop up either in my inbox or on my Steam recommendations list. As such, Clockwork Ambrosia was on my radar before its release date.…

Directive 8020 (PC) Review

Of all the games that I have been pining for over the last year, Directive 8020 has been near the top of the list consistently. Another horror choose your own adventure game from Supermassive Games, the masterminds behind The Dark Pictures Anthology…

Feline Forensics and the Meowseum Mystery (PC) Review

I love noir mysteries and puzzle games. The Agatha Christie games from Microids are solid examples of this, as are the Duck Detective games. Now, a new game has joined the roster of my regular mystery rotation. Feline Forensics and the Meowseum…

Wax Heads (PC) Review

You kids today have things so easy, with your music streaming platforms that pay artists a pittance. Back in my day, if we wanted to acquire music through the Internet, we had to buy songs in a proprietary format on iTunes. Or,…

Bus Bound (PC) – Review

Vampire Crawlers (PC) Review

Oh, my dearest poncle, what have you done to me? I swear, after spending hundreds of hours on Vampire Survivors (and its various DLCs), I knew that Vampire Crawlers was going to swallow me. As I suspected, Vampire Crawlers is a surprising…

SoulQuest (PC) Review

I love a good action game. In fact, Bayonetta and Okami are two of my favorite games of all time. SoulQuest is inspired by this sort of action, but the irony is that the soul of those games doesn’t quite reach this…

Mouse: P.I. for Hire (PC) Review

Ah, now here’s a game I was really hoping I’d get to review. Given its reputation and “overwhelmingly positive” Steam reviews, I think this is a game that needs little (if any) introduction. What we’ve got here is Mouse: P.I. for Hire,…

Moomintroll: Winter’s Warmth (PC) Review

It is rare that I find a game that nails everything it sets out to do. I missed out on playing Snufkin: Melody of Moominvalley, so when I saw the trailer for Moomintroll: Winter’s Warmth, I immediately knew I needed to play…
