SoulStream Saga Devs Announce Prologue Demo

If there’s anything I keep an eye on like a bloodhound to chicken, it’s a good JRPG. Indie RPGs usually have a good vibe to them and at least attempt to meld the ideas of yesteryear with modern conventions. Now, the devs…

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…
