Silent Hope (Switch) Review
The roguelike craze is far from over. In fact, we’re going to see a lot more of them in the coming years. Some stand out like Hades, and others end up falling out of the news cycle as soon as they enter…

Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 Adds New Content
Bandai Namco has unveiled the latest content update for Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 this week. Xenoverse 2 is one of those games that I’m surprised has stuck around for as long as it has. Of course, it has a powerful brand driving…
Cocoon (PC) Review
You may remember that strange, slightly muted in sections, but often times colorful and mind-bending puzzle game from this year’s faux-E3 showcases. Particularly the Day of the Devs where Geometric Interactive and Annapurna Interactive showed off the stunning Cocoon from designer Jeppe Carlsen, designer of Limbo and Inside. To…

Afterimage (PC) Review
The Metroidvania genre is full of variety. There are Metroidvanias that lean more toward the Souls-like side of focusing on difficulty and exploration. Alternatively, there are Metroidvanias that lean more into the exploration and narrative side of things. Afterimage is in a…
Enchanted Portals (PC) Review
When I first saw that Enchanted Portals existed, I was slightly intrigued since the art style was very similar to Cuphead’s iconic designs. It is so prevalent that many people go about simply calling this game “The Cuphead Clone.” To say that…
Before The Night Brings Retro Horror to Nintendo Switch
We’re almost in peak spooky season. It’s that time of year horror fans rejoice and easily-scared folks like myself pretend we like scary things. Luckily, a lot of video games that are horror-adjacent are fitting for the season without giving you a…
