Cozy Sanctuary Review
Write a comment

We like cute things around here. So when we have the opportunity to start a community of precious animal cuties along the bottom of our screen, we take it. That’s what we got from Cozy Sanctuary, a new casual desktop idle “farm” management game that lets you keep a flock of furry friends happy along the edge of your taskbar with light farming, cleaning, and maintenance tasks to help you grow and populate your precious farm of animals.

The Day I Became A Bird Review - Feathery Friendship
Write a comment

What’s it like to feel love for the first time? To become head over heels for another, and become enamored with the beauty they see in life, too? The Day I Became A Bird is a short, simplistic game based on a children’s book that explores these experiences. Ingrid Chabbert, the author of the book, and Guridi, the illustrator of said book, along with Passion Animation which crafted a short based on the book, along with Developer Hyper Luminal Games Ltd and Publisher Numskull Games help bring the story and its lightly emotional narrative to life within the game’s approximately 60-90 minute runtime. I knew going in that I would be in for an experience that wouldn’t have me relying on keen gameplay senses, but more on soaking up every ounce of comforting, goosebump-inducing adolescent reminiscing I could gather. When the game has you tearing up and smiling as you reach its precipice, you know it’s been worth it. 

Pokémon Champions Review - A New Era of Battling
Write a comment

Ever since its inception, Pokémon has continued to grow in popularity, eventually becoming a mainstream phenomenon. This growth has also resulted in players finding a variety of different ways to play: There are the challenge runners who impose rules and restrictions on themselves. Shiny hunters who have been blessed with the patience of saints as they constantly reset for starters and of course, the competitive battlers. Make no mistake, Champions is firmly aimed at making competitive battling more accessible than ever before. Players, both new and old, will find that there is plenty to like here while there are also a few head scratchers. It’s a brave new frontier trainers.

ChainStaff Review - Beyond your imagination
Write a comment

A Star Spore has crashed onto Earth, bringing with it creatures beyond our nightmares and slowly decimating the Earth and killing all life, including our protagonist, Sergeant Varlette. But, it seems Lady Luck had other plans as one of the aliens has decided to make your body it’s home and now, imbued with their powers (as well as the future knowledge that your head was up an alien’s butt), it’s up to you to use these gifts and fight back against the spore menace and save the world. I played many games that had crazy premises for alien invasion, but I don’t think I played any with a concept as wild and out there as ChainStaff, from developer Mommy’s Best Games (the same guys behind the seriously under-rated Serious Sam Double D XXL), and I mean that in a good way: This game is insane, wild, disgusting, beautiful, and I just couldn’t stop playing.

Nova Antarctica Review
Write a comment

The Antarctic Circle is one not made for easily traveling through. It’s rough, intimidating, and bleakly mysterious. Nova Antarctica’s devs decided that’s exactly where we should challenge our players. So, I strapped on my weather-resistant suit and set off with nothing in my backpack but a hope and dream of reaching the South Pole. What followed was a challenging, frustrating, but ultimately rewarding experience that I’m only beginning to see the fruits of my labor from. Surprisingly, those fruits are pretty satisfying, even after all of the struggles. I originally started this game just after launch and didn’t get very far into the game, but then they put out a huge update a few months afterwards that transformed the playability of the game, and really allowed me to push further into the harsh lands they had set out before me.
