Whenever a game finally comes out after what feels like years of delays, the fear of it not living up to the hype it generated is warranted. While some games are able to live up to the hype and...

Bean Beasts Review
Write a comment

I had such an unexpected surprise when I was scrolling Steam’s new releases and spotted Bean Beasts' release! It’s been quite a while since I played a tower defense game and Bean Beasts definitely ticked all the boxes for intriguing me. I instantly picked it up, had it installed, and was setting up my first defensive run in probably the fastest impulse decision possible, and you can ask Daxel, I don’t make a ton of fast impulses when it comes to buying games. Was it the cute blue lizard main character riding his trusty turtle steed? Was it the dog beast galloping by your side, defending you with all his might? Maybe it was the feeling of impending doom with a giant dinosaur looming just over the horizon, roaring to challenge those who enter his domain. Who’s to say? All I knew was I was in it to win it, and Bean Beasts was scratching the itch of conquest.

Dragon Detective: A Friend From the Shadows Review
Write a comment

I do enjoy a good mystery. There’s something to be said for that moment when you figure out the culprit and are rewarded for your diligence. I love games like Ace Attorney where humor meets murder mystery, leaving you smiling as much as it leaves you thinking. So when the opportunity to review a detective game where you play as a dragon came along, I was all for it.

Inkshade Review: A World Painted Black
Write a comment

When you start this game, you are dragged along the floor by a large, mysterious creature. When this blue-eyed creature greets you from the shadows, telling you we’re going to play a game, it bears an uncanny resemblance to Inscryption’s first chapter. This is perhaps everyone’s favorite part of Inscryption, the grim atmosphere, playing a game of life or death with an unknown creature that narrates your encounters in their game. Inkshade successfully captures that feeling of being trapped with an entity that treats this situation with the same callous amusement as someone pulling the wings off flies. 

Wildgate Review - A Spacefaring Frenzy
Write a comment

Space-faring ship warfare with friends is a great hook for a game. Even since videogames have been a thing, people have wanted to fly around outside of our Earthly orbit and take fiery, laser-powered shots at one another. What’s surprising is that it hasn’t been done on the carefully crafted scale that Wildgate does it at. Five ships with 1-4 person crews all spawn into a battlefield filled with hazards, loot-filled PvE opportunities, challenges, and a game-winning artifact to capture. Pilot, protect, and power up your ship’s arsenal all whilst the constant threat of opposing ships sits somewhere within the nearby space you occupy as they all try and reach the same goal: capture the artifact or take out all other ships to win the match. Wildgate, at its core, is a fun & super engaging team-based extraction shooter that facilitates some really epic moments with your buddies, but comes with a pretty steep learning curve to achieve success. After 7 hours in the skies around the Wildgate with various crews, I can say that I did come around to understanding and appreciating the mission Moonshot Games had with Wildgate, but there are some areas where I wish they’d tweak some decisions to better the gameplay experience for all skill levels.

OFF Review - Unforgettable Surrealism
Write a comment

Something’s…off. You arrive in a mysterious world in control of a mysterious “Batter” character. Suddenly, you’re approached by a semi-terrifying cat-like character named “The Judge” and tasked with purifying the world you’ve been thrown into. Oh…okay, you say, unaware of the repercussions of your actions in this virtual world. How often do we go along with whatever a videogame places in front of us? This is the basis for “OFF”, a remastering of the original 2008 classic that inspired many RPG concepts after it, including the incredibly popular “Undertale” game. After playing through it, I can see why the uniquely unsettling nature of this game could be the seed that produced such thought-provoking concepts Undertale tackled later on. I wasn’t sure how I felt about OFF until about 2/3rds of the way through the story, when it all started to tie together more tangibly. After that, it became very clear how this little game became so influential.
