Escape Academy Review

What they have created with Escape Academy is wildly addictive and best played with multiple people. While visually it’s nothin...[Read More]
Moo Lander Review
Outside of a chicken sandwich chain, if you put cows in your product, I’m game. Moo Lander from developers The Sixth Hammer is an addictive shooter with RPG elements (go figure), where you play as an alien on the hunt for…cows. The concept is out there, as is the mixture between puzzle, shooter, and RPG, but much like putting ice in milk, it’s a great combination. Let’s milk this review. Story and...[Read More]

Harlow is an interesting puzzle game. It has a lot of personality to it, both visually and sound-wise, with influence from games like Loco Roco. Much like the latter, Harlow is incredibly addictive with a side of tricky. Let’s dig into it. It’s party planning time! The idea behind Harlow is simple.

Hands-on Impressions – Zorya: The Celestial Sisters
