Infinity HexaDome Tactics Preview (PC)
It’s been a preview and tactics type of week, folks. First, we previewed Star Wars: Zero Company early in the week, which looks and plays phenomenally, and then we got a preview of Blindspot Games’ Infinity HexaDome Tactics. I’m not complaining. Anyhoo, Infinity HexaDome Tactics is an interesting game that takes a tactical, strategy-and-turn-based approach and leans toward the competitive side of ...[Read More]
Frostrail set to start its closed beta August 31st
Took me a second to realize how to pronounce that name. The game does look solid (no pun intended). Check out the official closed beta details below. BORDEAUX, France – July 20, 2026 – Frostrail, the brutal co-op survival FPS from Barotrauma developer FakeFish and publisher Shiro Unlimited, pulls into the Steam Train Fest and SimFest Workers and Resources Fest today with the announcement of a Clo...[Read More]
Bandit Trap Review (PS5)
Multiplayer madness is in full effect with this one. Bandit Trap from developer PICOMY is a multiplayer-driven 3v1 gameplay experience. There are four total players involved in the game, one being a homeowner and three being thieves. The idea is to try to prevent thieves from stealing all the valuables in the house by setting wonderfully stupid traps in common household accessories. When the game ...[Read More]
Feed the AI – Impressions (PC)
What in the world is this game? Also, why did I enjoy it? Questions to answer right now, based on the following impressions. Feed the AI is an interesting game from Weird Kid Games. It’s like a ticket game at the local Dave & Busters, where once you drop a coin and play it, you win some tickets, and then try again for no good reason. Even in its simplicity, playing that ticket game makes you f...[Read More]
Super Bomberman Collection Review (PC)
The last time I dived headfirst into the Bomberman series was with the Sega Saturn back in the late 90s. My friend, Shane Bettenhausen, had the imported version for the Saturn and the capabilities of playing 10-players at once thanks to a multi-tap controller port. What ensued for hours upon hours was a competitive Bomberman tournament that devolved into a drinking game at one point (not Shane, bu...[Read More]
Take Time Review (Board Game)
Sometimes, reviewing board games begins with a preconceived notion of how a game is going to be. Well, that’s most of the time, just to be transparent. Reading descriptions and seeing the pieces and parts develops this assumption about whether a game is going to be good or bad. It’s a common habit with reviewers. The trick is to be open-minded, while starting positive and thinking it’s the best b...[Read More]
Tingus Goose Review (PC)
What in the holy hell did I play? That’s what players will ask themselves as they stop laughing, and this game will certainly get a chuckle from players. Tingus Goose from developer SweatyChair is a ‘unique’ puzzle game that forces you to think strategically about how best to earn money from falling babies. Are you confused by that statement? It’s quite accurate. This is an oddity of a game, and t...[Read More]
Reus 2 Review (Nintendo Switch 2)
I haven’t played God like this since Electronic Arts released Populous on the Sega Genesis. It’s good to be back to godhood. Reus 2, from developer Abbey Games and publisher Firesquid Games, allows players to play as a god. Or two. Or more. Players create worlds using different gods that add their own spice to planets (not Dune spice), while cultivating and building civilizations that produce vary...[Read More]
Plants vs. Zombies Replanted Review (PS5)
I am torn on this review, and not for the reasons you might think. Plants vs Zombies Replanted, from developer PopCap and publisher Electronic Arts, hit virtual stores on consoles last week and brought with it a complete package of fun. Local co-op, dozens of mini-games and puzzles, and the same insane fun that the original went wild with on PC, Mac, and mobile so long ago. While touted as a remas...[Read More]
Yield! Fall of Rome Review (PC)
Ever since the emergence of strategy games in the late 80s, thank you, Battletech, and the quality of the genre reaching its zenith in the 90s, courtesy of Command and Conquer and World of Warcraft, the gaming world has been gifted thousands, if not tens of thousands, of strategy-based games. Most strategy games have turned out less than perfect, while the ones mentioned above became the best of t...[Read More]
Kunitsu-Gami: Path of the Goddess Review (Nintendo Switch 2)
Sometimes I like a little action with my strategy, but only when it promises to fit like a glove and not get in the way of the action. And this one almost fit perfectly. Kunitsu-Gami: Path of the Goddess, from developer Capcom, came out on the PlayStation 5 (and other platforms) around a year ago and has made its way to the Nintendo Switch 2. While not much has changed, other than playing it on a ...[Read More]
Bionic Bay Review (PC)
Years ago, I was privy to an early copy of Limbo. It was a silent and mysterious game that based its entire gameplay concept off of not seeing the main character’s features and developing a creepy-ass story for their controllable silhouette. The game featured some unsettling moments, including a large spider-like creature trying to stab the main character along their journey, and also some melanch...[Read More]
