Everyone knows how fairy tales are supposed to go: The princess is kidnapped and locked away in a dungeon, and a brave hero comes along to save her and defeat whatever great evil was keeping her captive. Except what if it wasn't that simple? What if it was the princess herself that was the great evil? That's the question being asked by Slay the Princess, the upcoming visual novel from developer Black Tabby Games. In this game, you play as the brave hero, of course, but as the title suggests, you've actually been sent to

In 2019, Disco Elysium took the gaming world by storm and showed how RPGs could focus much more on storytelling and do a much better job of emulating the feeling of playing at a tabletop. Now we're just starting to see the first wave of games that seem clearly inspired by Disco Elysium, and this one just might be the first must-play RPG of 2024. This is Sovereign Syndicate, a CRPG being made by a small indie team in Canada. Like Disco Elysium, it's an RPG that's more heavily focused on narrative and dialogue, but it also sets itself apart in some key ways. For one, it's got a unique Victorian steampunk setting that looks absolutely fantastic. Fantasy creatures like minotaurs, dwarves, and cyclopes are mixed together with grimy factories, smokestacks, and zeppelins. And it all takes place in London!

I’ve always had a special place in my heart for mysteries. There’s a puzzle-solving element to a good whodunit that makes it feel like a game, even when I’m actually reading a book or watching a movie. The best mysteries are a challenge between me and the detective, and they’re a blast to experience, even if I’m the one that loses. Lately, I’ve been keeping myself busy with The Centennial Case: A Shijima Story

A roguelite deckbuilding dungeon-crawler. Better than other deck-building roguelikes/roguelites (Pirates Outlaws, Dawncaster, Night of the Full Moon, Phantom Rose Scarlet, Meteorfall, Void Tyrant, Spellswords, etc.). Easier to replace cards, choose path within dungeon, visit shrines (to heal HP or remove curses) located at different paths. Have partner system; you don't fight alone any more. Deep customization on deck playstyle, runes on cards (adds extra effect), character talents, buffs/debuffs passives, character class, & 1-use items.

Whether you appreciate games for their storylines, world-building, or exciting action sequences, their capacity to entice you into their intricate worlds is often times a very challenging ordeal, especially when they are presented in a visually simple way, there are a variety of reasons why I could see you really getting into the M.B.U universe. Although there were times when the gameplay was slow, and I mean very slow, I truly appreciated everything that the game had to offer as a morally right/wrong choice.

We're always looking for the perfect game for the Halloween season, and it doesn't get much more perfect than World of Horror. In the works for years now, World of Horror is like a love letter to everything about the horror genre—but with a special focus on the unsettling body horror of manga artist Junji Ito and the unspeakable cosmic horror of author H.P. Lovecraft. What's most amazing about World of Horror is what it accomplishes with so little, though. The visuals are extremely lo-fi—in fact, the game's black-and-white art was literally created using MS Paint! Despite those humble tools, though, solo developer Panstasz has created some memorable and truly disturbing imagery.

The market has become a cacophony of futuristic cityscapes and neon-lit landscapes in an era saturated with many cyberpunk-themed games. The challenge to captivate the attention of discerning gamers has escalated, demanding a unique and compelling approach within the cyberpunk genre. Amidst this digital maelstrom, "Minds Beneath Us" emerges as a beacon of innovation and intrigue, poised to redefine the boundaries of the sci-fi thriller experience. Transporting players into a meticulously crafted dystopian future, "Minds Beneath Us" unfolds a narrative where the symbiosis of humans and artificial intelligence has given rise to a captivating and unsettling reality. The game paints a vivid picture of sprawling skylines adorned with futuristic architectures that seamlessly blend the organic and the synthetic. Neon signs flicker with an ethereal glow, casting an otherworldly ambiance over the sprawling metropolis as the backdrop to this immersive gaming experience.

"Roto Force" is like a high-energy rollercoaster wrapped in a top-down shooter package. If you've ever wanted a game to fry your brain in the best possible way while keeping you glued to your screen, the game is your jam. The premise? Simple. You're a tiny hero tasked with blasting through enemies across crazy, rotating levels. Each stage has unique themes, enemies, and hazards, so there's no room for boredom here. The gameplay revolves around you zooming in a circular arena, dodging bullets, and dishing out chaos. It's fast, chaotic, and oh-so-satisfying when you nail a level after a dozen tries.

'Until Then' is truly a one-of-a-kind game. The intro, art style, narration, story, characters, music, dialogues, mini-games, and everything else were really impressive. After finishing the game, I felt like rain had washed over me. At first, I was caught off guard (especially because of the final scene) and soon felt the coldness of the rain. But then I was happy and content with how everything seemed to make sense. When it was finally over, it left me feeling a bit empty as well.

Warzone mobile is the best game uploaded in 2023, the graphics are absolutely gorgeous, the game runs great on my HTC Thunderbolt absolutely crushes the perfromance I got on my Acer Aspire 5743 when playing on the PC version. It even looks better than the PC version did on my Acer laptop! I cannot believe just how bad PC Games are!The gunplay is great and is far superior to that of the PC version, infact all of the mechanics are better than that "Game." The game has a lot of cool cosmetics that look better on the mobile version than on the PC version too. It is better than the Tencent Crap that is Codm mobile, it even runs better and looks better than that.I would recommend this game to any true mobile gamer.

PLAY IT OR SKIP IT? Play it if you’re a fan of visual novels or narrative-driven games. Harmony: The Fall of Reverie is a choice-based game from the developers of Life Is Strange, and while it doesn’t quite capture that game’s slice-of-life magic, it still tells a rich and fascinating story. Set in the not-too-distant future, Harmony follows Polly, a seemingly ordinary woman who returns to her hometown after her mother goes missing. Before she can start her search, Polly discovers that she’s actually an oracle that can travel to a magical realm called Reverie and see the future before it unfolds. Now, she must use her newfound power to make tough decisions and restore balance to two very different worlds.

PLAY IT OR SKIP IT? Play it if you’re a fan of Star Trek or choice-based games, but consider waiting for a patch. Star Trek: Resurgence has solid writing, fleshed-out characters, and high-impact decision-making but technical issues detracted my overall experience. The quality of its story helped make up for some of the gameplay’s shortcomings, but there were still times when it felt frustrating to play. At its best, the game reminded me of the first

The Lifeline series is definitely one of the best choice-based games on mobile. I like the first one the most. Players will communicate with Taylor through real-time messages to guide him to survive a spaceship disaster. The dialogues are well-written. A truly immersive interactive experience.

very fun open world rpg dungeon crawler from blizzard entertainment it's a huge indepth game with great story campaign and u can create a clan also a warband to fight bosses with u can sell gems on the trade market for in-game currentcy witch is allways fun  overall I gota say I love the game 5

here.This game is an entirely text based rpg. It has good writing and good controls. Unlike tthe other nominations this game doesn't have stuff like animation to prop it up, I nominate this game because I feel the writing and the few in game illustrations shown is able to compete with the other AAA game nominations.

Do Not Feed the Monkeys 2099 (Reviewed) Developer: Fictiorama Studios Publisher: Joystick Ventures Released: May 25th, 2023 Price: $15 USD Do Not Feed the Monkeys 2099 is a choices matter simulation game. Where you are in charge of keeping an eye on subjects via a network of surveillance cameras, under the watchful eyes of the organization pulling all of the strings. A few surveillance cameras may be disturbing and that's the point, remember that this is a strategy game about how to balance your resources, money, and efficacy more so than feeling sorry for some of the subjects and their lives.

Pros You won't be able to create a character. The game is choosing for you with name/image/attributes Graphics are kinda old school and neat If you die you can resurrect by either using gems or an AD There are some choices that have some impact like when you meet the elf that helps you (Irelle) kill the giant and later down the road you can choose to side either with elves or pioneers and your 'friend' is in there also plus Majet that helped you kill The spider woman quest You can marry her if you do it right too

One of the great things about video games is that they can cover so much territory. Take RPGs for example. You've got high fantasy escapism in series like Final Fantasy, epic sci-fi dreams of the future in stuff like Mass Effect, and strange musings on philosophy and politics in a game like Disco Elysium. Long Gone Days doesn't quite fit into any of those categories, though it's closest to the last one. This ambitious RPG follows a young man named Rourke who's been trained from birth to be a living weapon of war. Once Rourke is actually sent into battle, though, he finds himself conflicted as he comes face-to-face with disturbing realities of wartime.
