Cyberpunk 2077 meets Sekiro in this action-packed 2D platformer

SHOULD I PLAY NINE SOLS? Play it. In its current demo version, Nine Sols offers less than an hour of great storytelling and fun hack-and-slash gameplay, but it’s totally worth the experience. While a few balancing issues need to be addressed before the full release, Nine Sols has become one of my most anticipated games for next year. TIME PLAYED I played Nine Sols for forty minutes, which was enough time to complete the entire demo, including one boss fight. The demo took me through most of the first chapter of the story, and I’m eager to see how the plot opens up from here when the full game comes out.

A better-than-average gacha that could use more content

Grand Quest just entered open beta, and as someone who's always searching for my next go-to gacha game, I had to give it a shot. So far, I'm definitely pretty impressed, though it has some work to go. Perhaps the biggest surprise in Grand Quest, especially when compared to other gacha games, is that the story is pretty entertaining and well-translated. Much of it is told through stylish comic book-panel cutscenes, and I was shocked to find myself actually enjoying getting to know these characters.

Moonlight Blade might scratch your mobile MMO itch

SHOULD I PLAY MOONLIGHT BLADE? Eh, you could do worse, but you could also probably do better. If you’re desperate for a power-grind, free-to-play MMO to play on your phone, Moonlight Blade is a totally solid if unimpressive option. With a setting in historical China and a focus that expands beyond just combat, this is much better than other recent mobile MMOs, but it’s not likely to keep you engaged long-term unless your phone is your only gaming platform.

Note: These are my thoughts on this game, do not treat it as fact if you play the game. Likes: The story although convoluted, is impactful around all of the unnecessary text. 2. The combat isn't in depth, which would be strange for a tower defense game. 3. Although it's not in-depth, hoh boy, this game can be DIFFICULT. 4. It's a strategy game for the most part, which is very stimulating for those looking for a mental challenge, such as myself. 5. The characters look great! That's without them being sexualized like so many characters, male and female. 6. The music is superb! I love the default lobby music, it's just so relaxing. 7. A massive variety of characters with different skills and attack patterns, etc, make the game fun despite it being a tower defense game. 8. The game itself looks great! 9. The base function means that f2p players are not screwed, but it may take a while to progress. 10. The proxy annihilation cards make Orundum farming so much quicker! 12. It doesn't seem like that it places massive reliance on stats, I mean I generally can do levels below the recommended operator level. 13. The difficulty is something I seek, because of the feeling of accomplishing a challenge that I thought wasn't possible. 14. The challenge mode addition means that you can play through the game again upon completion but it will be even more difficult in the long run. Dislikes: No multi-farm mechanic. 2. Auto deploy is not always consistent. 3. You can only double the combat speed, which is the default speed in auto deploy, would like it if it could be faster. 4. No way as far as I have been able to see in which you can change your name more than once without spending money. Now, a few important notes/tips: This is a tower defense game, so if that's not your thing, you probably won't enjoy this. 2. The gameplay can indeed be grueling, so if you're easily discouraged, I encourage you to not give up. 3. Resources are rather scarce, especially the only currency which can buy skins, (originate prime) so use sparingly. 4. Five things you will have to learn: Order of deployment, location of deployment, timing of deployment and skills being activated, and team synergy (these five things are often necessary together). 5. Do not convert "originite prime" to "Orundum" or buy furniture with "originite prime" if you care about buying skins for operators. Finally, the story is dark, so it's not for the faint of heart. Also, I am in episode 2, as of the time I posted this review, so I haven't made it very far, and thus, I may update this as time goes on.

This creepy platformer just might give you nightmares

SHOULD I PLAY UGLY? Give Ugly a go if you’re into platformers, puzzlers, or dark fairy-tale worlds. Even though controlling two characters simultaneously in a mirrored world can be incredibly disorienting, Ugly’s puzzle mechanics are truly unique and blend perfectly with the game’s dark atmosphere. And though I wouldn't classify Ugly as horror, there were still plenty of twisted memories to unlock that genuinely gave me the creeps.

Final Fantasy XVI is everything a Final Fantasy game needs to be - Final Fantasy XVI Review

Since it arrived last month—heck, even since it was first revealed way back in 2020—one of the most oft-repeated opinions about Final Fantasy XVI has been that it doesn’t feel like a Final Fantasy game. After spending eighty hours with this latest entry in one of gaming’s biggest franchises, I can finally definitively respond to that opinion: Yes, Final Fantasy XVI doesn’t feel like a Final Fantasy

WHY CAN'T OTHER BIG DEVELOPERS UNDERSTAND THIS?

I'd heard of the series, as well as other well-known JRPG games, but I never bothered to look into it because I wasn't very interested in playing non-PC games at the time. It's direct and to the point, doesn't hold back monetarily, and comes from a well-known developer for a Gacha which for some people may come as a red flag, but hold on. It hits every note, even nostalgia for past games I haven't played in over a decade that being

A cyberpunk mystery with Danganronpa vibes - Master Detective Archives: Rain Code Quick Review

PLAY IT OR SKIP IT? Play it, especially if you’re a fan of Danganronpa or the Ace Attorney games. Master Detective Archives: Rain Code is a near-perfect combination of old-school mystery solving and fantasy storytelling. You play as Yuma Kokohead, a detective who’s lost his memory after striking a deal with a mischievous spirit named Shinigami. Thanks to his spirit pact, Yuma can transform unsolved mysteries into labyrinths that will guide him towards the truth of any case. This unique approach to mystery-solving makes every investigation feel fresh and dynamic. Whether I was solving puzzles, talking to witnesses, or searching for clues, I felt invested in each case I tried to crack. A lot of games have tried to imitate

If you want a REAL generous mobile game, give this game a try!

I've seen plenty of other posts with the "Themostgenerousgacha" hashish tag, mentioning games like Blue Archive, Punishing Gray Raven, Demian Saga, etc. and I won't deny that those games are generous. They really are, but generous is all they are. If you want a SUPER GENEROUS, entirely free to play game with NOTHING locked behind a paywall, then you have to give Romancing SaGa Re;univerSe a try! Some of you who have played this game before will say that this game has paid gacha currency, and yes, that's true, but it's practically the same as the free gacha currency. Why, you ask? Well, it's quite simple, but first, I have to mention that, in RSRS, banners ALWAYS come out in pairs: One free banner and one paid banner.

The Power of Narrative (Story) Transforming Games and Connecting Players

Games are like exciting adventures, with cool graphics and fun ways to play. But don't forget about the story – it's like the backbone of the adventure. A good story in a game can make you feel like you're really part of the action, not just watching. Imagine being taken to different worlds when you play a game. A good story does that – it lets you escape from real life for a bit. When the story is mixed well into the game, you feel like you're not just watching; you're in control, making choices, and caring about what happens.

Watch out, Final Fantasy! Granblue Fantasy is officially the hottest new JRPG franchise on the block

SHOULD I PLAY GRANBLUE FANTASY: RELINK? Absolutely check out Granblue Fantasy: Relink if you even remotely enjoy Japanese-style RPGs or just games with great action RPG combat systems. As a spin-off of the Granblue Fantasy mobile game that’s been running for almost a decade now, getting thrown right into the middle of this story might feel a little confusing at first. But developer Cygames uses this history to its advantage, presenting a world that feels complex and interesting to explore. Plus it’s populated by massive, godlike monsters in need of being hacked and slashed to death. Bonus!

MINDS BENEATH US REVIEW - A THRILLER OF MORAL CHOICES!

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.

Ubisoft resurrects Prince of Persia in a fantastic new Metroidvania form

SHOULD I PLAY PRINCE OF PERSIA: THE LOST CROWN? Yes! As a long-time fan of the Prince of Persia franchise, I was excited to see it coming back, but even gamers who are totally unfamiliar with previous games should be able to find plenty to love in Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown. This reboot puts players into the role of Sargon, a warrior of Persia who must venture into the dangerous region of Mount Qaf after the prince is kidnapped. In gameplay terms, that means exploring a fascinating region in the form of a tightly designed 2D Metroidvania-style adventure.

A new RPG from the creators of This War of Mine takes to the magical streets of 20th century Poland

Role-playing video games have taken us on adventures to all sorts of strange locales: grand fantasy landscapes, epic sci-fi universes, sweeping vistas occupied by gods, and otherworldly realms haunted by the dead. However, we've never been swept off to a setting quite like that of The Thaumaturge. That's because this RPG takes place in Warsaw, Poland in the early 20th century—albeit a slightly fantastical version of Warsaw.
