The best (and best-looking) Metroidvania since Hollow Knight - Afterimage Quick Review

PLAY IT OR SKIP IT? If you’ve got any appreciation for the Metroidvania style of game at all, then you owe it to yourself to play Afterimage. Coming off a successful Kickstarter campaign just a year ago, developer Aurogon Shanghai has released the next masterpiece in a masterpiece-heavy genre. With tight controls, compelling progression and exploration, and especially a stunning hand-drawn art style, Afterimage pays homage to the classics while also undeniably forging its own strong identity via a fascinating and diverse fantasy world. It’s really good.

ANIMAL WELL - A SURREAL & COMPACT PLATFORMER

VideoGameDunky is someone I can truly relate to; he began his career as a League of Legends content creator and streamer before transitioning to a satirical approach to video game reviews, to the point where half of the community around him felt serious and the other half felt like memes, making it difficult to differentiate from whether his reviews were genuine or just him being overly silly with jokes and humor.

"Reverse : 1999" resembling an Era that rewinds as you move a step forward for the worse unknown .

As of the current moment, I believe the game is yet to unfold more, to be reviewed "thoroughly" but even so, reversal of time isn't exactly an unfamiliar notion to me like many of those who hold science fiction at a high estimation but I don't seem to recall having any practical experiences of the following concept, so I was quite enthusiastic and enticed full of bubbly expectations since the very first time seeing its trailer before pre-registering the game .

Another crappy gacha game tarnishing the legacy of a brilliant anime series

SHOULD I PLAY TOKYO GHOUL: BREAK THE CHAINS? Skip it, unless you’re really, really into Tokyo Ghoul. Tokyo Ghoul: Break the Chains presents the exact same stuff I’ve seen a million times before across the long string of samey mobile gacha games I’ve tried over the years. It doesn’t contain an original idea in its gameplay or design. This lack of originality would make for a boring game no matter what, but it’s especially disappointing given the brilliance of the anime, light novel series, and manga it’s based on.

I think it's probably the best game on android with DC Heroes

Pros Animations and graphics are very neat Map it's huge with a lot of cities We do have a base but it's nice that you can see the characters of your team move around in the city find items on thw road enemies etc When you finish chapter 6 you get Aquaman (5 star) Green lantern and Black adam as well though events With 5% to summon 5 star on motherbox and 1 % on The Bleed it's one of the most generous games

What if Genshin Impact had guns? - Snowbreak: Containment Zone Quick First Impressions

PLAY IT OR SKIP IT? Play it. Snowbreak: Containment Zone is one of the most promising and fun gacha RPGs I’ve played in the past few years, already nearing the quality of Genshin Impact, Wuthering Waves, and Honkai: Star Rail. The game explores a beautiful dystopian world and twists classic fantasy themes by primarily focusing gameplay on fast-paced combat with guns. TIME PLAYED I played Snowbreak: Containment Zone

Stray Gods - A Broadway Style Musical Murder Mystery

Hey folks, thanks for tapping and tuning in as I dive headlong into Summerfall Studios' recently released Visual Novel, Stray Gods - A Musical RPG. And they're not kidding on that front- so bear with me. An Inspired Investigation Stray Gods tells the story of Grace, whose mundane life as a would-be singer is abruptly de-railed due to a chance encounter with Calliope, The Last Muse.  Last, because the old Greek Pantheons are real, and not -quite- as immortal as previously rumoured. A trend which continues to hold true, given Callope's blood winds up literally (but not figuratively) on Graces' hands.

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.

#GamesWithAGreatStory Planescape: Torment

You have never experienced a story like this.    It is a solid old-school RPG in which you wake up in a morgue and with no memory and must uncover your past, the mystery of your immortality and who's trying to kill you, all set in the fantasy planes of AD&D.

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.

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.

VA-11 Hall-A - #GameswithaGreatStory

"Time to mix drinks and change lives." - Jill Stingray VA-11 Hall-A is one of the games I hold dear to my heart. Developed by a Venezuelan indie game studio, Sukeban Games, that was originally started off as a blog for Japanese Pop Culture discussions. In the world of dystopian cyberpunk city-scape, you got to play as Jill Stingray, a bartender at VA-11 Hall-A. It's a very chill and relaxing game, with interesting quirky characters, very engaging dialogs, cool musics, mini games and a couple of unique mechanics here and there.

This horror game set on Mars is giving me Alien vibes in the best way

I hadn't heard much about upcoming horror game Fort Solis until I saw the above trailer, but watch this thing and try not to get hyped. The game takes place on a mysteriously deserted mining base on Mars, and players take on the role of an astronaut named Jake sent to investigate what happened. The trailer leaves it unclear what the actual threat lurking within Fort Solis is, which is great in my opinion. Let me be surprised when I play the actual game! But whatever it is, I'm getting

The Life is Strange devs shift from reality to fantasy - Harmony: The Fall of Reverie Quick Review

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.

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

The drama of pro wrestling meets the adventure of classic JRPGs in WrestleQuest

Wrestling and role-playing might seem like a strange combo for the uninitiated, but these are actually two great tastes that go great together! OH YEAH, BROTHER! If you need proof, just check out WrestleQuest, the colorful new RPG from developer Mega Cat Studios. You can see some footage of WrestleQuest above, but it basically casts players as an action figure going on a journey to become the best of the best through turn-based wrestling matches.
