This Fallout-style shooter has potential but a long way to go - Ashfall Quick First Impressions

PLAY IT OR SKIP IT? Skip it for now, but it may be worth revisiting once it hits full release. Ashfall is a shooter MMORPG that reminds me of Fallout’s post-apocalyptic world and monsters. Despite its strong visual style and interesting story, Ashfall doesn’t manage to live up to its very lofty inspirations—at least not yet, in its beta test form. This game has all the potential in the world to grow into something enjoyable in the future, but its combat system and gameplay will need a lot of improvement before that happens.

The masters of horror deliver a fresh spin on the Amnesia formula - Amnesia: The Bunker Quick Review

PLAY IT OR SKIP IT? Play it, unless you’re too scared. Like previous releases from developer Frictional Games, Amnesia: The Bunker is not for the faint of heart. Some fans worried about the announcement of this fourth game in the Amnesia series, particularly when it was revealed that it would be the first game in the franchise to give players a weapon. Those fears were misplaced, though; the limited ammunition and other defensive options in

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

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.

The new Sword Art Online game captures what’s great about this series - but it looks terrible

SHOULD I PLAY SWORD ART ONLINE LAST RECOLLECTION? Play it, especially if you’re a fan of the Sword Art Online anime/manga/light novel series. Sword Art Online: Last Recollection is an action RPG set during the third season of the anime. It’s a great representation of the series, but it suffers in a few ways mostly tied to its presentation: ugly visuals, poor animation, and delayed actions. I’d still recommend it to fans of the series, though, who’ll find plenty to enjoy here.

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

Would you kill a princess to save the world? Slay the Princess is game about impossible choices

SHOULD I PLAY SLAY THE PRINCESS? If you have even a passing interest in choice-based games, Slay the Princess is a must-play. When the game begins, you’re on a path towards a cabin hidden deep in the woods. When you reach that cabin, you’ll find a princess, and when you meet her, a mysterious voice tells you that she’s destined to end the world. Will you slay her, or will you save her? It’s a simple enough question, but somehow, the game stretches it to endless possibilities. What happens if you start to save her, but change your mind? What if you don’t go to the cabin at all?

This mix of Dungeons & Dragons and gacha is like a much better Raid: Shadow Legends

I've probably played and reviewed at least two or three dozen different gacha games at this point, but every once in a while I still manage to be really surprised and impressed by one. Dragonheir: Silent Gods is one of the most immediately intriguing and captivating gacha games I've played in ages, and one that I'm definitely planning to stick with. The first thing to know about Dragonheir is that every part of it is openly inspired by tabletop RPGs like Dungeons & Dragons. In fact, the PC version of the game has even done an official collaboration with D&D! In gameplay that terms, that means characters inspired by classic western fantasy, challenging tactical battles, and

Play as a pigeon doctor in this cozy slice-of-life game - Fall of Porcupine Quick Review

PLAY IT OR SKIP IT? Play it, especially if you’re in the mood to get lost in a great story. I’d describe Fall of Porcupine as a cozy game, but there’s an underlying darkness to its narrative that gives its events a real sense of weight. You play as Finley, a small-town doctor who’s returning to work after an on-the-job injury. Finley clearly loves the town of Porcupine and its residents, but he has some concerns about St. Ursula’s, the hospital he works at. There’s a free demo that serves as a prologue to the main story, and I’d definitely recommend checking it out if you’re interested in the game.

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.

Brown Dust 2 is a gacha love letter to classic JRPGs

I'm totally unfamiliar with the original Brown Dust, but Brown Dust 2 has almost immediately and completely won me over as my favorite gacha game I've played since last year's Octopath Traveler: Champions of the Continent. Like that game, Brown Dust 2 uses absolutely gorgeous hi-res pixel art and storytelling that feels like it comes from the Super Nintendo era of classic Japanese role-playing games.

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.

#GameswithaGreatStory

I want to nominate this game. This game was recently launched globally in the month of May, 2022. Since then many events and updates were held. The story, for once, is decent, with an exceptional plot of once sacrifice for her kingdom in hopes that it will bloom again somewhere, as she left it's last hope in our(protagonist) hands. As the story progresses with various side missions, we remove curtains from various dark works of evil forces that prevents us from saving the world.

Punishing: Gray Raven The story is about a post-apocalyptic world where technology is advance enough to transfer human consciousness to an advance robot, and they use this advancements to fight a virus who's goal is to wipe humanity. The story telling is very detailed, in a way that makes you imagine a scene based on the words displayed. The characters are well developed as all of them have backgrounds, and all of it correlates to each other and to the whole lore. This game also makes stories for minor characters which the significance is lower than an npc to set the foundation and atmosphere of the lore, this way of storytelling really makes the story profound. Each of this minor stories aren't irrelevant as they further describe the universe this game takes place.

El Paso, Elsewhere is like Max Payne mixed with Blade, and it’s must-play for shooter fans

SHOULD I PLAY EL PASO, ELSEWHERE Uh, yeah, this game absolutely rules. El Paso, Elsewhere blends the intense shooting and slow-mo powers of Max Payne with the supernatural vampire drama of something like Blade or Buffy the Vampire Slayer. That mixture pays off with an action-packed adventure through the underworld and a noir-tinged story that had me rolling with laughter but still managed to have some emotional depth as well. It’s one of my surprise favorites of 2023.
