A janky but charmingly unique MMO take on the zombie apocalypse - Undawn Quick Review

PLAY IT OR SKIP IT? Play it if you’re looking for a more lighthearted, casual-friendly way to pass some time killing the undead, but be prepared to encounter some jank. Undawn is the latest MMO from Level Infinite, the same publisher that brought us Tower of Fantasy, and it shares some similarities with that game...and some big differences. Most notably, Undawn trades in the more traditional mix of fantasy, sci-fi, and anime aesthetics for a modern world that has been wrecked by a zombie apocalypse. This game’s vision of the end of the world is anything but generic, though. Even though some elements are frustrating or underdeveloped, I can’t help but feel charmed by this weird little game.

The "Rise" and Fall of Nintendo's Virtual Boy

In the mid-1990s, Nintendo was riding high on the success of its Game Boy and Super Nintendo Entertainment System (SNES). Looking to continue its streak of innovation, the company introduced the Virtual Boy in 1995. Hyped as the next big leap in gaming technology, the Virtual Boy promised to bring virtual reality into living rooms worldwide. Despite the initial excitement, the Virtual Boy quickly became one of Nintendo’s biggest commercial failures. Here’s a closer look at what went wrong and the few bright spots that emerged from its brief lifespan.

👍 Pros: Fancy, fantastic graphics. Relaxing background music. 60 FPS options. 👎 Cons: İt gives very hard headhache, so you can't play a long time without stopping. 📖 Storyline: You are stuck in an appartment where you are trying to go back to your own time. You need to solve puzzles.

Lisa: the Painful is the weirdest, most heart wrenching RPG you’ll ever play

Lisa: the Painful is an unrelenting expression of the world’s unfairness. It stacks all the odds against you from the very start, and no matter what you do, things won’t always go right. Minor bosses can destroy your team with insta-death moves, permanently killing party members. Resting at a campsite heals your party and removes negative status effects, but it also leaves you vulnerable to kidnapping attempts or poisonous bug bites. It’s a game where you can lose everything in an instant through no fault of your own.

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.

Grind rails and spray graffiti in this Jet Set Radio successor - Bomb Rush Cyberfunk Quick Review

SHOULD I PLAY BOMB RUSH CYBERFUNK? If you’re a fan of Jet Set Radio, Bomb Rush Cyberfunk is a must-play. Developed by indie studio Team Reptile, it’s a near-perfect throwback to Y2K-era gaming. While it’s an undeniable nostalgia bomb, it’s worth playing even if you don’t really remember the Dreamcast games. The stylish cel-shaded graphics, streamlined gameplay, and killer soundtrack are enough to make

Yes, The Legend of Nayuta still looks like a PSP game, but it's definitely worth checking out

SHOULD I PLAY THE LEGEND OF NAYUTA: BOUNDLESS TRAILS? Play it if you’re a fan of Falcom games or old-school JRPGs. The Legend of Nayuta: Boundless Trails was originally released for the PlayStation Portable, so it’s a little rough around the edges, but it’s still very fun. There’s a great mix of action combat, platforming, and slice-of-life gameplay here, along with a charming story. It never reaches the highs of other Falcom series, like the

I See You - Be blind for a day. I See You is a 1-bit survival horror game that where you play as Sean, a blind person who wants to meet his girlfriend, soon to be fiance, Liz. At the start, Sean is on a train. By the time his stop comes, he tells us that he is about to visit his girlfriend who loves him a lot. I fell in love with the dialogue as soon as he said "I can't wait to 'see' her." It was the start of feeling how a blind person views life. There is more in store for us when Sean reaches Liz's home.

WarioWare for the Soul - Kuukiyomi Review

I was an awkward kid. I mean, heck, I’m still awkward now as I’m approaching middle age. But I have all sorts of foggy memories of growing up and encountering scenarios where I completely failed to comprehend what the “right” thing to do was. When everyone stood and clapped at the end of a performance, I was always the last one to figure it out and join in. When my family received bad news, my first instinct was always to crack a joke. Put another way, I was disastrously bad at reading the room.

Bully: Possibly the most forgotten and underrated rockstar game!

Sorry guys I wasn't able to post for a long time because of study pressure and the internet outage. Anyways I'm back. 🎮 Gameplay: This is one of the biggest open world's made by rockstar other than rdr and GTA V. The story mode is also Fantastic. And speaking of storymode, 📖 Storyline: The storyline is good I guess but it feels bland and needs slightly better writing. 🕹️ Controls: The controls are actually great considering how old the game is.

A Sneak Peek @ Killer Frequency

Back Again, with your latest bit of Indie Investigating. This time, it's Team 17 Digital's darkly funny narrative title 'Killer Frequency'- which takes the campy idea of a Slash Plot, and has a good bit of fun with it. Tune In, Check Out, Leave a Not-So-Pretty Corpse While there's plenty of stories in Gallows Creek- none invoke quite as much fear as that of 'The Whistling Man', a serial killer who ran rampant in the 50's, before the police were finally able to put him down.

What if Vampire Survivors had farming and frogs? Pesticide Not Required is my ideal roguelite

SHOULD I PLAY PESTICIDE NOT REQUIRED? Absolutely yes. Pesticide Not Required has everything I could ever want in a Vampire Survivors clone: smooth bullet heaven gameplay, over-the-top power-ups, frogs, farming mechanics, and even a pet capybara to help me care for my plants. I’ve only played the demo, but I’m already head over heels in love with Pesticide Not Required. Unless you totally hate roguelites—or frogs—this is a must play.

CLICKOLDING - WHAT THE HELL DID I JUST WITNESS!?

CLICKOLDING Developer: Strange Scaffold Publisher:  Strange Scaffold Released: July 16th, 2024 Price: $2.99 USD As I prepared to load up the recently released CLICKOLDING, I had a fundamental understanding of what it was all about and what I was getting myself into. This is a play on the concept of being or taking part in the act that is commonly referred to as "cuckolding," but the twist is that it is portrayed in this game as the act of clicking.

If you Like It, Than You Shoulda Put Some Bacon On It - Bacon - The Game Review

I appreciate a good slab of bacon as much as the next person. Well, maybe not as much as the next person. In today’s bacon age, we’ve got bacon-scented candles, bacon deodorant, and even soap that looks and smells like bacon! But if you’ve made it this far into a bacon-themed review, I assume you appreciate this delicious treat too. So I’ll give you what you want and satiate your desire with a few quick bacon facts. Did you know that bacon means meat from the back of an animal? How about that bacon grease was used as glycerin to create canon shells to defeat the nazis in World War II? But most importantly, did you know that there exists a game where your entire goal is to put bacon on all manner of objects? That’s right. I’m talking about

Play a weird western with crazy cultists and one-shot kills - Kill the Crows Quick Review

SHOULD I PLAY KILL THE CROWS? Play it if you’re a fan of top-down shooters or are looking for a simple, old-school game you can play in short bursts. Kill the Crows is a western about a lone gunslinger on a quest for revenge. There are no bullet sponges here; players, enemies, and even bosses can be felled by a single bullet, and just one mistake can bring a run to an end. At first, this felt frustrating, but once I got into the swing of things, racking up one-shot kills was incredibly satisfying.ᅠ

Here is a bacon 🥓 Please put it on a game review

Putting a bacon on top of a game review. What? Seriously? Why? Well, because it is fun... See? Effortlessly, satisfying and fun. People talk about burnout all the time. It's a state of feeling exhausted and drained, physically and emotionally, which is often related to stress at work. I used to turn to video games when I feel unmotivated or just to kill time, but now I find that even playing games can be stressful.

This game is unplayable! Volcano Girl is a terrible mobile port of an awesome game

SHOULD I PLAY VOLCANO GIRL? Skip it. Volcano Girl is apparently the mobile version of Volcano Princess, a management sim about raising a young daughter to adulthood. I’ve spent a lot of time with the PC version, and the concept behind it is a lot of fun, but unfortunately, Volcano Girl is barely playable on mobile devices. The touch controls are frequently unresponsive, and some in-game commands can’t actually be completed without a mouse and keyboard. Even worse, the game doesn’t seem to be able to load an event that takes place near the end of the childhood stage, which brings all progress to halt.

This game allows you to test your ability to read situations

Hey you! You are now the red one. What would you do next? If you read the situation correctly, you will probably choose to squat, like everyone else does. If you can't read it right, don't worry, we have a game to test your ability to read situations! Kuukiyomi, or 空気読み, is a Japanese slang, which means "read the air", if you translate it literally. In English, it means something like "read the situation".

The 10 best creations in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom (so far)

I adore so many things about The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom—from its sprawling open world to its gorgeous soundtrack—but the best part of the game is its building mechanics. Whether I’m assembling a homemade hovercraft or gluing a sword to a sword, I’m always trying to come up with new ways to take on enemies or explore. I’m proud of my inventions, but some Zelda players have come up with creations far beyond anything I could imagine. These players haven’t just come up with cool builds; they’ve made mind-blowing contraptions that completely change the scope of the game. These are ten of the best creations I’ve seen in Tears of the Kingdom so far.
