No Straight Roads is a Jolt of Goofy Rock Energy with Surprising Heart – REVIEW (PS4)
As prone to flirt with other genres of music as I am, strip me to my core and you’ll find rock and roll in my DNA; Pearl Jam, Garbage, Green Day and Tool coursing through the blood I’ve happily shed in deference to the pit and the stage. So you’ll have to trust me when…
Potata: Fairy Flower never blossoms – Review
Poh-tay-tah, poh-tah-tah… No matter how you pronounce Potata: Fairy Flower it’s still a generic bore; a side-scrolling fantasy adventure that barely distinguishes itself from the bargain bin pack. A touch of Celtic fairy charm, a few challenging platforming sections, some genuinely clever usage of items, and smart environmental puzzles are quickly overshadowed by shoddy animation,…
Paper Beast is Astounding – Review (PSVR)
Paper Beast is a must play for any owner of PSVR, young or old. In many ways it fulfills the early promise of the medium by creating a level of player immersion that blurs the line between the world behind the screen, and the one outside it.
Gestalt: Steam & Cinder is A LOT More than a Castlevania Clone – PAX East 2020 Preview
At a glance, Gestalt: Steam & Cinder appears to be similar to classic 2D Castlevania in the mode of Symphony of the Night or Aria of Sorrow.

No Straight Roads… Rocks, Rolls – PAX East 2020 Preview
No Straight Roads, the candy colored battle of the bands that pits the raw, rough textures of rock and roll against the precision digital beats of EDM music, is, surprisingly, All straight roads. What I played at PAX East last week (which seemed to cover the same ground as the Paris Games Week demo did…
Kawaii Co-Op Chaos in KeyWe – Pax East 2020 Preview
The Jeffs and the Debras of the world get no respect. They put in three times the effort of the average postal worker, frantically leaping from key to key in tandem (sometimes while balancing on rotating wheels) to spell out nonsense telegrams for the ungrateful public yet still everyone assumes they’re nothing but adorable, ambling balls…

Broken Homes and Rules Define Life is Strange 2’s compelling 2nd Episode – Review
Note: Hi all, Boo here filling in for Phil (Phil-ing in?) with a review of this latest installment of Life is Strange. I can only talk about this game from the perspective of my play-through which may differ drastically from yours. My thought is, you wouldn’t be reading this if you weren’t already fully invested…
The Missing is a Perfect Marriage of Gameplay and Theme
Sometimes the “game” part of a game is just that, a game. How you jump, how you run, the goons you shank – it’s meant to be fun, thrilling, challenging, and often invokes the genre of the storytelling. In the end, there’s no metaphor to be found behind the mechanics at work. Bullet time isn’t…
