  • Kirby and the Rainbow Curse

    ā€”

    ,

    Up until this week, I had never played a Kirby game. For some reason itā€™s just one those series that passed me by, and Iā€™m not quite sure why. I decided to give Kirby and the Rainbow Curse a try – I know it doesnā€™t really play like a typical Kirby game, but Iā€™d been…

  • The Mighty No. 9

    ā€”

    ,

    Considering the, well, letā€™s just be gentle here and sayĀ ā€œdifficult receptionā€ this game has gotten immediately upon release, I went in not expecting much (I was a backer, and so got my copy for PS4). I havenā€™t played that much yet, maybe an hour or so, and what Iā€™m finding is that I donā€™t find…

  • Doom (Demo)

    ā€”

    ,

    Iā€™ve been wanting to play the new Doom game ever since it came out – and the universal praise the game has gotten since its release makes me want to play it that much more. Iā€™ve got so many games on my plate right now that I couldnā€™t justify buying it, but was glad that…

  • Resident Evil VII (Demo)

    ā€”

    ,

    Iā€™d never describe myself a fan of the series, but I have spent time playing every game (except the 6th one), although I donā€™t think Iā€™ve ever finished one – and my favorite of all of them was Code Veronica on the Dreamcast. I was curious to check out the demo that was released this…

  • iA Iconic

    Space Invaders with a typographic twist. This is a free game that was released by design studio iA (the company behind the iA Writer app) and visually itā€™s a beautiful thing to take in, withĀ ā€œInvadersā€ taking the form of icons, and a great soundtrack as well. Where it loses me a bit is in the…

  • Star Fox Guard

    ā€”

    ,

    Along with Star Fox Zero I also tried playing Star Fox Guard, and again, it just wasnā€™t for me. Itā€™s a neat idea for a game, and itā€™s fun that itā€™s set in the Star Fox universe (with those characters), but the game itself was just stressful for me, constantly touching the screens and then…

  • Star Fox Zero

    ā€”

    ,

    I should start by saying that Iā€™ve never really been that big a fan of Star Fox games, and have only played (and not to completion) the Super Nintendo and Nintendo 64 releases. But despite the mixed reviews, I was still curious to try this out. Iā€™m afraid I didnā€™t have a lot of fun…

  • Pathfinder Adventures

    ā€”

    ,

    Iā€™ve been wanting this card game for ages, but I never picked it up because itā€™s pricey, especially when I was in Tokyo and looking at import prices. Thatā€™s why I was pretty excited when I found out that they were planning on making an iOS version (and I think itā€™s also on Android and…
