    I have yet to play The Stanley Parable – something I will soon rectify as I just picked it up (along with The Beginner’s Guide) in the Steam winter sale – but I’ve been following the launch of this new Crows Crows Crows studio, and finally got around to playing that free short game they’ve…

    A cyberpunk graphic text adventure game? Sounds good to me. I just started playing it, and I’m already digging the story and atmosphere. I’m still only about an hour in, but I like that I’m investigating a mystery, and I’m really curious to see where this is all going to go. You can grab it…

    I really quite enjoyed playing through this. It’s a game, yes, but it’s probably best if you think of it more as a piece of interactive narration, as you are not really left to do any decision-making, simply progressing through the story – which does involve playing through a few MMO-like encounters, but the point…

    With everyone going on about how this is apparently the second coming in the form of a game, I figured I had to jump in. I’ve put in a couple of hours, and I do really like the fantastic dialogue and characterizations, but man, the “combat” system (I put this in quotes because I’m playing the…

    This is an interesting game, and I’m not quite sure how to describe it. I guess you could start by saying it’s a god game, as you are building a world, but then it also feels like a puzzle game in that when you get new pieces to add to your world, you have to…

    I’ve only played a bit so far, but this is such an interesting game. You play by accessing video recordings of a woman being interviewed/interrogated in regards to a crime, and based on that you need to figure out what really happened. Nice to see a game that incorporates live-action, and it not feeling cheesy.

    Even though I was very much interested in playing this game, I hadn’t picked it up upon release, mostly because I don’t really play games on my Mac much (I’m truly a console/portables/iPad gamer). But seeing this announcement from Tale of Tales today, about the poor sales of Sunset and how it has made them…

    It’s no secret that I love board games, and so when I first heard about this game – when it was going through its Kickstarter campaign – I was pretty excited about what it was promising: a beautiful digital board game experience that marries the best of physical board games and digital games. It came…
