Volgarr the Viking is a newer 2D side scrolling action adventure for Microsoft’s Xbox and Steam, well it was released almost a year ago but that is still newer than Rygar or Ghouls n Ghosts, right?

Curses ‘N Chaos Review, See How the Windows Version Stands Up to Heritage
August 18th, 2015
Carl Williams Before I start this review, I have to be clear that Curses ‘N Chaos is not a Ghouls ‘n Ghosts ripoff in any way. Sure, both use pixels to convey their charms and a few enemies are shared between the games but that is about the end of the similarities. Curses ‘N Chaos is quite […]
