Boot Hill Blaster is just one such title which has just been released for Windows, Macintosh and Linux. What we have here is an […]

Volgarr the Viking Ported to Sega Dreamcast, Released for Free with Permission
September 27th, 2015 Carl Williams 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? I mention those two classics because it is quite clear that Volgarr the Viking is taking, at least, visual […]

Classic Nonogram Game PixlCross Reminds us of Mario’s Picross on Wii U and Computers
August 27th, 2015 Carl Williams Way back on the Game Boy, around 20 years ago, Nintendo took another chance with their leading star (back then it was normal). Nonogram’s, aka Hanjie Picross and Griddlers, are logic puzzles that create a simple image (recent variations have brought this type of game into the 3rd dimension). Mario’s Picross is probably the most […]

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 […]

Dollhouse coming to the Playstation 4, PC, Mac and Linux, Horror Fans Prepare
August 13th, 2015 Carl Williams Horror. This is a genre that has not exactly been able to take off with gaming. Sure, titles like Resident Evil are promoted as “survival horror” but there is not much “horror” to be had in that whole series (the dogs is one of the few scare moments I remember). Horror games are in a […]

The team behind Slain have since then put the game on Kickstarter and just recently successfully passed their minimum goal. Now Slain will finish its Kickstarter run in about 18 days so there is plenty of time to […]

November 9th, 2014 Carl Williams I remember the first time I fired up Shadow of the Colossus, I was torn between purchasing SoC or God of War, it was an amazing experience running across that first boss.
