It’s always cool to watch as an idea that starts small is able to grow an become a grander thing than what was originally conceived. Indivisible is a game that has been anticipated for quite a while now, especially for the folks that helped by…

Living life as a hardcore gamer is great but from time to time it has its drawbacks. When you keep your eyes on multiple game releases and a bunch come out relatively close to one another, you do not get the time you would like…
Is there anything more juvenile than toilet humour? You know what I am talking about, especially if you’re a parent of a pre-teen boy (God help me…). We are talking about all the puke, pee and poop jokes that generally make people roll their eyes…
There is no denying that I have a secret love for brick breaker type games and all my old cell phones are inclined to agree. Ever since I got my first cell phone, a Kyocera brick, back in 2003 I have purchased/downloaded a variation of…
I don’t know what it is about horror games that draw me to them like a drunk guy to a taco bell at 2 am. I think it comes from a deep-seated feeling that I love the idea of getting scared by entertainment. The problem…
I remember when I was about 5 years old, my mom was working as a DJ late into the night and my Dad was “watching” my brother and I. He was a couple of beers in, so any kind of logic was out the door.…
I don’t know what it is about the horror genre that people, such as myself, love so much. The very idea that we go into a piece of entertainment with the sole purpose of letting it scare the bejesus out of us sounds silly, right?…
I was very excited when I saw that Paper Dolls: Original was coming to the PlayStation 4. It originally released as a VR title on both the PC and PSVR headsets last year, albeit with a few changes to make it more suitable for VR.…
Fighting games have been a large part of my gaming DNA for many years. I often cite Super Street Fighter as the game that transitioned me from a casual gamer to hardcore as I would come home from school and practice for countless hours. This…
There are not many settings more mysterious than that of Noir. In the world of Dollhouse, not only will you be tasked with deciphering fact from fiction, but you also must do it in the utmost secrecy as you see yourself as a Detective tasked…
It’s been fourteen years since the original release of Resident Evil 4 for the Nintendo Gamecube, yet when people talk about the game you can see the glint in their eyes as they recall the first time they played this epic adventure. It was such…
Every 100 years Dracula comes back to life and is stronger than ever before, forcing mankind to call upon a saviour to save the day. The Belmont Clan are always up for a challenge as they are usually the first in line to help out.…
I am a massive fan of bringing back ideas from games of the past that are no longer around. Marble it Up! instantly caught my eye as it reminded me of one of my favourite games to play on the Nintendo Gamecube, Super Monkey Ball.…
Between 2017 and 2018 I think we heard the words “Battle Royale” tossed around a LOT. I believe it’s safe to say that in the beginning, it was fun to hear about developers giving their games the battle royale treatment, yet after a while, it…
Good luck convincing me that there is a tougher sport out there than hockey. I may not be able to boast about being a Canadian, but I’ve always been a stone’s throw away from Canada as I lived in Alaska at one point in my…
There’s not much you can do to prepare yourself for the experience that you will have the first time you play Path to Mnemosyne. It’s a unique game that will take you on a psychedelic adventure through an unnamed patient’s troubled psyche; You’ll even be…
I don’t really have fond memories of every game series from my youth. It’s not to say that the games were bad, but I just don’t think about The Adventures of Lolo, Kid Icarus or Ninja Gaiden anymore as they hold no nostalgic draw to…
Normally I start all my reviews with some sort of backstory or other witty banter, but this time things are very different. Up until about a year or two ago, I wouldn’t touch Indies with a 12-foot barge pole, but I have discovered the error…
Ah yes, another day another game that emulates the games of the 1990s. Now don’t take that the wrong way, as a gamer that was moulded by the platformers from that time frame, it’s almost as if Rad Rodgers was made for my generation. Although…
After 9 years and multiple delays, the world is finally able to play Crackdown 3. Now, I’m no stranger to these sandbox games; As a young impressionable teenager, I played Grand Theft Auto 3 and fell in love with the open world formula. Fast Forward…
Point and Click adventure games are one of those types of games that we don’t quite see enough of, in my honest opinion. I’ll never forget my first Point and Click style game, 1997’s ‘Yoda Stories’. Obviously, that had more of an action-adventure feel to…
Another day, another remaster of a game from console generations long past. I imagine it must be pretty manic over at THQ Nordic, with their recent influx of buying old IPs and acquiring new licences, I presume they’re always getting emails from fans asking when…
I’m deathly afraid to go skiing or snowboarding. I can’t snowboard because I have the balance of an alcoholic on a Friday night at 2 am and I have been skiing as part of a field trip when I was in 5th grade and it…
The year is 1996 and yours truly is but a young pup of 11 years old (but almost 12!) and ready to play any game you throw at me. My older brother, 13 at the time, has friends that also own a PlayStation and a…
Put your hardhat on and get ready to channel your inner Frank Lloyd Wright as BoomBit games are here with their console adaptation of their popular Mobile game, Build a Bridge! As with a few other games currently available on various platforms, we get to live out…
Ah yes, the year is 1983 and the world is a slightly better place. Gaming is on the cusp of something massive with the release of the Nintendo Entertainment System. We do not see them as much as we used to, but back in the…
We live in a really cool time with video games. We are now seeing games that are so lifelike that, to the untrained eye, games can be sometimes mistaken for real-life. When you think of the fact that video games have not been technically around…
It’s hard to believe that Dynasty Warriors is a series which is now over twenty years old. Sure, that could be a testament to the series and how well it has done, or that I am just old. Spoilers, I am just old AND the…
I’m almost certain that I’m on record saying I’m not the biggest fan of ‘Roguelike’ games. I have a hard time enjoying a game in which I know that the core gameplay is that I will die, a whole lot, and have to re-start from…
Breakfast is the best meal of the day PERIOD. I will never say no to a fried egg sandwich with pepper jack cheese, maple sausage and on a toasted Everything Bagel with cream cheese. They say that breakfast is also the most important part of…
I’m not a fan of camping. My list of strengths doesn’t include the ability to hunt, fish or other essential survival techniques. So, if I were to take on the role of “The Forest” protagonist Eric LeBlanc, I would last a maximum of 24 hours.…
Blizzard Entertainment is one of those companies that just always get it ‘right’. Between every one of their franchises, they are constantly putting out games which basically prints money for them! Over the past few years, they have seen great success with Overwatch and games…
“What would you do if today is your last day to live?” I think that’s the question that we find ourselves asking as we progress through this thing we call life. The idea of death is terrifying for some, “What’s after this?”, “Will My family…
They say to never judge a book by its cover, and that is exactly what I did when I saw the Yomawari games for the first time. On their exterior, Yomawari Night Alone and Midnight Shadows look cute. I even thought to myself, “How can…

Spectrum is a game developed by 3D Avenue that wears its minimalist design like a badge of honour. It originally came out in 2015 on iOS and Android devices to generally positive reviews. One year later, it would appear on Steam and now it’s been…
Marvel’s Spider-Man might possibly be one of the greatest superhero video-games ever made.
