Review: Shantae and the Pirate’s Curse
Shantae is kind of like a Saturday morning cartoon, you always return to familiar characters up to similar antics and you always roughly know what to expect from the plot. Except in the case of Shantae this show tends to come on every...
Review: Super Smash Bros
A new generation of Nintendo consoles has graced our lives, and as of 1999 that means we're due for a new Smash Bros. title. Most players are likely already familiar with the party fighting game that mixes up dozens of famous faces from...
Review: Screencheat
We all knew that asshole, the one who would constantly be eyeballing your screen in Goldeneye. Maybe you were that asshole, if so Australian based studio Samurai Punk has just the game for you. Screencheat is a pretty standard...

Review: Shovel Knight
What a pleasant surprise Shovel Knight was. I had actually never heard of the game or its wildly successful Kickstarter origins when I purchased it. I just saw a knight with a shovel getting lots of positive posts on the Miiverse and...
Review: Chariot
The king is dead. And now as his daughter, it's naturally your responsibility to lug his corpse to its final resting place. Perhaps not the plot one would expect from a game that looks like Frima Studios' somewhat cartoony Chariot. What...
