Golden Sun: The Lost Age  |
Rating of: 4/5
|
|
Engaging sequel to an enjoyable RPG, The Lost Age improves on the original in pretty much every way. Not a huge leap forward but a treat for fans of the original. |

| Rayman 3 |
Rating of: 3/5
|
|
More pretty and pretty generic platforming. Once again, exploring to find hidden secrets and rewards is fun. But being forced to replay levels over and over until you find everything takes the joy out of it somewhat. |

A Modern Legend
|
|
“Immortals: Fenyx Rising” (“IFR”) initially made its appearance at E3 2019 under the much-less vomit-inducing title, “Gods & Monsters.” From its first cinematic teaser, I had a feeling this new IP would push my buttons in all the right ways. Combine that solid first impression with my glowing opinion of Ubisoft Sandbox games after playing “Assassin’s Creed: Odyssey” and the earl... |

Old West and RPG Tropes Makes for a Good Couple
|
|
It's always a gamble when you deal with Kickstarter. So many tales of vaporware, broken promises or just outright crooks have turned the once-promising landscape of supporting a hidden gem into a minefield of "buyer beware". Yet not every story ends in disappointment and Boot Hill Heroes (along with its sequel Boot Hill Bounties - and perhaps more titles in the future) is a shining example of wha... |

Rating of: 4/5

And Now for the Main Course…
|
|
“Boot Hill Bounties” (“BHB”) is the second episode in the throwback, 16-bit style, Wild West RPG by Kickstarted Indie developer, Experimental Gamer. Released three years after its predecessor/part-one, “Boot Hill Heroes,” “BHB” picks up immediately where the first game left off. Unfortunately, Chris and I weren’t able to pickup where we left off due to a number of interruptions ... |

Use It Before You Lose It
|
|
Remedy Entertainment has dipped their toe into a lot of genres but are known mainly for two major series: Alan Wake and Max Payne. Control is tangentially related to Wake's story (in fact an entire DLC is dedicated to this link) but owes most of its influence from the SCP Foundation - a community wiki that describes various paranormal, supernatural, and other mysterious phenomena that often take... |

Balance, Schmalance
|
|
Way back in 2016, I got all excited when Paizo – the tabletop RPG publishing company that started as a third-party contractor for Wizards of the Coast, but managed to take the Open Gaming License and make a real name for themselves with the Pathfinder Core Rulebook – announced that they were working with a videogame developer to create a series of tabletop-to-cRPG conversions for the Pathfind... |

Monster Hunting for Fun and Profit
|
|
I've been a fan of Diablo and its loot and shoot hack n slash style of gameplay since my college days (re: long time ago) and anytime the crew decides to pick one of these top-down Diablo clones, I'm all for it, even if most turn out to be... lesser fun. Victor Vran is stuck right in the middle of the pack - not amazing but not a total waste, it definitely has its own style and flavor and even me... |
