All reviewsEternal Darkness: Sanity's Requiem2002
3 out of 5 starsI came into Eternal Darkness: Sanity's Requiem with some high expectations. I had been hearing a lot of good things about the game. It ranks highly on multiple "best of the GameCube " lists, so I was ready for an experience. That's one thing that Eternal Darkness delivers. An "experience." I just didn't find it as positive as others, and I attribute many of my issues with the game to dated controls and mechanics.…
Physics based platforming in style
4 out of 5 starsRochard is a game that flew directly over my head when it was first released last September. I typically try and stay pretty up-to-date on indie game releases and reviews, yet somehow I completely missed this game. Rochard has definitely not received the praise it deserves. The game has solid puzzles, personality, and some great mechanics that come together as a very appealing package. The game stars John Rochard…
Smooth, innovative, unique
5 out of 5 starsThe fourth game from Radiangames, Fluid is one of the best (and most unique so far). All three of the previous Radiangames have been related to shooting in some form, but Fluid is more akin to Pac-Man, and is even categorized as a "racing" game on the Xbox Live Marketplace. Fluid is a difficult game to categorize; it is very unique, and retains the inherent quality present in every Radiangame to this point. Gameplay…
Castlevania: Harmony of Despair2010
4 out of 5 starsIt's difficult to label Harmony of Despair a Castlevania game. Sure, you have the dark setting, you have Death, Dracula, and your whole posse of vampire hunters are there, but the game lacks the traditional Metroidvania formula found in just about every main Castlevania game after Castlevania II. What at first glance appears to be a dirty way for Konami to make money by reusing assets is, in reality, a relatively…

All articlesBundle Backlog - Pid and Little Inferno
May 30, 2013
Bundles : Indie Game Stand and Humble Indie Bundle 8 Pid Pid is a puzzle platformer, one of many in the indie landscape. This game's gimmick is a gravity manipulating light beam. The game's protagonist, a young boy named Kurt, can toss a ball of light onto surfaces, which creates a narrow beam that drags objects (and Kurt) in whatever direction it is facing. Kurt can use this to cross gaps, mov...
Bundle Backlog - Thirty Flights of Loving and Dawning
Apr 13, 2013
Bundles : Humble Bundle Weekly ( Blendo Games ) and Groupees Build a Bundle 5 Thirty Flights of Loving I'm not sure why I was even tempted to play this game. I've heard comparisons to Dear Esther , which is a game I did not enjoy, and I'm not usually a fan of abstract, experimental games, but I still felt like giving this a shot. So it was a good thing it showed up in this week's Humble Bundle...
Bundle Backlog - Storm in a Teacup and Offspring Fling
Apr 8, 2013
Bundles : Groupees Build a Bundle 5 and Humble Indie Bundle 7 Storm in a Teacup I'm a fan of mobile gaming, I'll admit it. I've discovered lots of cool games on my iPhone that wouldn't be possible on other platforms, but I've also played lots of worthless games. So here we have Storm in a Teacup, a mobile game ported to the PC, and also a game which fits into the latter category of mobile games...
Bundle Backlog - Lume, Postal 2, and Anodyne
Apr 7, 2013
Bundles : Groupees Build a Bundle 5, Groupees Be Mine 3, and Groupees Retro Bundle Lume Lume is a game that has, if nothing else, a good promise. I'm going to say up front that it doesn't deliver on this promise. It's not that the game is bad, it's that it could be a good game. If it were longer than 20 minutes. I'm okay with short experiences, as long as that experience is satisfying, and Lume...
Bundle Backlog - Solar 2 and Dynamite Jack
Mar 21, 2013
Anyone who has played games long enough has accumulated a ridiculous backlog of games to play. For me, the problem is tenfold due to my addiction to indie game bundles. This is a serious problem, and because of it I know have around 400 games on Steam, with an additional ~50 unique games on Desura (not counting duplicates), and even more DRM free games. I've finally decided that enough is enoug...
