Humankind (PC) Review

Leading up to its release in August of 2021, Humankind was hyped up to be the downfall of the Sid Meier’s Civilization franchise. As a fairly devoted fan of the Civ series, I dare say I’m decently qualified to judge how well…

Knock on the Coffin Lid (PC) Review

Deck-Building Rogue-likes are one of the ways I wind down when I’m not working. Some of them follow the typical Slay the Spire formula, while others do a few things differently. Knock on the Coffin Lid is one of the more interesting…

Lunar Remastered Collection (PC) Review

My recent review slate has been an exercise in returning to the classics. First, I covered the Suikoden I and II remasters, and now I’m on to another classic series. Until the Sony State of Play announced the Lunar Remastered Collection back…

The Talos Principle Reawakened (PC) Review

Amongst the First-Person puzzle games that were released in the wake of Portal and other such titles, nothing was quite like The Talos Principle. With a mix of philosophy and questions about humanity, its puzzles were more than just fun play. The…

Sports: Renovations (PC) – Review

Do I need to run down the details I’ve already covered in the preview of Sports: Renovations? A blonde woman named Jesse sees a news piece late at night and does what all women do: Try to save anything slightly dying. The…

The Executive – Movie Industry Tycoon (PC) – Review

Since this is creepy psychotics anonymous, I’ll admit that I have a thing for business simulators and the behind-the-scenes of how creative things work. Developed by Aniki Games and published by Goblinz Publishing and Maple Whispering Limited, The Executive – Movie Industry…

Out of the Park Baseball 26 Review

There are sports simulation games, and then there are games for the sickos who want to manage statistics more than step up to the plate. I’m in both camps and while many are flocking to MLB The Show this time of year,…

Sin Slayers (PC) Review

There’s an elephant in the room that I want to address right up front. Sin Slayers, as it originally existed when I received a review key for it years ago, appears to have since been removed from sale on Steam. The developer…

Spilled! (PC) Review

Eco-conservation themes aren’t new in gaming. Truthfully, Final Fantasy VII puts “Save the Planet” in big lights hanging over the party’s head for 100+ hours, and that’s just the original release. Spilled! is a more low-key affair, a simple experience based on…
