Coffee Talk is as refreshing as it is sweet
Much like a cup of coffee, Toge productions’ Coffee Talk is both simple-seeming and complex. It's a narrative experience that left me feeling warm and more than satisfied. From the start of my playthrough I could see the love and care that…
Sky Rogue ー A Rogue Flight
Feeling somewhat like Afterburner, but no longer on rails and with a slower pace, Sky Rogue has you fly around a small set of islands fending off enemy aircraft and destroying buildings. Success sees you earning money to upgrade your plane…
Iconoclasts — Fight the Power
Following the well-established Metroidvania system of gated progression through tool, weapon or item acquisition, Iconoclasts presents a surprisingly complex map with a high number of secret or unattainable items early on.
Space Grunts 2 — Can’t quite lift-off
Space Grunts 2 still has the potential to be a great game, and hopefully, with more time and new development focused on expanding its already solid mechanics, it will become the game that it can be.

Upbeat adventure Journey to the Savage Planet is a bright delight
The graphics are bright and friendly. Other than base environmental items like rock and grass, it’s all very alien and unique giving you a great sense of discovery as you turn a corner to find another new plant or animal.
Neverwinter Nights: Enhanced Edition is hard to resist.
Following on from its smash-hit series, Baldur’s Gate & Icewind Dale, BioWare dropped another classic in July of 2002 by shifting their storytelling prowess into 3D for the first time and injected a friendlier Dungeons & Dragons 3rd…
Lost Ember is a game that fizzles and dies before ever bursting into flame
Lost Ember has all the hallmarks of a critical darling — and you only need to look at its Metacritic and Steam ratings for confirmation. Unfortunately, for me, it was yet another walking simulator with a twist. Yes, I’m sorry to preempt my…
