Standard Review: Dungeon Travelers: To Heart 2 in Another World (PC/PSP/Vita)
This is another Fuwanovel review, even though the game itself is not a visual novel.

Steam Greenlight Landfill: Skator Gator 3D (PC/XONE/XSX)
It’s not often that I play a game so dull and mediocre that thinking about it makes me nauseous. I can’t exactly say that Skator Gator 3D is one of the worst games I played, but I don’t like thinking about it. It gets under my skin in an odd way that objectively worse games …

Quick Review: Angry Video Game Nerd Adventures (PC/3DS/WiiU/Switch/PS4/XONE)
Angry Video Game Nerd Adventures is a game that is a lot more unique than it looks. While it may look like just another retro style action game attempting to cash in on retro nostalgia and fans of the web series; it also takes a rather unique approach to its design. Specifically, it manages to …

Deadlight (PC/360/XONE/PS4): Dead on Arrival (Detailed Review)
Deadlight is fucking terrible. I am making sure I emphasize this right away so that no one makes the mistake of assuming this wretched pile of filth has any merits.

SpongeBob SquarePants: The Cosmic Shake (PC/PS4/PS5/Switch/XONE/XSX): Battle for Bikini Bargain Bin (Detailed Review)
If I had a nickel for every retro throwback 3D platformer that was based around time travel, that made my most anticipated games of 2023 list, and ended up mediocre and disappointing, I’d have two nickels. I don’t know why someone would give me two nickles for two games existing though, it’s not like I …
