While I was playing through Dragon Fantasy: The Black Tome of Ice and thinking about what I would say for the review, I found myself thinking about a certain subject that has come up in a lot of previous reviews. That subject is whether to rate the game based on only the “objective” elements I …
Rhapsody II: Ballad of the Little Princess (PS1/PC/PS5/Switch): A Harmonious Return (Detailed Review)
Here’s another game from the “I took too long to get to this” list! Yes, I know, I say that a lot… not the part about the list I mean. Point is, I meant to review Rhapsody II a lot earlier, and then a bunch of shit happened, and then I played a whole bunch …
Standard Review: Hand of the Goddess (PC)
Well then, this game certainly came completely out of left field. There have been quite a few times where the games that shake me to my core are the last that I expect. When it comes to indie gaming, there will be plenty of cases of dark, horror masterpieces like Mouthwashing or MyHouse.wad getting the …

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. Well, it’s a spinoff of a visual novel, and it was localized by a company that specializes in visual novels, and the code was given to Fuwanovel, so that’s the site it will be posted on. https://fuwanovel.moe/2024/12/review-dungeon-travelers-to-heart-2-in-another-world This one was …

Standard Review: Dragon Quest VI: Realms of Revelation (SNES/DS/IOS)
Dragon Quest VI: Realms of Revelation is in a bit of an awkward position when it comes to the Dragon Quest series. While it is a solid JRPG in its own right, it has the unfortunate distinction as the first in the series to be a step down from the previous entry. In short, Dragon …

Quick Review: Com__et (PC)
Another Fuwanovel review. This was written a while ago, but it took a while for them to edit it. Anyway, this is my review for a small indie VN called Com__et, I think it’s an interesting concept. https://fuwanovel.moe/2024/05/review-com__et Anyway, next piece will be an update on the Poppy situation, and following that will be my …
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 …

Impressions & Commentary: The Coffin of Andy and Leyley Chapters 1&2
CW: Discussions or Incest, Cannibalism, emotional abuse, manipulation, and domestic abuse. Also there are spoilers. Consider pledging to my fanbox if you want to see more reviews of NSFW games like this. Time to capitalize on a trend everyone! The Coffin of Andy and Leyley is certainly something, and that specific something that it is, …

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. Deadlight is so bad, that I’m writing this review immediately after playing it, just to make sure that I remember every maddening detail of it. …

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 …
