The third installment of the Erica Reed thriller has finally arrived. The last episode was dark, grisly, and awesome! Does this installment live up to the same standards?It’s difficult to write this review without spoiling the episode. The episode is so story driven and a massive bombshell is dropped within the first several minutes of the game. If you’ve been following the series, my review in short is play this episode, but you’re probably already doing that. Spoiler alert! You’ve been warned! The [...]

Man vs. machine. It’s a classic video game archetype, and one that plays front and center in Bad Bots. You play a crew member aboard the once glorious SS Titan. In it’s glory days the Titan was the premier battlecruiser. Now in a time of peace, it has been repurposed as a junk hauler. The player finds himself awakening in a trash compactor, and soon realizes that the robotic crew that helps with ship management is on a mission to terminate all humans. The only [...]
I’m not prone to playing games on iOS. If I want to play something I’d rather boot up the PC. Sorcery has started to change my attitude towards iOS games. I’ve always been a fan of “choose your own adventure” novels, which is what Sorcery is at it’s core. Your adventure starts off as you leave the safety and security of “The Wall” and trek across field and mountain to reclaim the Crown of Kings. The Crown has fallen into the hands of your [...]
The setting of Sang-Froid transports players back into the 1850′s in rural wintry Canada. Times were different, the supernatural and superstitions were entities that hid among the quiet snow laden trees of the wilderness fueling fears to be home by dark. These thoughts paint the atmosphere of Sang-Froid. You play as either one of two brothers from the village of Wolvesvale. Due to some troubles in town, the Devil descends upon the small village and plagues the local woods with werewolves and [...]
Zombies, zombies, and more zombies. The living dead are everywhere in gaming now days, not that I’m complaining. I personally love zombies, but I will admit that zombies as a genre is a bit over done. Then enters Shattered Haven an indie game with zombies, well kind of. There are zombies in Shattered Haven, but they are called Greys. Instead of chopping them to death with axes they can only be hurt by iron, water, or fire. It’s a different [...]
If you were a child of the 80′s or 90′s you’re bound to have come across a choose your own adventure novel at sometime in your adolescence. You read them, you loved, you wished they come back. Monster Loves You takes the spirit and enjoyment of that genre we gobbled up as kids, and repackages it for the next generation. Monster Loves You spans the life cycle of a monster, which the players controls shaping it’s life and the lives of others around it. [...]
High Born is a tactical turn based strategy game which I think is best described as Civilization combat for dummies, and I mean that in the least derogatory way possible. Gameplay in the Highborn feels like a stripped down version of combat in Civilization V, which is a good thing because combat in that game was great. Players control different units on a “square board” as opposed to the superior, in my opinion, hexagonal designed boards. The square designed boards [...]

Platformers now days have seemed to shift into a hyper twitch genre, with titles like Dust Force and Super Meat Boy focusing on punishing difficulty and precise muscle memory. Oozi: Earth adventure is not one of those platformers. Instead Oozi is a modernization of the classic retro platformers we all grew up on. It’s not flashy or innovating to the genre, but a solid enjoyable platformer. Oozi: Earth Adventure focuses on Oozi, a peaceful space alien. While piloting his space ship on a [...]
Combine the speed and platforming precision of Super Meat Boy, add to it some competitive racing mechanics, and infuse the mashup with Dubstep and you have Rush Bros. The premise of the game is simple, race through the 30 levels as fast as you can. In singleplayer, the game tracks your time and will populate the level with a ghost image to give players an incentive to try to speed through the level faster than before. The game however seem to [...]
