All in a day’s work — Atelier Escha and Logy Plus: Alchemists of the Dusk Sky review

When you are a kid, it is fun to play pretend jobs, like playing “restaurant” or “doctor” or “cement mixing yard foreman’s convention organizer.” Feeling like a grown up is as exciting for a kid as convention organizing is for an adult, of course, but there is a difference.

The portal comparisons begin — Attractio review

While current trends indicate that TV is on the outs, video viewership is still a key piece of our entertainment consumption. Nothing can prepare us for the scrolling madness that will be future video delivery, but a few fun guesses on what we may see is never a problem.  The

Fly like a bus — Omnibus preview

Heroes come in many shapes and forms. Some in capes, some in tights, some even in a squirrel outfit. Omnibus doesn’t need any of that though, as it is just that: a bus, capable of moving omnidirectionally and saving the day. Omnibus is a new physics-based game that centers

The power of the people — Okhlos preview

The power of the people is vital in democracy, that the population must be able to determine their own future and course. It’s that vein that Okhlos derives its inspiration from, if perhaps in a more violent manner than you might expect. In Okhlos, you are a prophet figure,

Peeling back the layers — The Witness review

The Witness is a puzzle game for the PlayStation 4 and PC. I start this review in that frank manner, because frankly, knowing too much about Jonathan Blow’s newest title is doing a disservice to yourself. This wonderful title, eight years in the making, has confounded, infuriated, and captivated
