Feist Review | MOUSE n JOYPAD

  Feist is unflinchingly brutal in nearly every respect. It doesn’t care that you’ve died dozens of times trying to complete a nearly impossible leap. It doesn’t care that a handful of giant flies unfairly block any attempt to finish a level and it certainly doesn’t care that the controls are far too imprecise to demand half of what it wants you to do. Feist is one of the most frustra...[Read More]

KYN REVIEW

The single most impressive thing about Kyn is that it’s been built, for the most part, by only two men. Yes, a large tactical RPG has been largely developed by a pair of developers alone, and it didn’t turn out to be a heap of trash. We’re off to a solid start already! Kyn is a large, sprawling, beautiful and only a tad bit bland in some regards. Its story is set in a universe heavily inspired by ...[Read More]

Zotrix thus marries the old and the new in a package t...[Read More]

HIFUMI KONO INTERVIEW: NIGHTCRY

Growing up, I was a huge fan of the horror genre, especially when it came to the PlayStation.  Silent Hill, Resident Evil, Parasite Eve – all of these games were perfect for turning down the lights, turning up the audio, and waiting for the next scare.  But one game was sadly overlooked by my peers.  I would occasionally pop it in and watch as they wet their pants trying to escape a deformed littl...[Read More]
