It has been over 30 years since the Wolfenstein series of games began on the humble home computers of 1981. With 8 bit graphics, that we see still being used today in some titles to great effect.

Wildlife Park 3 Review Ă Ă The Wildlife Park series has always been among the black sheep of the ever growingĂ tycoon games family. While each of the three currentlyĂ released games has a great idea or two, the way theyâre executed makes them less desirable than their devs would want them to be. I had my hopes high that this wouldnât be the case with their third game, Wildlife Park 3, but alas...[Read More]

BattleBlock Theater Review à à Here we are. A bit late to the party, but we got there nevertheless. Behemothâs overachieving platformer has finally reached Steam, and has a couple of cool new tricks up its sleeve. If youâre like me, and you pretended that the game didnât exist âtill its PC release either (we all hate spoilers), then this is new and wonderful to you, too. And I gotta say, t...[Read More]
Kick Ass 2 Review Ă Ă Games that are basedĂÂ on big blockbuster movies have a reputationĂÂ of disappointing their audiences in a number ofĂÂ ways. Most of the time the original franchise rushes a development team to complete a project, often leaving the title unfinished and comprised ofĂÂ immersion breaking bugs. This is an attempt toĂÂ exploit the current popularity and fan base surrounding a film by ...[Read More]

Indeed, The Last Door has gallons of blood splattered throughout the storyline, but it never relies upon it to scare the player. There are finer ways to do this, and this little adventure manages to hit all the right buttons as the story progresses. One...[Read More]
