Game Review – Rain World
Short Version: This game is a tragedy. Everything I see in it yells excellence, but the moment I actually start playing, I hate it. The mechanics and the controls are completely at odds with the exploration you are encouraged to do, leaving me frustrated, angry and worst of all, bored....
Game Review – Toukiden 2
Short Version: It’s really good! I never thought that I would enjoy myself so much with a Monster Hunter-style game like this one, but I truly did. The game’s likable characters, along with the awesome soundtrack, fun gameplay and the open world style turns it into an addictive experience that...
Game Review – Danganronpa 1.2 Reload
Short Version: It’s a fantastic pair of games. Not only are they very well written, but also captivating, thought provoking and in my opinion, important. The PS4 rerelease adds a couple of small improvements that makes the already great games even better. It’s a fantastic entry point for people like...
Game Review – Berserk and the Band of the Hawk
NOTE: This is a review of the PS Vita version, which holds many visual and technical differences from the console and PC versions. Short Version: It’s pretty average. I mean, it’s fun, but the story and animated cutscenes completely emasculate the gameplay. If you have played a Musou game before,...
Game Review – Fate/Extella
NOTE: I don’t know anything about the Fate franchise. The only Fate-related thing I’ve exposed myself to is a magical girl spin-off anime called Fate Kaleid Liner Prisma Ilya, which I like a lot, but I don’t think it’ll be enough to understand this game. Please keep that in mind...
Game Review – Hatsune Miku: VR Future Live (2nd & 3rd Stage)
Short Version: If you’ve already read our review of the 1st Stage, then you’ve read this review already. There aren’t any big changes, other than more characters being featured in the songs and slightly more variety on the concert special effects. It’s still a good time and a bit more...
Game Review – Loading Human: Chapter 1 (PSVR)
Short Version: I hated this game at the beginning, but now I like it and absolutely want to play the other episodes. The initial tutorial is rough and the controls take a bit to get used to, but give it some time and things will flow just fine. The story...
Game Review – Yomawari: Night Alone
Short Version: A simple, but very subtle and profound coming-of-age story. Yomawari: Night Alone is a really good horror game that left a big impression on me, due to its memorable imagery, relatable setting and a simple world full of mystery and adorable creepiness. It’s a really short and easy...
Game Review – God Eater 2: Rage Burst
Short Version: It’s really good! I’ve never played a God Eater game before, but I still felt it easy to get into it. Initially, it felt impenetrable to me, but the game is really good at slowly acquainting you with the vast amounts of ways to customize yourself for battle....
Game Review – The Silver Case
Short Version: It’s pretty fun and engaging! It’s the typical Suda 51 weirdness that people have come to expect, but in an engaging police drama format. It may be a visual novel, but it does so many different things differently than all the others that you are guaranteed to have...
