Lindsay picked up an NES controller for the first time at the age of 6 and instantly fell in love. She began reviewing GBA games 20 years ago and quickly branched out from her Nintendo comfort zone. She has has developed a great love of life sims and FMV titles. For her, accessibility is one of the most important parts of any game (but she also really appreciates good UI).
Now that everyone has (hopefully) finished their holiday gaming plans, today’s new DLC for Fairy Tail 2 might lure you back to the action RPG. The Fairy Tail 2 Hot Springs paid DLC has launched and features a new scenario, a new hot springs area, and special outfit sets. A free outfit set is also available, and there are a…
I don’t know where the past year and a half went. I could have sworn I’d just barely stopped posting about Dokapon Kingdom: Connect, but my last post was in June… June 2023. It is a Compile Heart-developed remake of Sting’s Dokapon Kingdom (2007) for Nintendo Switch, best described as…
Last month, PQube announced that it will bring Iwakura Aria to Western…

The Rose & Camellia games first launched as one hit online Flash game in the 00s, gaining popularity as sequels were released. They are odd genre mash-up of visual novel and slap’em up (if that even counts as a genre). I only heard about the series last year during Limited…

Adorable, cozy, animal-themed games are trendy these days thanks to titles like Apico (okay that’s technically an insect but close enough), Bunhouse, Calico, and Cat Café Manager – and I’m into all of it. Last June I learned about Kamaeru: A Frog Refuge, a cozy froggy farming sim that was…

With Easter being last weekend, it is now basically the month of the bunny. And when it comes to bunny games, Bunhouse can’t be beat. It’s got fuzzy bunnies frolicking through a garden. It’s perfectly happy, perfectly soothing, and perfectly non-violent. In 2022, it was announced that Bunhouse would be…

I’m obsessed with Botany Manor and it hasn’t even launched yet. What I’ve seen of the first-person botanical puzzle game set in a historically accurate 19th-century Somerset manor is soothing yet also tickles my mind a little bit. It is the debut game of Balloon Studios and published by Whitethorn…

Class of Heroes and Class of Heroes 2 were both initially released for PSP, launching back in the late 2000s. A remaster of the first game did launch in 2018, but never left Japan. So now, fifteen years after the originals, seems like a darned good time to bring remasters…

The Corpse Party series is a bit confusing if you’re a newcomer. The first game in the series, originally launched in the mid-’90s, has been remade/re-released a ridiculous amount of times. There’s a sequel that isn’t a sequel but also is one (it’s literally called Corpse Party 2: Dead Patient).…

Mere days ago, I was whining about how a new trailer for Cupid Parasite: Sweet and Spicy Darling didn’t quite make up for the lack of a known release date. Someone somewhere must have heard my cries, because today Idea Factory International announced the game’s release date. It also dropped…

I absolutely love detective games featuring strong, smart women. I think there aren’t enough of them… but that could just be me. Hauma – A Detective Noir Story fits in this category. It launched for PC last September but I was never sure it would come to consoles, until today…

We need more art in games. Period. There is an entire world of the fine arts just begging to become someone’s inspiration, but instead it feels like new game releases just repeat its genre’s common formula with a new skin. That is what makes me so excited about puzzle platformer…
