News by Lindsay M. It is not an exaggeration to say that Boyfriend Dungeon is one of the most creative, unique titles I’ve ever had the pleasure of writing about. In the game, you fight your way through.a dungeon — totally normal, right? It sure it, until you add in…
Read MoreNews by Matt S. One way to get my attention really fast is to claim that you’re making a “serene and evocative narrative experience.” Not only are you focusing on the bit of video games that I enjoy the most (the narrative), but you’re also using words that are very……
Read MoreReview by Matt S. Tetra’s Escape isn’t inspiring. It looks like a student coding project, if that student forgot to get an artist to replace the stand-in graphics that they used while building the game. One of the main selling points of the game is that it’s an easy platinum…
