Review by Harvard L. I’ll gladly preface this review by saying I’m not the biggest baseball fan in the world – I was drawn to Out of the Park more for the spreadsheets rather than the sport – but I can confess that my time with the 2018 edition of…
Read MoreReview by Lindsay M. My first experience with The Escapists was actually when I previewed The Escapists: The Walking Dead for PC. Within minutes of beginning to play via keyboard, I knew the franchise was destined for a mobile release. I later spent many an hour with The Escapists on…
Read MoreReview by Clark A. For over 20 years, Story of Seasons (aka the artist formerly known as Harvest Moon) has served as a light-hearted farming simulation that is inherently addictive.

Read MoreReview by Matt S. After the travesty that was the new free-to-play RollerCoaster Tycoon, Atari must have realised that there was indeed a market on mobile platforms for proper simulation games. Enter RollerCoaster Tycoon Classic, effectively a mash-up of the original RollerCoaster Tycoon and its sequel, and I – and…
Read MoreReview by Matt S.NOTE FOR ALL READERS: UIG has patched this game, so that the save game bug, the only reason it was originally given a low score, is no longer an issue. Industry Giant II is now a solid 4/5 game, and I highly recommend it to everyone who…
