It sounds wonderful: the publisher describes it as a single-player psycho-detective mystery adventure that has a unique blend of psychological intrigue and supernatural investigation. It is split into episodes/chapters, and the latest trailer showcases what comes in Episode 2: Death from the…
Super Monkey Ball is cute. Hatsune Miku is cute. Sega has its hand in both. It just makes sense to bring the real pop princess to Super Monkey Ball Banana Rumble, the latest game in the long-running series. Paid DLC for guest characters Hatsune Miku and Godzilla will launch next…
When it comes to the Atelier series, combat and synthesis are core…

Last month, I wrote about a Stray Souls trailer that (I thought) stated it would be available Halloween 2023. I mistakenly believed this meant it would launch on Halloween, but that’s not the case as it was announced today that the game would actually launch a week prior to that.…

Described as a cottagecore collect-a-thon platforming adventure, the game first launched for PC in April 2023 with a promise of coming to PlayStation and Nintendo Switch. That…

Sunshine Manor blends hand-drawn pixel graphics and an 80s-inspired soundtrack; that combination is quite tantalising to someone of my age (I may or may not be nearing 40, which is just about as scary as Sunshine Manor looks to be). Add that to the fact it’s also inspired by 80s…

It’s not often(if ever?) that a game is described as a complex alchemy RPG, but that’s exactly what BattleJuice Alchemist is. Okay, it could also be described as an action-adventure RPG, but that sounds far more generic and far less cool. Developer Alchemical Works and publisher ESDigital Games announced the…
