Review: Perception

Though imperfect, Perception offers a compelling story with a cool art style. There are some genuinely effective scares here, even though I wish the developers would have pushed the idea a little furt...

Review: Slayaway Camp: Butcher's Cut

Normally when I play games, I have an easy time nailing down the design decisions that annoy me. That's not the case here. For what it's trying to do, Slayaway Camp gets almost nothing wrong. Sure, yo...

Review: Mutant Football League

Much like the 24 year old game that started it all, Mutant Football League is fast, fun and easy for casual fans to get into. It's also incredibly violent and full of cheesy horror puns. In some ways ...

Review: Clash Force

Clash Force looks and acts the part, but mainly recycles from far better 8-bit games. I like the colorful graphics, the responsive gameplay and the various boss fights. Unfortunately, it's all over in...

Review: The Mummy Demastered

By taking the action back to the 16-bit era, WayForward has improved on The Mummy in pretty much every way. This is a great looking run 'n gun shooter with a cool horror theme and a large map to explo...

Review: Infernal Racket

Infernal Racket has one of those themes you can't help but love. There's something cathartic about running around and destroying millions of dollars' worth of fine china, priceless sculptures, ancient...

Review: Don't Knock Twice

Switch owners may get a kick out of having a scary game just in time for Halloween, but Don't Knock Twice is a mess. The premise is sound, but the gameplay is boring, the puzzles take no thought and t...

Review: Riskers

On paper, the idea of merging the original Grand Theft Auto with Hotline Miami sounds like one of those things that can't go wrong. But it does, in a whole bunch of frustrating ways. This is a crime t...
