Many of the games developed for mobile platforms usually encompass the puzzle genre, exposing players to soulless blocks and cubes with utter disregard for the visual aesthetic and its effect on the player. Buka takes the exact opposite route, taking the utmost care to visually impress upon players the cuteness of the entire experience. Buka, [...]

When the original Lost Planet released on the Xbox 360 as an exclusive, it stood out as a third-person shooter and was subsequently hailed as a relative success. Granted, this was during a period in the 360 lifespan when the console still wasn’t being bombarded on a weekly basis by waves of new titles, downloadable or [...]

The text adventure seems like a genre from a bygone era capable of being lumped in with fax machines, vinyl records and the country of Siam, but Matthew Reynolds still believes that there is some life left in the genre. Text Zedventure, a text-based adventure title developed for the Xbox Live Indie Game store, possesses [...]

Bits & Bytes is a series of short reviews for short games. Being short doesn’t make them a bad game (in fact, some of these games are quite good), it just means there’s not much for us to talk about! This time we take a look at 180, a coin matching game available on Apple [...]

Love & Death: Bitten is a strangely addictive game from Big Fish Games. There’s not a lot of flashy graphics or extremely strategic gameplay like a lot of games that I’ve become used to playing — it’s a point and click adventure.

Zeno Clash: Ultimate Edition is not new – it released for PC over a year ago without the “Ultimate” tagline – but it just came out on XBLA with extra content and it is certainly unique, if nothing else. Zeno Clash is a first-person brawler/shooter with the teeter-totter tipping in the direction of brawling. The [...]

First of all, this is not Alice’s Wonderland, but that doesn’t stop Akaoni Studio’s from borrowing the name for their fairy tale setting. Zombie Panic in Wonderland is an arcade style shooter with one goal in mind: annihilating zombies into extinction, or more precisely — little floating hearts. Featuring a short story mode (only 9 [...]
