Review: Dirty Bomb
Given the fact that the game is in its beta phase, it would be easy for it to be derivative and buggy. Surprisingly, this is not the case with Dirty Bomb. … read more

Review: Sorcery 3
Sorcery 3 prides itself on being the open-world equivalent of traditional, linear gamebooks, and it’s an absolute blast to play, especially if you’re carrying a character over from the previous titles to really ramp up the time-traveling challenge. … read more
Review: Fighties
The amount of tweaking needed to balance a roster of unique characters is something that takes dedication, so I was surprised to find that dedication outside of Street Fighter or Super Smash Bros. in the form of Fighties—a small title developed by a team of two people—for $5.00 on Steam. … read more
