The Callisto Protocol (Alien Crunching Workplace Hazard Survival Horror)
Crunchy. The Callisto Protocol is the crunchiest game of 2022. Your protagonist’s head (Jacob) will go crunch. The enemies limbs, head, and torsos will go crunch after beating them with a stun baton. Your controller will go crunch after being thrown on the ground of one of the most frustrating dodge mechanics in a video […]

Hallows Hill (Fin de siècle Dead Ghost Girl Escape Room Game)
Well, here’s a concept I’m now totally sold on. Most of what I receive for video games is through Epic or Steam, with the occasional console tossed in if we feel like it, because, let’s face it, PC ubermensch is a real thing. Console fools and Xbox douchebags (that’s a true fact, they’re all […]

Hello Neighbor 2 (Goosebumps Survival Horror)
I’ve always been a bigger movie dork and music nerd than a gamer, but in the face of doing right by the Captain…looks like it’s time to play them games. What better game to start than the eagerly awaited Hello Neighbor 2. The first installment set the game world on fire with it’s family-friendly […]

Scorn (Anatomically Inaccurate Childbirth Walking Simulator)
Have you ever wanted to experience the miracles of childbirth at the cellular level? Scorn is probably not an anatomically accurate reinterpretation, but from the mechanically mushy corridors to the gruesome parasite covered protagonist, it’s an absolute delight for horror fans with some of the most incredible art direction of any game I have […]

The Fridge is Red (Cancer and Alcohol is Psychological Horror)
Highly hyped, and wrongly maligned by some, The Fridge is Red has received valid mixed criticism. There’s really only one thing to complain about, in my opinion, but the story and mechanics, blah nah! That I was surprised at. Here I go again, listen. Psychological horror succeeds primarily if it has a strong storytelling […]

NeverAwake (Nightmare Coma Bullet Hell Shmup)
Wow what a literal and figurative nightmare of hellish bullets! Been awhile since I reviewed any games in the shmup category, but this has been the only one to catch my attention. Most shooters are reworked versions of everything that’s come before. Rarely have they been inventive. Occasional goodies have appeared over the years, […]

TimeMelters (Third-Person Dark Fantasy Witch Strategy)
Oooo here’s an interesting one yay. All I knew was we got an indie team with some sort of witch game. Cool, because this has been a witch kind of past month. We got Acid Witch review dropped last week, we got the new Atomic Witch dropping soon (review coming this week), and now […]

No Place for Bravery (Gory Pixelated Adventure RPG)
Yeah man I read some hate, some of that vitriol about this game, and it rather surprised me. Was I like into bad games? No, you fool, remember the reality of it all! Most gaming sites, especially bigger ones, crap out reviews en masse, and their “critics” play a few minutes and think they […]

Mothmen 1966 (Retro PC Pulp Cryptid Horror)
Yo I dig this. My first experience with computer games, other than a brief sampling on a friend’s Commodore 64, was the Apple IIe. Now, granted, I only played Lemonade Stand at the time, but always dug that green/black color scheme, the boxy look, and the booping speaker from inside the harddrive, not to […]

Cartel Tycoon (1980s Narcotics Business Sim)
Lol what a perfect idea for a game. I love playing sims, mostly those of the deep dive type made famous by Side Meier. Civilization, duh. In his incredible programming career, dude also started the tycoon craze, whereby the player runs some sort of business. He was not the first to conceive of this […]
