Darq: Ultimate Edition (I’m a Sick Kid with a Weird Obsession with Walls Vertigo Simulator)

Darq: Ultimate Edition (I’m a Sick Kid with a Weird Obsession with Walls Vertigo Simulator)

  I think Darq is one of those bite-sized experiences that can either take a few months or be finished in a single sitting. It harkens back to puzzle games of an older era where hand-holding is at a minimum, and confusion is at the maximum. The game begins with no introduction, no tutorials, only […]

Pronty (The Worst Part of Zelda as a Setup for One of the Best New Metroidvanias)

  I can’t remember the last time I enjoyed a water level. I personally believe that every mediocre game has to check off the “water level” box to make it feel true. Yet Pronty, a seemingly cutesy indie metroidvania, took that and made it the sole focus. But, in the end, they blew me out […]

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 […]

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, […]

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)

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 […]

Turbo Overkill (Chainsaw Leg Cyberpunk Retro FPS)

  Dang I don’t think anyone can do any wrong with this type of game anymore. The resurgence of interest in retro FPS has been, well, not so much a resurgence as an institution. I’ve covered a few games of this type over the past few years, and this recent drop is just sick. Set […]

Chasing Static (Another Retro Horror Romp with Unlocks)

  Survival horror yay! Not always yay, actually, often smellay. This one isn’t at that level, though, so don’t worry, I just felt like a rhyme. For anyone new, let me give my usual explanation of what makes this game type work. It’s like playing through a finely crafted novel; it needs one, a good […]

World of Horror (Horror Manga Point-and-Click Game)

  Just wow. Reviewing video games is much more difficult than the usual music crud on this site. They’re not as easy for fans to access, they can require more money (if we’re talking about digital anyway), and they take longer to assess. But recently we fools at Deaf Sparrow have been restructuring the review […]

Blood Breed (Sad Bad Retro-Inspired Survival Horror)

Blood Breed (Sad Bad Retro-Inspired Survival Horror)

  The appeal of “retro” styled games has been in full swing for the last few years. Many gamers remember the good old days of survival horror and that’s where games like Blood Breed come in, an obvious throwback to PS1 horror from its blocky graphics, schlocky dialogue, and overall feeling of escaping over fighting. […]
