Fire up your Commodore 64 and prepare to load star, because it's time for Sword of Fargoal. It's a roguelike from before those were absolutely everywhere, and that's not necessarily a bad thing.

Review – Mafia
Open-world crime games are hardly uncommon. Even when Mafia was released in 2002, it wasn't breaking new ground. But it found success where few games at the time did: a slavish dedication to detail.

Review – Wyrmhall: Brush and Banter
I've never cleaned anything in my life, so Wyrmhall: Brush and Banter was certainly a learning experience. As it turns out, I'm pretty good at it, as long as you don't count the times I made a mistake and almost undid all of reality. At least there's snacks.

Review – Penguin-Kun Wars (Arcade)
Grab your balls, it's time to go to war. Penguin-Kun Wars has you sliding your balls down the table as you seek to overwhelm your opponent. Its simple gameplay certainly smells like 1985, but that doesn't mean we can't have a good time.
