    Review – Agent 64: Spies Never Die

    Zoey Handley / August 10, 2026 / 4 Comments

    It's like Goldeneye never left us! Sort of. Agent 64: Spies Never Die wears the skin of Rare's venerable N64 classic, but that leaves it some big shoes to fill. Can any game hope to even compare?

    Zoey Handley / August 8, 2026 / 2 Comments

    You hungry for hot dogs? Meat Grinder is a horror game centered around digging up graves and turning those corpses into tube meat. And no one would know the difference. Are you hungry for hot dogs now?

    Review – Splatoon Raiders

    CJ Andriessen / July 31, 2026 / No Comments

    Across the 15-hour or so adventure, you’ll uncover the truth of these hidden isles, fight an increasingly eclectic collection of bizarre Salmonids, and tackle the biggest enemy of them all: a creeping sense of repetition.

    Review – The Mermaid Mask

    Zoey Handley / July 26, 2026 / No Comments

    Sally and her sidekick, Detective Grimoire, are back for another adventure. But can Adam Vian and SFB Games deliver yet another narrative success? Yes, they can. That's not very surprising.

    Review – Star Fox (2026)

    Zalno / June 28, 2026 / No Comments

    Take a trip through the Lylat system once again in Nintendo's most recent revisit of the perennial N64 title. But with this being what is, effectively, the fifth time the SNES game has been remade, have we passed the point of absurdity?

    Road trip game Ithaca presents a nice drive, but in a crowded car

    Zoey Handley / June 21, 2026 / No Comments

    Time to hit the road for another game trying to capture the feeling of a road trip. Have I finally found the perfect one? Not yet. At least, the prototype of Ithaca doesn't suggest so.

    Review – Wax Heads

    Zoey Handley / June 9, 2026 / No Comments

    I can smell that fresh vinyl already. Wax Heads puts you behind the counter at a record shop. Can you make the recommendations? Can you handle the drama? Can you rise above? Probably! It's not really a game you can fail at.

    Review – MOLE

    Zoey Handley / June 1, 2026 / No Comments

    Sometimes you just want to crawl into a hole, and that's what MOLE is all about. Except it's a spooky hole. One that talks to people and makes them feel bad things. Navigate your giant drill deep into the Earth and tell it to stop.

    Review – Operation Night Strikers

    Zoey Handley / May 26, 2026 / 8 Comments

    What happens when you take four very arcade games away from the arcade? You get a compilation of ports of four very arcade games. Operation: Wolf, Operation: Thunderbolt, Night Striker, and Space Gun come together for some reason in Operation Night Strikers.

    Review – Astronook

    Patrick Hancock / May 19, 2026 / No Comments

    As my son’s obsession with all things space and planets continues to grow, I keep my eye open for games that might allow him to explore what he loves even deeper. Astronook caught my attention because it’s a so-called “cozy” experience, which definitely sounds perfect for a three-year-old. I’ll tell you what’s not cozy: trying to solve way-too-intense connect-the-dot puzzles…
