Tangle Tower, Crow Country devs’ next game, The Mermaid Mask, is out this Summer
Looks like we've got ourselves a mystery on our hands, gang. The Mermaid Mask, the next game in the Detective Grimoire series, has a new release window of Summer 2026. Following up on Tangle Tower and Crow Country is no small order, but what could go wrong?

Review – Outlaws: Remaster
It's always a good day when a Nightdive remaster is involved. This time, they've touched up one of LucasArts most unique first-person shooters. And while it is mostly just obscure due to being sandwiched between Quake and Half-Life, there are other reasons why you may have never heard of it.

Review – Feudal Bros. – Tonosama #1
Hungry for some more Bakage? Feudal Bros. - Tonosama #1 brings all the dumb you need. Dumb characters. Dumb themes. Dumb design. You can't go wrong, unless you can.

Review – Wolfenstein: The New Order
It's always a great time for some denazification. MachineGames has been working hard to ensure that they stay at the very peak of the hobby, giving us games like Wolfenstein: The New Order. Alternate history may be bleak, but at least there are lots of targets walking around.

Review – Absolum
Before I completely gush about Absolum for approximately 3000 words (grab the popcorn for this one), we’ve got to set the stage by talking about 2020’s Streets of Rage 4. Developed by Lizardcube, Guard Crush, and Dotemu, the revival of Sega’s classic beat-’em-up series rode an impeccably fine line of casual arcade fun and technical depth. The result was a…

Review – Irem Collection Volume 3
It's a good time for arcade collections! I lied, it isn't. PS2 was where it was at when arcade collections would have, like, 30 titles on them, and you could always find them in the bargain bin. Contrary to that, here's Irem Collection Volume 3.

Review – Super Technos World: River City & Technos Arcade Classics
I hate the name because I can never remember the whole thing, but I’ve said before that Double Dragon & Kunio-kun: Retro Brawler Bundle is one of the most important retro collections to be released in North America in recent years. If you’re reading this and haven’t played it, you should. We got a few of the Nekketsu/Kunio-Kun/Downtown/River City games…

Review – Suikoden I HD
I have no nostalgia for Suikoden. I grew up hearing it was a good game (or, really, its sequel), so I was very intrigued at the idea of jumping into an HD remaster. The Suikoden games have quite the legacy behind them (even more so if you follow Aidan Moher on social media), but I never knew how much of…

Review – Mafia: Definitive Edition
I should have probably been more enthusiastic about Mafia: Definitive Edition. Hold on, that’s not as revealing as you may think. I’m just saying, a full remake of one of my favourite games from my adolescent days probably should have been more of a priority for me. I bought it around release, but never pushed far into it. Probably because…

Review – The Sinking City
Lovecraft is someone often imitated but never matched. A significant number of games have lifted from his mythos to different levels of success, but there's something intransferable about his storytelling. The Sinking City is an interesting take on his brand of horror, but it winds up a very mixed bag.
