Review – Lovish
Lovish is a charming throwback to the single-screen arcade games that would have eaten rolls of quarters in the ’80s. Players take control of Sir Soloman, a selfish knight who decides to ditch his party before they venture out so he can have the princess in waiting all to himself. Without his band of RPG staples to help him out,…

Review – Super Star Force
On the surface, it looks just like any other autoscrolling shmup. Surprise! Underneath is a hybrid game that swaps between shooter and action adventure. Plus, you travel through time to change the future. What more could you want?

Review – Rampart (Famicom)
Rampart has a formula that can only be stretched so far. Or can it? When Konami took a crack at it on Famicom, they took it to a pretty unusual place. It's time to see Rampart like you maybe never have before!

Future Racer 2000 has been updated quite a bit since I first did a write-up of it in 2023. So, I figure that now's a good time to revisit it and see if it still has the magic.

This seems familiar. Not even a year after I played through Blood: Fresh Supply, Nightdive is back with an updated version. I wish someone would have warned me. Maybe I should ask them next time I'm thinking about starting a '90s shooter.

Review – Dog Witch
Appropriately, Dog Witch is about a dog that is also a witch. You face off against a wizard, which is just the more socially acceptable magic user. It's time to show them that withholding treats from a good boy is absolutely unacceptable.

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 – Ganbare Goemon: Uchū Kaizoku Akogingu
Now that I have your attention, let's talk about Goemon's first visit to the OG PlayStation. Uchū Kaizoku Akogingu certainly looks the part. It's got that weird style. But something in its heart is just not right.
