Platforms: PC (Steam) It's not often that I get a chance to review a fighting game here at A-to-J, and even rarer that I get a chance to review one that comes from the indie scene. I'd imagine that creating a balanced fighting game from scratch is no small task, but that's exactly what Brazilian developer Statera Studios has set their sights on for years. Pocket Bravery came to life around 2020, though it took a while to get off the ground. After some other hiccups, its creator launched a (sadly unsuccessful) Indiegogo campaign in 2022, and eventually got a full release the following year. It's currently a PC exclusive at the time of this writing, though I wouldn't be surprised if a console release is in this game's future. There's going to be a lot to cover in this one, so let's dive right in! By Teepu Player(s): 1-6
Platform: PlayStation 5, Xbox, PC (Steam) 2024 was an interesting year in gaming, but I have felt strongly that the western strategy genre has been painfully silent over the last decade or so. Sure, there have been some releases here and there, but the golden age for the genre, when I was a kid, has long since passed. Songs of Silence is an indie game that has been developed over time for the PC and just recently released for consoles in full and helps to fill that void. By Teepu Player(s): 1-2
Platform: Android, iOS Pokémon is no slouch when it comes to creating tons of spin-off games of varying quality. Mobile especially has had a ton of games, most of which have shut down by now, and yet they keep trying to experiment with the brand in new ways. Oddly, the latest experiment is a game that steps on the toes of a game that has been playable for quite a while. Despite this, is Pokémon TCG Pocket worth playing? |
