Platforms: PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, PC (Steam) I've played countless roguelikes in recent years, to the point where it feels like there's dozens of them coming out every week. It's not easy to stand out in this extremely crowded genre, but today's game manages to do just that. Developed by Compile Heart, and published by Idea Factory International, Scar-Lead Salvation is now available on the PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, and PC. It's not only a roguelike, but it's also a third-person action game with bullet hell style action. It also has a neat anime aesthetic, and a sci-fi setting. It actually looks nothing like most releases from either of the companies mentioned above, and that doesn't necessarily have to be a bad thing. We're going to be taking a look at the game on the PlayStation 4 today, and see if it manages to stick its landing. There's a lot to cover in this one, so let's just dive right in!

Platforms: Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5, PC (Steam) The internet is chock full of memes and skits. Viva La Dirt League’s series Epic NPC Man is one of those, which pokes fun at common MMORPG tropes. Nice Day For Fishing is a fishing RPG that is based on this fictional world, and it's the subject of today's review. By Manuel  Players: 1
Platforms: Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, PC (Steam) Adventure Academia: The Fractured Continent is the latest title in the long-running Class of Heroes series, and it released in December of last year on the Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, and PC by way of PQube Entertainment. While the Class of Heroes series is mainly a dungeon crawling JRPG series, Adventure Academia changes things up by moving into the SRPG genre. Nothing is ever that simple though, and it's an SRPG game with quite a few real-time elements to shake things up a bit. Seeing as we're nearing the its first anniversary, we decided that now is a good time to dive into the game and see if it's worth going back to school for, or if you're better off dropping out early.

Platforms: Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, PC (Steam) It's Valentine's Day, and I have just the game for you all! Mizuchi is a yuri themed visual novel that originally released back in 2020 on Steam. It was brought to fruition via a successful Kickstarter, and developer Aikasa Collective recently completed another Kickstarter for a new game. Funding details aside, Mizuchi is now making the move to consoles. It's currently available on the Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, and PlayStation 5. We're going to be taking a look at it on the PlayStation 5, and seeing if it was worth the long wait. We have a lot to cover in this one, so let's get right to the review! By Manuel  Players: 1
Platforms: Nintendo Switch Retro-themed RPGs are rather common in today's gaming scene, but it's not too often when one chooses to emulate games that have a checkered history as far as the internet is concerned. Ringlorn Saga is an Action RPG that plays in a fashion similar to classic NEC PC-8801 games like Hydlide and Ys. Hydlide in particular has garnered a mostly negative reputation ever since gaming YouTube got a hold of it, and it's worth mentioning now that Ringlorn Saga arguably plays the most like that game in particular. This 8-Bit inspired game is developed by Graverobber Foundation, and published by Upscale Studio. It previously released on PC via Steam, and it's now available on the Nintendo Switch. We're going to be taking a look at that Switch release today, and figure out if that Hydlide-inspired formula actually works well in the modern era. There's a lot to go over in this one, so let's just get straight to the review! Manuel  Players: 1
Platforms: Nintendo Switch, XBox One, XBox Series XS, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, PC (Steam) I've had the pleasure of playing plenty of action roguelike games in recent years, but I have to admit that things are getting a bit crowded within that particular scene. It truly feels like a handful of new roguelike games release every week, and it can be hard to stand out amongst the crowd. Yasha: Legends of The Demon Blade is one such game, and it's currently available on all major platforms. We're going to be playing it on the PlayStation 5, and see if this game is worth your time. There's going to be a lot to go over in this one, so let's dive right in! By Al  Players: 1
Platforms: Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5, PC (Steam) I've already mentioned my love of the first two Class of Heroes titles in my review of the first game (Which can be found HERE), but I think it's the sequel where things really get interesting. Rounding out the new PQube-published Class of Heroes re-releases is Class of Heroes 2G: Remastered Edition available now for the Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5, and PC. We will once again be taking a look at the PlayStation 5 release, but I'm sure most of what I'm going to say will apply to both versions. I already know that this is going to be a long one, so let's jump right into it! By Al  Players: 1
Platforms: Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5, PC (Steam) I'm a huge fan of the classic dungeon crawling RPG series Class of Heroes, and I was excited to hear that the first two games in the series were getting updated releases for modern platforms. Out now on Steam, PlayStation 5, and Nintendo Switch by way of PQube Entertainment, we're going to be taking a look at both games on the PlayStation 5. This review is going to be for the first game, but the second one will be coming soon. Enough with intros, let's get into it! |
