Today’s Greenlight spotlight is on a rather unorthodox game. Rather than being a game in a traditional sense, Viridi is more of a simulation and a tool to help unwind from a long and difficult day. It is the sort of game that you pick up when you’re having your morning tea on a Sunday morning. A game that you ...

https://youtu.be/AT–UBqOYUw City-building games were a staple of my youth. From games like Emperor: Rise of the Middle Kingdom to Zeus to Caesar 3, I spent hundreds of hours building cities and watching them fail during my youth. The city-builders of today have unfortunately not had that same effect on me, and left me with no desire to revisit them ...
Read More »Steam Greenlight Spotlight: Guardians of the Forest
https://youtu.be/zrn7HaZh27Y Today’s standout on Greenlight is Guardians of the Forest, a multiplayer brawler that features cute animals that die in various violent ways. It seems that the theme of Greenlight games the past few days has been multiplayer arena/brawler games, and as a frequent game night attendee, I could not be happier to have a wider variety of games to ...

With the disappointment of Aliens: Colonial Marines, and the mixed reactions to Alien: Isolation, fans of the Alien franchise, or just alien horror in general, have had a rough time getting a decent game. While Colonial Marines was just an absolute disaster, Isolation bored many people with its repetitive mechanics and stretched-out storyline. An alien horror game needs tension and ...

My group of friends and I are always looking for some new party games to play, so I always jump at the opportunity to add a new game to our collection. While games like Gang Beasts and Towerfall: Ascension are staples in our local ...

On April 17th Star Wars Battlefront was officially announced. Since then various new announcements have been made and this is what I was able to find and put together for you: The game is set to release on PS4, Xbox One, and PC. For graphics junkies, the game is intended to release at 60FPS on both consoles. So, theoretically they should ...
Read More »Heroes of the Storm is getting a new hero, Kael’thas
If you love Blizzard’s ever-growing MOBA, Heroes of the Storm, but you’re slightly bummed about the apparent lack of diversity in terms of heroes (HotS has much to do in this regard if it is to catch up with Riot Games’ League of Legends or Valve’s Dota 2), you’re in for a treat. It seems that Blizzard’s new arena game ...
Read More »Steam Greenlight Spotlight: Blues and Bullets
Today’s Greenlight spotlight is on Blues and Bullets, a story-based detective game. First off, I’d like to freely admit that I am a sucker for a good detective mystery. I love games like the Tex Murphy series and L.A. Noire, and it’s really great to see something of the like coming out of Greenlight. My interest in Blues and Bullets ...

If you’ve ever wondered what it’s like to be a goat, then you’re probably familiar with Goat Simulator. It’s the only game that I’m aware of that allows you to experience things from the perspective of a goat. So, after sampling the game and experiencing what I can only assume to be an accurate depiction of an average day in ...
