Staying Alive For Less Money
Instead of a straight Tuesday app review this week, Martine investigates the game I Am Alive, an older survival horror title which like many others can be found for dirt cheap as a download today. Does it stand the test of time?
Better things can come in small packages
We took a die-hard console gamer and put him in front of Shuttle’s newest, tiny SH87R6 gaming computer. To say the little system made the grade is a bit of an understatement.
Jump Up, Jump Up and Get Down
The classic Doodle Jump game bounds from phones over to the 3DS platform. Revamped as Doodle Jump Adventures, it offers great new graphics, but is that enough to justify the leap, and the higher cost?
A Real Bruticas Maximus
Offering a huge leap in realistic-looking blood-soaked gameplay, Ryse: Son of Rome is quite an exhilarating adventure on the Xbox One, but is nonetheless hampered by a lackluster story.
A Flagging Experience
Our app reviews continue with Flag It Free, a game we hoped would peak our vexillology interests. But arbitrary timed levels and a difficult interface left us at half-staff.
Darkout: Fade Into Black
Darkout is one of those games like Terraria and Starbound where you have to build a shelter, craft weapons, and fight for your life in a strange world. And if it were not for a few flaws, it might stand shoulder to shoulder with them.
A Great Ghosts Upgrade
Call of Duty: Ghosts was a great-looking game on either the PS3 or the Xbox 360. But now that it has jumped to the next generation hardware, it’s pretty unbelievable.
A Physics Game To Paw
Only in app games it seems can you have two felines popping balloons, skirting black holes and fighting over a ball of yarn using physics. But Chester & Morgan deliver.
On the Right Path
Path of Exile offers an action-oriented MMO that can be enjoyed as a single player or with a group. And it’s a true free-to-play model, one of the first, that doesn’t nickel and dime players to death. It’s a welcome change in all cases.
Return of The Walking Dead
The Walking Dead Season 2 Episode 1: All That Remains puts players in the role of Clementine, the girl we worked to save all first season. Expect more horror and brilliant storytelling.
