Zelda Does it Again
Legend of Zelda: Link Between Worlds on the Nintendo 3DS has a lot of what made 2D Zelda titles worthwhile while still introducing new aspects and features to keep players interested. It’s about as perfect as a sequel gets.
Not Quite Legendary
Our Tuesday app review this week is Legend Online for the iOS, where our reviewer braves Cowardly Gits, annoying ads, bad typos and a sexist world where a good pair of pants is impossible to find.
The Return of the Classics
Poor Billy missed the Sega Genesis revolution the first time around. But now thanks to new technology, the At Games Sega Genesis console offers the classic games and new thrills.
It All Brotherly Love
While many of the new Xbox One games aim at adults, Max: The Curse of Brotherhood is more suitable for younger players, though we think just about anyone can have fun with this one.
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.
