Angelo D'Argenio's Reviews
13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim is a fantastic game that will appeal to a very specific slice of the strategy gamer fanbase. If there is even a chance that you are in that slice, then I suggest you check it out.
Windbound is a game that sounds good on paper but in practice, it falls apart. It's a very interesting case study in design that takes inspiration from certain games yet doesn't quite understand what made them fun in the first place.
It's a shame that the gameplay is so shoddy at times, because I truly believe that Tell Me Why is one of the most important games of our time, in terms of social impact. Hopefully later episodes won't feel as awkward to play.
Samurai Jack: Battle Through Time is an enjoyable nostalgia trip both in gameplay and story, but it's just not quite $40 worth of game.
This is no Thousand Year Door, and it's not really an RPG at all, but it is a nice little diversion to keep your thumbs busy between other bigger releases.
Valorant isn't trying to appeal to everyone. It's trying to appeal to a hyper focused slice of the hardcore shooter fanbase. If that sounds like you, you will absolutely love it.
Maneater is a game that could have been good but was too obsessed with forcing players to interact with its low points to make its high points shine.
Granblue Fantasy Versus is a fantastic game and an early pick for fighting game of the year.
If you are a fan of One Punch Man you'll probably get a kick out of A Hero Nobody Knows but don't expect it to keep you playing long. For every minute of brilliance there is an hour of grinding to go along with it, and that's trying even for the most dedicated fans of the Caped Baldy.
Dreams is really something special. Frankly, I'd like to see other game development tools come with curation suites like this. It would change the way we look at game design. Now if only these dreamers could get paid for their work…
