As a long-time gamer who's stuck in the past, I must say that Atari 50: The Anniversary Celebration is one of the best compilations ever produced. From its expansive museums to its wide variety of classic games and hidden gems, it really is the cat's pajamas.

6.4 / 10.0 - Ghost Song
Nov 10, 2022

Ghost Song does some things quite well but as a complete package, it remains a tedious and patience-testing experience. With so many Metroidvanias out there, it's probably a good idea to look elsewhere for some exploration-based action.

8.3 / 10.0 - Radiant Silvergun
Nov 8, 2022

Radiant Silvergun remains one of my favourite shoot 'em ups of all time with its mind-blowing array of weaponry, steep challenge, and clever mechanics. It's been a long time since it released, though, so I was hoping there would be some new content included here.

Everything in God of War Ragnarok is carefully crafted to create a superb experience both cinematically and when it comes to gameplay. It may not break any new ground in the world of gaming but what's here is still undeniably awesome.

8.1 / 10.0 - LEGO Bricktales
Oct 31, 2022

LEGO Bricktales masterfully combines rewarding exploration with clever construction-based puzzles to make for a highly entertaining formula. The controls can be annoying when you're building things but once you see it all come together, you'll have a great time.

6.2 / 10.0 - The Pinball Wizard
Oct 30, 2022

I enjoyed my time with The Pinball Wizard but it's certainly lacking when it comes to variety and excitement. If you decide to play it, keep in mind that it's best to play it as a game to relax with and not as some sort of skill-testing challenge.

Ghostbusters: Spirits Unleashed offers a fantastic online experience that lends itself exceptionally well to the comedy horror franchise.

Unusual Findings is a master class in old-school adventure games and even gives Return to Monkey Island a run for its money.

Batora: Lost Haven's consistently challenging battles and puzzles are rewarding and its game-altering decisions are the icing on the cake.

Cult of the Lamb is of course a very popular game and I understand why: it's cute, disturbing, and an excellent game to stream.

If The Darkest Tales' gameplay was tightened up a great deal, I would have thoroughly enjoyed it as it has quite a unique premise.

The Last Hero of Nostalgaia is basically a rudimentary version of Dark Souls where you play as a stick man but at least it's funny.

Prodeus is a top-notch old-school first-person shooter that takes what made the classics great and amplifies it with fitting modernizations.

Although it's occasionally irritating to play, Last Days of Lazarus remains gripping thanks to its jaw-dropping variety of disturbing situations.

It may feature a distinct premise yet White Day: A Labyrinth Named School manages to become tedious thanks to its repetitious setting.

With its unique gameplay and superb audio, Yomawari: Lost in the Dark offers a solid albeit repetitious fear-fest that fits in 2 dimensions.

SIGNALIS does a decent job of offering a retro survival horror experience yet it doesn't do much to make it stand out from the crowd.

It's tough to recommend Splatter - Zombiecalypse Now, especially seeing as there are dozens of much better twin-stick zombie shooters.
