6 / 10.0 - The Escapists
Feb 13, 2015

Escaping prison should be more exciting than this. Strategizing is fun, but the amount of repetition gets tiresome

6 / 10.0 - Grow Home
Feb 13, 2015

Despite a handful of interesting moments, the whole experience feels a bit hollow

8.5 / 10.0 - Evolve
Feb 11, 2015

The 4v1 formula is original but inherently limited; how long Evolve holds your attention will depend on how much you enjoy the hunt.

8 / 10.0 - Sunless Sea
Feb 10, 2015

It's a rich, story-driven game of moving from island to island like some sort of Lovecraftian Odysseus. It's engaging, but loads of screens to push through and lackluster combat detract from the experience

Dozens of hours of fun are available to longtime fans or new hunters with enough patience to learn from the early sections

8 / 10.0 - Gunman Clive 2
Feb 5, 2015

The gameplay will be familiar to fans of NES platformers, but there are plenty of surprises thanks to its shifting themes and levels

Even without being remade, Majora's Mask stands as one of the most interesting and thought-provoking entries. The experience has only been made better for the 3DS

9 / 10.0 - Apotheon
Feb 3, 2015

The unique look blends with inventive and diverse level design to create a fun 10-hour journey

Telltale expertly toys with players' emotions. If you walk away from this episode with anything other than a sense of dread for House Forrester, you're playing it wrong

7.3 / 10.0 - Gravity Ghost
Feb 3, 2015

Gravity Ghost's story is moving, but the basic gameplay fails to impress and offers little challenge

8.5 / 10.0 - Dying Light
Feb 2, 2015

Tense and full of adrenaline-fueled moments, Dying Light is a blast

8.3 / 10.0 - #IDARB
Jan 30, 2015

Vying for points next to a collection of friends scratches many of the same multiplayer itches as Super Smash Bros.

This first episode shows a lot of potential. The characters and their struggles are relatable, and the narrative sets up plenty of intriguing threads

The remastered version is a nice reminder of – or introduction to – the heyday of adventure games, warts and all

7.5 / 10.0 - Citizens of Earth
Jan 20, 2015

Humorous and fun, but a bit mundane at times. Retro RPG fans will find a lot to like

Short, funny, but lacking in gameplay complexity

7.8 / 10.0 - Xeodrifter
Jan 14, 2015

Xeodrifiter is a fun, by-the-book way to get your fix for this niche style of gameplay

One of the greatest horror games of all time becomes even better

7.5 / 10.0 - Elite: Dangerous
Jan 5, 2015

Despite a solid framework for an incredible game, right now the title can feel barren and lacking in variety

10 / 10.0 - Ultimate NES Remix
Jan 3, 2015

Ultimate NES Remix, or any title in the series for that matter, is not for everyone. Those looking for a story they'll remember years in the future, or a title that blows gamers' minds with innovative mechanics, will not find it here. However, if what you seek is a way to quickly enjoy cunning challenges melded from a simpler time on gaming will find it here in spades. Ultimate NES Remix offers hours of simple to learn, devilishly difficult to master challenges that have kept me busy for days on end, and I couldn't be happier with the end product.
