Seasons After Fall is a great looking and very charming puzzle/platformer with a bit of a Metroidvania thing going on. It might be short, but it's definitely fun from start to finish. It's a relaxing experience that allows you to explore beautiful hand-painted locations that come to life as you change from season to season. The puzzles are fun and never feel overwhelming, which is always a plus for this type of game. If you're looking for a solid puzzle/platformer on PS4, then give Seasons After Fall a try!
The game is big with a lot of content that could easily take you over 30 hours to play. There is plenty to do in the game, and a lot more content to experience on top of the main campaign if you want to get the Platinum trophy for your collection. The game looks great on PS Vita, and the music is very remarkable, making this a great game to enjoy on the go. If you're looking for a new dungeon crawler, then you should definitely get Operation Babel: New Tokyo Legacy. And if you liked Operation Abyss: New Tokyo Legacy, then getting the sequel is a no-brainer!
I had a lot of fun with The Sexy Brutale. It's a short game that does something interesting by giving us a “Groundhog Day” style release where you replay the story from different perspectives as you use the information you gather to save all victims. Overall, you're looking at around 6-9 hours to 100% the game before you can add a new Platinum trophy to your collection. I highly recommend you get this charming and fun release on PS4 so that you too can explore what The Sexy Brutale has to offer.
Dreamfall Chapters on PlayStation 4 certainly feels like the definitive version. It features all content right from the start, so while we did have to wait for the game to release, we got all episodes at once. It also includes reworked character models, improvements to the animation, better lighting and some added special effects to make the game pop on the PlayStation 4. If you're a fan of adventure games, then you have to get Dreamfall Chapters for PS4 today!
If you want to play something different on PS4, the Randall could be a good option. But I do think you should first wait and see if the team improve things with a patch or two.
If you are looking for a massive SRPG for the Nintendo Switch, then you have to pick up Disgaea 5 Complete. NIS America is definitely going all in with Nintendo's latest console, and they have more games for it in 2017 and beyond, and I very much look forward to playing them.
I greatly enjoyed my time with the game for my Embers of Mirrim review. It's a solid platformer with a slight learning curve due to how you need to control both embers at the same time, but once you get the hang of things, it's a very fun experience. There's plenty to do, a Platinum trophy and lots of fun for less than $20. What's not to like?
Tango Fiesta is a fun action-packed release on PS4 that is very fun in single player, and even more fun with some buddies in local co-op. The game gets crazy hectic and challeging with a full group, but that's a big part of its charm, right? If you're up for the challenge, then you should get this tribute to the 1980's action movies today!
Eventide: Slavic Fable definitly follows the same formula of the previous releases from Artifex Mundi, which ain't a bad thing. I did have a better time with this one than with previous games since the focuse was less on hidden object puzzles and more on logic puzzles. The story was also very interesting and different from otehr entires. If you like adventure games then you should definitly give this one a try.
I'm planning on doing reviews for the game's level expansions, so watch out for those soon!
Overall, Rise and Shine is fun once you get going and get the hang of how shooting and aiming works. There is no Platinum trophy for this one, but it has a good list of objectives to complete for things such as killing the first boss without receiving any damage, opening all chests in the game, or doing the Konami code.
Period: Cube ~Shackles of Amadeus~ is a great Otome visual novel on PlayStation Vita with a solid story, great graphics and a ton of content to experience. If you're a fan of the genre, then you're going to love this entry. But even if you're not a fan, this PS Vita release is the perfect entry point into Otome so that you can see what all the fuss is about.
Samurai Warriors: Spirit of Sanada is an excellent game that expands on the Samurai Warriors formula by introducing interesting elements such as friendship building and exploration. It feels a bit more personal than previous Samurai Warriors releases, making it a must-play for fans of the franchise.
RiME's very enjoyable, but a soon forgotten game – something with superb eye candy, but one that delivers short of gameplay and originality.
Yesterday Origins is a clever adventure game with a nice mix of the old-school of point and click releases and some of the advancements in the genre for the 21st century. It's a lengthy release with plenty to do and lots of information to process, as should be the case for any adventure release. The game's art style will grow on you as it is a nice mix between cartoony and realistic with a lot of polish to detail. If you want a good PS4 adventure game to play, then Yesterday Origins from Pendulo Studios and Microïds could be just what you needed.
Get the game, but don't expect it to be like Borderlands or any other modern shooter. Visuals aside, this plays very much like the 90s FPS that inspired it, and while that's a good thing, we're nowadays more accustomed to a bit more complexity and variety in the genre.
As someone who had never played a Cooking Mama game before, I have to say I really enjoyed my time playing this one on 3DS for my Cooking Mama: Sweet Shop review. The cute art style is certainly charming, and the gameplay is fun and paced just right. If you're a fan of the series, then you're going to love this one. And if you're new to the franchise like me, this is certainly a great place to start!
In the end, Skylar and Plux: Adventure on Cover Island is a 3D action platformer that at times feels bit “by the numbers,” but that doesn't mean it's not fun. You're looking at around 6-7 hours to complete the game with everything it includes, which is a nice length considering its $14.99 budget price. If you're looking for a game to scratch that 3D platforming itch with a nice balance of action, platforming, and collectibles, then I definitely recommend you play this one.
Final Thoughts Tumbleseed is a unique release based on a great idea and is very fun to play. The visuals and the gameplay are very polished, and the procedurally generated levels will keep you playing for many hours. I recommend this one to gamers looking for a unique experience on PlayStation 4 since Tumbleseed certainly delivers!
Overall, Mother Russia Bleeds is a fun single player/multiplayer beat 'em up on PlayStation 4. It's a bit on the gruesome and bloody side of the genre, but it's a fun ride while it lasts. Being able to take on the game on your own or with up to three other players makes it a great option on Sony's console, so if you've been looking for a beat 'em up with a good balance between the old and the new, you should give this one a try.
