Hitman GO Review
ONE STEP AT A TIME
Hitman GO is an interesting game. While it has some of the mechanics that are most known for the franchise it doesn’t have any of the violence. Sure, you do “kill” targets, but it’s not in the graphic manner the series is known for. It’s more of taking pieces on and off of a board, much like a game of chess. Continue reading Hitman GO Review
Gemini: Heroes Reborn review
FORCE PUSHED
Gemini: Heroes Reborn is better than it has any right to be. Based on the recent Heroes television miniseries Heroes Reborn, the game has all the trappings of an IP-tie in video game, including unimpressive presentation and a lack of creative design. However, the gameplay’s main component, combat, became the game’s saving grace that kept me entertained all the way to the end. What should have been a typical example of a bog standard title based on a pre-existing intellectual property manages to be a step above its preconceptions, if in a unsubstantial way.

Unpopular Opinion: I Didn’t Think Chrono Trigger Was Anything Special
This article contains spoilers.
Recently, Eurogamer broke the news of a five hour tribute album to one of the most beloved games of all time: 1995’s Super Nintendo JRPG Chrono Trigger. The album involved contributions by over 200 musicians and thirteen visual artists. Proceeds of the album, entitled Chronicles of Time, will benefit Doctors Without Borders.
While donations to charity are certainly wonderful, I won’t be purchasing this album. I am not a fan of Chrono Trigger, music included. Continue reading Unpopular Opinion: I Didn’t Think Chrono Trigger Was Anything Special

Pneuma: Breath Of Life Review
A WHOLE NEW WORLD
Puzzle games these days seem to be centralized around the mobile marketplace. Titles like Candy Crush Saga and Bejeweled have millions of downloads because of their bright colors and simplistic gameplay. It’s been quite a while since a first-person puzzler was released to the world, or if there has been one, I haven’t noticed. So I was fortunate that Pneuma: Breath Of Life crossed my path. Deco Digital Studios did a fantastic job of creating a world that not only looks amazing, but is filled with tough yet manageable puzzles and an interestingly philosophical storyline.
