Dustwind: Keeping the Post-Apocalypse Fresh
It’s no secret we’re big fans of post-apocalyptic games. As you’ll see in our review right below, Dustwind: Resistance is another title that really stands out with its own unique feel. To understand how this tactical playground came to life, we sat down with Dimitri Zaitsev, the creative director behind most of the Dustwind titles.…

Dustwind Resistance is a Second Chance
We’ve all been looking for that Fallout Tactics feeling again. It’s really hard to nail that specific isometric chaos. We’ve been chasing that dream for decades. It simply never fades.

Dracamar Is A Cozy PS2-Era Ghost
Dracamar is a bright and cartoonish platformer that instantly managed to wake up that specific feeling of sitting in front of a heavy tube TV with a tangled controller.

Refreshingly Good Time with Survivor Mercs
We didn’t expect much when we first booted this up; it felt like just another horde survival game promising the world. We were glad to be proved wrong. Survivor Mercs is a straightforward game with fun mechanics tied to the primal desire to blast robots into scrap metal. If you love staring at a screen…

KIBORG: A Tough but Fun Sci-Fi Brawler
You know how there are those games with massive worlds, sprawling stories, and deep moral choices? They are fun, but the sheer scope of them can also be very tiring. Sometimes, we just want to jump into something straightforward. KIBORG is exactly that. You wake up in a sci-fi prison and your only real goal…

Far Far West Offers Chaotic Co-Op Fun
Is it just us, or do a lot of extraction shooters feel like second jobs designed to push a battle pass? The grind seems insufferable. And what’s with all the difficulty spikes? Why does every game feel like it’s set in some Dark Souls parallel universe? If you’re also sick and tired of that model…

GUILD WARS REFORGED is Launching on Mobile this Summer
Well, this was something that we definitely didn’t expect. We’re getting a mobile version of Guild Wars Reforged later this summer. It made us beyond happy, and we didn’t even know we wanted something like this. The game is coming to both Apple and Android phones with a control layout built around touchscreens rather than…
