             Micro Mages is a 4-player local co-op game made by Morphcat Games for the Nintendo Entertainment System in 2019. Me and a few friends played through it recently and thoroughly enjoyed it. I love projects like this that utilize old hardware; it’s so cool to see what modern developers can do on the NES. […]

             Another year, another Kirby game. There may be a lot of these games, but this one stands out from the pack as the first truly 3D Kirby game. It’s only about 20 years behind the competition, but better late than never I guess. For the longest time, I figured a truly great 3D Kirby

             This will be the first time I write a review of a direct sequel to a game I have already reviewed. My very first review was for the first Metroid Prime, which I enjoyed. When I played the first game, I had just about zero experience with first person shooters. After successfully beating the

             Me and three friends recently played through the campaign of Halo Reach together. Shooters are not my preferred type of game, so I had low expectations going in. Halo Reach has many of the same issues I generally have with shooters, and has a plot I felt could have been better. Despite this, I

             Never Have I reviewed a game with a longer name! Layton’s Mystery Journey: Katrielle and the Millionaires’ Conspiracy is a decent game with the same quality of puzzles as other games in the series, but with an underwhelming story that made it a slog to get through at times.              Remember, this review reflects

            The original Detective Pikachu came seemingly out of nowhere. Detective Pikachu is a Pokémon spin-off game released for 3DS in 2016; it is a game where you investigate and solve crimes with gameplay similar to that of the ace attorney series. The game has slow gameplay, an underwhelming story, and a bland soundtrack, but

             Octopath Traveler II builds on the original in some exciting ways. The battle system is revamped with new mechanics and moves, and path actions are easier to navigate thanks to the new day-night cycle. However, the sequel does not improve in the areas that I hoped it would. The story is lacking, and the

             Tears of the Kingdom is a fantastic game. The new abilities drive players to make amazing contraptions and explore the world with few limitations. While I have qualms, the full world with endless fun, polished content is an unforgettable experience worthy of succeeding Breath of the Wild.              Remember, this review reflects my experience

             Bowser’s Fury gave me very little to complain about. The controls are tight, and the level design is excellent. The mechanics are fun, and nothing overstays its welcome. I had half-expected this game to be forgettable, made for the sole purpose of selling more copies of Super Mario 3D World to people who already

(3DS) I liked my playthrough of this game quite a bit. I and three friends each got the game on our 3DS’s and got together to play through it. I was impressed with a few of the mechanics that made for greater replay value, and the level design was very good at allowing players to
