Narita Boy
I am very much a child of the 80s. A time when hair styles were wild, politics were bleak, and when the world started to become absolutely enamoured with computers. Spearheaded by a boom in special effects that produced legendary films like The Empire Strikes Back and Bladerunner, sci-fi ruled the decade, and with home…

The Innsmouth Case
I think it’s safe to start this review by saying that I found The Innsmouth Case very hard to score. I wouldn’t really say this is a video game in the traditional sense; it’s not one that can be measured by things like visuals, audio, and gameplay – which is odd, I know. But stick…

WitchSpring3 [Re:Fine]
![WitchSpring3 [Re:Fine]](https://www.vgamingnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/WS3-banner.jpg.webp)
WitchSpring3 is the third of a long running series of mobile games, and the first to come across to the Switch. Originally released in October 2017 for mobile and ported to the Switch in late 2020 for Korean and Japanese markets, the English translation and western release arrived in August of this year. To what…

Axiom Verge 2
The metroidvania has been a beloved genre since the release of the original Metroid way back in 1986 (belated happy birthday to the OG, Samus Aran, by the way!), and there have been some tremendous games released under the banner over the years. One of the first to spring to my mind was the frankly…

Just Die Already
When Goat Simulator burst onto the scene in 2014, it unwittingly gave birth to the physics based, mayhem sandbox genre. You know the one; your main aim is to cause as much destruction as possible, all the while fighting against controls, and the lighter side of gravity. Fast forward to 2021 and Just Die Already…

Ayo The Clown
Upon first glance Ayo the Clown, developed by Cloud M1, looks like a game that is going to hit all the right notes to take you on that 90’s nostalgia kick for 2D platformers. It very much has the undertones of MegaMan, Super Mario Bros 3 et al, however I found out that nostalgia wasn’t…

Cris Tales
Cris Tales, a tribute to classic JRPGs from Columbian developer Dreams Uncorporated, is a game that I find myself wanting to like more than I do. Instead I’m left somewhat unsure of who the game is for. The nostalgia factor seems designed to attract those raised on the early Final Fantasy games of the late…

Of Bird And Cage
When I first heard about Of Bird And Cage I was intrigued; it positions itself as a game set to an album of talented rock and metal artists from around the world. And being someone who lived his pre-pandemic life in black band tees and mosh pits, I was eager to see if Of Bird…

Trigger Witch
Are witches the new zombies? They are increasingly everywhere. My benchmark for terrible witchy things is the film “Season of the Witch”, a film so poor that I cannot forgive myself or Joe for not leaving the cinema. Trigger Witch, is fortunately, neither a bad witch film or a bad game. Trigger Witch blends magic…

Worms Rumble
The sole meaning of life is to MaKe MoRe BaTtLe RoYaLe GaMeS Leo Tolstoy Or something like that.There isn’t a rock big enough for you to live under to miss these; you’ve all played arena shooters and battle royale games by now, or at least be aware of what they are. As a genre, they’re…
