While working on this case he discovers a cult that wishes to bring back ā€˜the old godsā€™ from the worlds of Lovecraftian horror lore.

We Happy Few Real Gamer Review

We Happy Few is a game that I have personally been very interested since it was shown off years ago at E3. It had that very weird feeling that a game like Bioshock can give you but was also seemingly new and unique, at least from a visual and story standpoint. It started as a Kickstarter project that gained traction fast, then was picked up by Gearbox for publishing rights. Now the game has been in early access on the Xbox preview program since mid-2016, but I have not played that build of the game, so I canā€™t speak on it.

Dead Cells Review

Dead Cells is a rogue-like Metroid-vania style game developed by the studio Motion-Twin. So this game features procedurally generated areas which is something new to the genre of Metroid-vania since itā€™s usually all about remembering the layout of the map, finding secrets in it, and back tracking to older areas to unlock newer areas. Dead Cells throws all of that on its head with making everything well randomized. Survive long enough and you can play it like Metroid, but die and itā€™s time to start over. Sure, some of the areas are pre-designed, but they are constantly randomized, so you will never know where to go next whenever a new life begins.

Guts and Glory (Nintendo Switch) Real Gamer Review

Guts and Glory is a port of the popular PC title by HakJak and tinybuild Games. While the PC version is well-known for its vast amount of community-driven levels and being a generally good game to laugh at, this version is funny in all the wrong ways. This review serves to review the gameā€™s base concept and the quality of the port itself, which is sadly quite poor unlike other recent tinyBuild games which have been excellent such asĀ GARAGE: Bad Trip,Ā Graveyard Keeper, andĀ Outpost Zero.

Minecraft is basically on any device you can ever think of, but I have always found the handheld versions lacking in comparison to itā€™s PC and Console counterparts. Minecraft: Nintendo Switch Edition promises a modern Minecraft experience at home, and on the go, so does it deliver, and is it worth the $29.99 price tag?

State of Decay: Breakdown Review

State of Decay may have been something you overlooked over on itā€™s release last year as an XBLA Exclusive, hell, even I did until late last year when it finally made its way to PC. State of Decay for Tristan was a 7.9, but this is the review of the DLC we missed out on. State of Decayā€™s first DLC is titled Breakdown, giving me what Iā€™ve wanted for some time, sandbox mode. That was the original reason I skipped over the game, but in addition I also was waiting for the PC release as I preferred the comfort of my PC vs. the coldness of my sad, Xbox Live-less 360. This wasnā€™t exactly a game I hadnā€™t looked forward to and the wait did kill me, but it was well worth the wait especially with the DLC added in. I rarely consider DLC worth it in the long run, but I canā€™t help but say it for this game.
