Halloween might be over, but these games keep Spooky Season going

Halloween may have just passed, but the hearty influx of ominous and spooky content lives on. While low-resolution horror games have seen a resurgence lately, I’ve rounded up a wide variety of work perfect for Halloween and the imminent cozy season. We start with one game from Color Fiction, a developer who showed off a […]

Scarlet Nexus Is Good But You Should Play Genshin Impact Instead

Earlier this week, after playing through loads of the 40 free demos that launched on Xbox during E3 2021, I decided it was high time to give Scarlet Nexus a whirl. For those unacquainted with it, it’s an intensely anime action-adventure game that opts for a combination of the kind of hack-and-slash combat you’d find in […]

Nintendo Wins Rom Lawsuit, But Gets Less Than It Wanted

After almost two years, the legal battle between Nintendo and RomUniverse is over. The company came out victorious with millions in damages and the takedown of RomUniverse.

Skylanders Went Too Hard, But A Comeback Could Succeed

Disney Infinity, Lego Dimensions, and Starlink: Battle for Atlas were all launched and discontinued within the same five year period.

Among Us 2 canceled — but don’t worry

Among Us, the viral online multiplayer game, was released in 2018 — two years ago. But its popularity peaked recently, in 2020. Developer InnerSloth had already announced a sequel, Among Us 2.
