    Mighty Dungeons Review

    By

    Mighty Dungeons bills itself as a cross between old-school board games like Hero Quest and Warhammer Quests and videogames like Diablo and Dungeon Master, but the truth is that it's a fairly straightforward roguelike. This isn't necessarily a bad thing, and as roguelikes go it's certainly gussied up in its Friday finest, but I think it's important to establish what we're really looking at here: a  top-down dungeon crawler with simple, repetitive gameplay.

    Kickstarter Picks: Planet Explorers

    By

    The team behind Planet Explorers obviously believes in the old adage of "go big or go home," because this game promises to be very big indeed. An action-adventure RPG with 4X elements, it will follow a team of interstellar colonists whose ship crashes on its target planet, leaving them trapped and sorely underequipped on a hostile world. Now they must salvage what they can, explore the world, build, fight, survive and ultimately establish a viable, durable new home for themselves and their descendants.

    Cheesy Chess Review

    By

    Cheesy Chess is a cute, challenging logic puzzler with very simple rules based on the timeless game of chess, but it suffers somewhat from a lack of gameplay variety. Chess aficionados (or those who aspire to be) may love it, but the truth is that once you've seen one level, you have, for all practical purposes, seen them all.

    First-person shooters are cool. Tower defense games are cool. It only makes sense, then, that putting them together will result in coolness squared, which is what Coffee Stain Studio is aiming for with Sanctum 2.

    Go Home Dinosaurs Review

    By

    Go Home Dinosaurs is a cute little game that channels a serious Plants vs. Zombies vibe into a more conventional tower defense setting. It doesn't have quite the refinement of its world-famous predecessor, but its blend of simple gameplay and family-friendly styling make it worth some attention, especially if you're after some light digital entertainment for your kids that doesn't take itself too seriously.
