    Nancy Drew: Warnings at Waverly Academy Review

    By

    Nancy Drew is many things: super sleuth, spa worker, entomologist, spelunker... But the one thing she rarely is anymore is just a kid. However, with Nancy Drew: Warnings at Waverly Academy, Nancy's age is finally an important part of the story.

    The Stolen Diamond Ring Review

    By

    Sometimes, it's nice to curl up and read a good book. But when was the last time you could play a book? In The Stolen Diamond Ring, a new title in the emerging "visual novel" genre, you are really interacting with a novel rather than a game, but its premise is definitely interesting, and worth more than a quick glance.

    Kitchen Brigade Review

    By

    Sometimes I wish that I lived in the Land of Casual Games. If I did, there would be a ridiculous number of restaurants, each serving the best quality foods they could muster while I stood there at the counter, hearts ticking away. If I could choose a restaurant to go to, Kitchen Brigade would be high on that list. In Kitchen Brigade you are a young, aspiring chef (are there any other kinds?) who just won a big cooking competition. Unfortunately, after taxes, tuition from cooking school and buying your own place, you're left with the shirt on your back and big dreams. But, not long after opening your restaurant, you're invited to join the Kitchen Brigade game show.

    The Shivah Review

    By

    When a game comes along that features a rabbi as the lead character, you can't help but do a double-take. In The Shivah, a point-and-click adventure game from Wadjet Eye Games, that's just what you'll do.You play as Rabbi Russell Stone, a man whose faith is dwindling almost as fast as his congregation. One evening after services, Stone is visited by a policeman, who tells him that a former member of his synagogue, Jack Lauder, has been killed. Apparently, Lauder left Stone a large sum of money, but Stone doesn't understand why Lauder would have left anything to him after the falling out they had years ago. Thus begins the mystery.

    Brainiversity 2 Review

    By

    Like the second volume of a textbook, 3 Blokes Studios has created another series of gray-matter exercises with Brainiversity 2. They've learned a little bit from their first outing, and added some new games to the routine. Brain training games really exploded when Nintendo released Brain Age for the Nintendo DS. It was a series of games that purportedly made your brain stronger by "exercising" different parts through targeted activities. Since then, there have been many different brain-training games from different studios. The first Brainiversity was a decent collection of games that had all the trimmings of a brain training game: a cute mascot, trackable progress and a nice selection of 16 games.

    Nancy Drew Dossier: Resorting to Danger Review

    By

    The first Nancy Drew Dossier game, Lights, Camera, Curses! was a great success. It managed to combine fun, accessible hidden object gameplay with logic puzzles, some arcade mini-games and the usual high-quality Nancy Drew production values and story into one great product. After many months of waiting, the second title of the series, Resorting to Danger! manages to repeat the same great formula while improving upon the few nagging issues with the first.

    Pizza Morgana: Episode 1 Review

    By

    Episodic releases are a pretty new thing for games. We've had a few successful releases (such as Tales of Monkey Island, or the Wallace and Gromit games, both by Telltale Games, and Amaranth Games' Aveyond series). Taking Uri Fink's successful Pizza Morgana comic and turning it into a game should be a piece of cake - or a slice of pizza. The problem is that the game ends just as it starts to cook.

    The Adventures of Fatman Review

    By

    The term "old-school" often refers to a throwback to an earlier time, an earlier culture. The Adventures of Fatman, a game made in 2003 by Socko! Entertainment and re-distributed by Wadjet Eye Games doesn't just feel old-school, it's practically ancient! But don't let the chunky graphics fool you; this is a hearty adventure, with a big, "fat" challenge.
