    Infestor Review

    By

    War is a horrifying and bitter experience even in its most base form—that is, two walls of armed human beings throwing themselves at one another. But war is really hair-raising when it becomes subtle, shadowy, and sneaky. Infestor is a compelling, if straightforward, platforming/puzzle game that demonstrates how the loud work of an army can be done with a single, silent germ.

    Disney City Girl Review

    By

    The story of hopeful young people leaving behind their humble farm homes for the lights of the big city is as old as city life itself. When the first cities and towns were established, girls and boys left the country and battled crowds and homesickness to leave their names amongst the teeming masses. Disney City Girl is a Facebook social game that narrates the new, exciting life of one such gal, and her in-game efforts pay off far more than they would in the real world—but hey, who wouldn't like to have everything handed to them while living in New York City?

    Zen Training Review

    By

    I know little about zen training, Buddhism, meditation, or eastern philosophies/practices in general. When I need to relax, I tend to hug my cat and tick off the seconds until she turns from a stone-faced sourpuss into a slashing, yelling maelstrom. All that said, there's nothing really "zen" about Zen Training for iOS. It's not even particularly engaging or challenging, and it's definitely not relaxing in the least.

    Sela the Space Pirate Preview

    Have you ever dreamt of living a pirate's life—swashbuckling, treasure-hunting, scurvy—but stopped short of your goal because you can't swim? Well, why not become a space pirate? There's not a drop of water in the black reaches of space, though the lack of air and heat might not be to your liking, either. Maybe it'd be better to just stay at home and give space-pirating a try through Sela the Space Pirate, an action shooting game that's coming to iOS.

    Amaranthine Voyage: The Tree of Life Preview

    Odin's praise be upon Yggdrasil, the Tree of Life. Without the support of its massive branches, the heavens and earth would smash into each other like a badly-made sandwich, and oh, what a mess that would be. Sadly, few of us think to pay proper tribute to this mighty ash tree, but games like Amarinthe Voyage: Tree of Life, coming soon for PC, are on-hand to remind us that big, big trees are awesome in a big, big way.

    So you did a little kingdom-conquering in 2010's Kingdom Conquest, eh? You sure you conquered everything, though? Maybe you missed a spot. Maybe you overlooked some peasant cowering in the corner of a mud hut. No, huh? Well then, you're ready for Kingdom Conquest II, Sega's follow-up adventure/RPG for iOS.

    Village Life Review

    By

    If reality did a neat little flip and all the virtual villages and cities on Facebook suddenly popped onto our plane of existence, every inch of the planet would be covered in layers of half-built houses, buildings, skyscrapers, and dance halls. Almost every social city-building game revolves around throwing up as many structures as possible, which makes it all the easier to eventually abandon those soulless grey monoliths. But while Village Life for Facebook is yet another game about building up a community, its focus on people makes it a compelling social experience.

    Wave Trip Preview

    Some might say that human astronauts have the coolest possible jobs. Maybe they do, and maybe they don't. All we know for sure is that space travel can be tedious. Think of enduring all that cold, black space that's only dotted with a few points of distant light. The astronaut that zips through Lucky Frame's Wave Trip has a better idea: she travels through beautiful alien worlds on waves of actual sound. It's more exciting than eating a house made of freeze-dried ice cream.
