Return to Castlerama Review
By Joe Jasko
There are many things that baffle me about Return to Castlerama, a 3D adventure game about a young herbalist's son who discovers his true noble identity and embarks on a quest to enact his own destiny. For one thing, the lack of features included in the game is pretty baffling. I'm also baffled why I even volunteered to review it in the first place. But the only thing more baffling to me is why somewhat felt a need to make this return to Castlerama (after the original Castlerama game from 2011), when one fleeting visit to this shoddy "photorealistic walk" is more than enough for any one lifetime.OUYA Review
By Jim Squires
I don't know how I feel about OUYA. For most of you the console is only a day old, so this may seem excusable; but as a Kickstarter backer, I had a head start on the general public. My OUYA arrived a month ago, which should be more than enough time to form a solid opinion. And yet I'm having a hard time making my mind up. That in itself speaks volumes about OUYA.Apothecarium – The Renaissance of Evil Review
By John Anthony
An unconventional hidden object game in many respects, Apothecarium - The Renaissance of Evil goes out of its way to give you your fair share of excitement. In addition to a good old fashioned story of medieval science and plagues, you'll come across monster battles, optional match-3 puzzles, plenty of mini-games, and more conjurer's tricks than you can shake an alchemist's glove at.Haunted Legends: The Curse of Vox Review
Wow. That's all that can be said really, of this pitiful entry in the Haunted Legends series. ERS Studios has become the poster child for hit-or-miss game development, and thanks to a nonsensical plot, lazy design, and sloppy execution, Haunted Legends: The Curse of Vox is definitely a miss.Cover Orange 2 Review
Some days are all sunshine, and some days you're an orange praying the omnipotent finger of the player will successfully use physics and whatever junk may be lying around to create a ramshackle roof over your head, because there's a cloud with a face wearing the helmet from Skyrim hell-bent on stoning you to death.Penny Arcade’s On the Rain-Slick Precipice of Darkness 4 Review
By Mike Rose
Penny Arcade's On the Rain-Slick Precipice of Darkness saga is finally coming to an end with Episode 4, having changed developer hands once along the way, and going off on many wonderfully ridiculous tangents at regular intervals. What hasn't changed throughout, however, is the focus on quality storytelling, and hilarious storytelling at that.Secret Passages: Hidden Objects Review
By Brandy Shaul
While Secret Passages: Hidden Objects from Pocket Gems isn't the first free-to-play hidden object game on iOS, it is one of the prettier options available. This mystery adventure takes players through secret passages connecting different eras and great civilizations as a young girl tries to solve the mystery of her father's disappearance years before. Secret Passages has lots of charm, and lots of lovely hidden object scenes to complete, but it ultimately suffers from its free-to-play model.Dream House Days Review
After numerous ventures into the mobile gaming space like Game Dev Story and the recent Pocket Stables, developer Kairosoft has released Dream House Days, their first attempt at a free-to-play title. It's an effort that feels slightly outside the Kairosoft norm, featuring ads and in-app purchases. However, the final result is a worthy addition to the Kairosoft family, though it lacks some of the detail that made its predecessors truly special.
