    Rush Bros. Review

    By

    If I told you that Rush Bros. took the platforming style of Super Meat Boy, with traps generated based on the music tracks you import into the game - plus a multiplayer mode reminiscent of Sonic 2 - then you may well jump onto the opportunity without reading the rest of this review. But that would be an unwise move, as Rush Bros. doesn't exactly deliver on its promise. There's definite potential in the level design and the focus on speed runs, but the controls simply aren't tight enough, and the music import feature is pretty flaky.

    Green City 2 Review

    By

    Green City 2 is the latest in a long line of "real estate" time management games like Build-a-Lot, and it follows up the release of the original Green City that was released earlier this year. This sequel is almost identical to its predecessor, and simply offers dozens of fun new levels for players looking to continue cleaning up the world, one trash-ridden level at a time.

    Dragons and Titans Review

    By

    Solitary grumps like Smaug notwithstanding, dragons are team players. If they weren't, there's no way they'd let you and four other players ride them in Dragons and Titans, a MOBA from Wyrmbyte and Zynga that you can play for free on Facebook. And since the other side of every five-on-five clash has scaly mounts of its own, that's 10 dragons per battle. See? Team players.

    Dark Parables: The Final Cinderella Review

    By

    Bet you didn't know there was more than one Cinderella. It's kind of late in the game to find that out, though, as Dark Parables: The Final Cinderella tells the tale of the very last one. The thousand-year-old Godmother is turning girls into glass in an attempt to locate the one pure-hearted maiden. It's your job, detective, to find Cinderella and keep her safe. A walk in the park, right?

    Super Puzzle Platformer Deluxe Review

    By

    Sometimes you play a game so simple yet so effective that it leaves you wondering why no one has done it before. Meet Super Puzzle Platformer Deluxe, a sort of Tetris match-3 and platformer mash-up that gives as good as it gets. With twinges of Spelunky in there too, this fast-paced, quick-thinking blaster will kill you every few minutes, and yet you'll keep coming back for more. The soundtrack is sublime, the controls are spot-on, and the challenge is very, very real. What I'm saying is, you're going to love this game.

    Grimm Reaper: Hidden Tales Review

    By

    The world of light and bright fairy tales has been turned dark and sinister as characters like Jack (from Jack and the Beanstalk) have been trapped inside books in Grimm Reaper: Hidden Tales. Once you've downloaded this free-to-play world onto your computer, though, all of the charm behind the game's setup is quickly shoved aside in favor of all-too-frequent pay walls and repetitive gameplay.

    Godsrule: War of Mortals Review

    By

    Longtime readers of this site may know I have a problem with the current explosion of social strategy games. By the time you've played your twentieth variation of the same formula, they've all started to blur together into a confused jumble of housing, farms, and amicable quest givers. I think I've forgotten the names of most of them. And that's why I found myself looking so forward to Godsrule: War of Mortals. For one, it was published by Sega, whose name still evokes awesomeness despite the many years since the glory days of Sonic the Hedgehog; and for another, it promised to deliver a brand of social strategy combat worth paying attention to. Here, I'd hoped, was a social strategy game worthy of the gods.

    Jewel Legends: Atlantis Review

    By

    As far as match-three games go, there's plenty of room for change and innovation; unfortunately, few developers seem inclined to use it. The new deep-sea-themed match-three game Jewel Legends: Atlantis falls firmly into that un-expansive camp. Although a prime example of established mechanics, the game does nothing whatsoever to advance the match-three genre.
