    Thomas Was Alone Review

    By

    Going into Thomas Was Alone, I thought I had it all figured out. "Interesting, a puzzle-platformer featuring a cast of different-shaped cubes," I said to myself. And, to an extent, I was correct. At face value, that is exactly what this game is. But I didn't anticipate how much I would care for those little cubes, or how excitedly I'd cheer them on in their quest for answers. I wanted nothing but the best for them.

    Little Inferno Preview

    I'm warning you: don't watch the video below. Don't do it. Seriously. I can't be held accountable for -- you watched it, didn't you? And its catchy, harmless, twisted tunes are stuck in your head, aren't they? Pacing unstoppably around your brain. Well, don't say I didn't warn you. I can't fully understand it, and I don't quite know what it's about, but I'll tell you this: Little Inferno has piqued my curiosity. And also invaded my ears.

    Turn off your lights and kick up your feet: it's time to pump up the volume hard enough to make you start seeing colors. Synesthetic for iOS is an object avoidance game with a loud, colorful premise: the songs on your iPod, iPhone, or iPad are turned into thrumming, pulsating worlds of rainbows and sound. Also, don't hold us liable if you actually pump your music that loud.

    Curiosity killed the app? Peter Molyneux reveals first independent project

    By

    Since his friendly defection from Microsoft Studios, video game industry legend Peter Molyneux has kept onlookers wondering what would come of his independent venture 22 Cans. For many, if only because the developer's grandiose vision and promises have become the stuff of legend (and parody). Thankfully, Molyneux is never one to disappoint during a big event, and yesterday announced Curiosity: 22 Cans' first app. Or experiment. Appsperiment?

    The Sandbox Review

    By

    Have you ever thought about how the world might be a sandbox, and God might be a kid just playing in it? That's, like, deep and stuff. It would explain the chaos that envelopes life at every moment, and we'd also have an answer for all the cat poop lying around. The Sandbox for iOS lets you muck around in your own digital universe, and heaven help whatever life form moves into your world of oil, steel, and fire.

    A Valley Without Wind Review

    By

    There's a certain sense of nostalgia that gets tapped into whenever I load up a 2D sidescrolling exploration platformer, or as their known now a "Metroidvania" experience. Long mornings turned into evenings as I went over every little pixel with every tool in my arsenal, to discover every passage to get every treasure in games like Symphony of the Night and Super Metroid. Recent indie release A Valley Without Wind wants to tap into that while throwing in the proverbial kitchen sink for good measure, so stick with me for a bit.
