Fifteen years later, and this game is still as enjoyable as the first time. If you’ve played it before, this is the Afternoon of Darkness port with upgraded graphics; which adds several additional demon types, multiple extra characters to recruit, and Etna mode which consists of a story from her perspective and is about a…
Is Dark Souls the new zombie genre that everyone has to cash in on? Starting to look like the case as the game style has now been replicated by indie, AAA and everything in between companies. So here’s Immortal: Unchained, a game by a triple A indie company where you play a zombie with a…
Rainbow Skies combines an RPG overworld, turn based strategy combat, fourth wall breaking dialogue and monster taming into this indie style game which seems to have all the elements for a retro yet unique take on the genre.

Does every modern era game have to be about zombies or Nazis? JanduSoft says no. Here, have some delightful caveman antics in a retro caveman platformer that may evoke nostalgia of all those classics that if you’re under 25 you’ve never heard of. So is this a shining gem or a prehistoric turd? A bit…
It’s nice to see a good idea improved upon and the flaws mostly ironed out, and that’s what you get with this stand alone game. Of course, with the Revival Edition of the first on PS4 it’s convenient to try that one out if you wish but as this game has its own story with…
