The Siege and the Sandfox is a beautifully crafted “stealthvania” that blends classic Metroidvania explorations with smooth, stealth mechanics reminiscent of old-school platformers.

Shroom and Gloom (Steam) – Preview

Team Lazerbeam has surprised me with Shroom and Gloom. This weird little card-based dungeon crawler ended up being way more engaging than I expected. I thought I was jumping into a quirky deck-builder with some mushrooms and spooky vibes, but it was a super thoughtful, well-crafted experience with a ton

Towerborne (Xbox Series X) – Review

Towerborne was a title I had not seen much coverage for in my doom-scrolling of social media. Then, on one of my regular checks to titles coming to the Xbox Game Pass, I discovered a title that visually grabbed my attention and appealed to my old-school side-scrolling gaming days. Initially

TRON: Catalyst (Steam) – Preview

In the 80s, Disney’s TRON captured the vision of being dragged into a sci-fi world in a game-like world. While it probably looked cool then, it’s not as high-tech as it could’ve been. Since the original film, there have been additional films with TRON: Legacy (2010) and another movie this

‘Willow Guard’ might wear its influences boldly on its gilded sleeves, but it is a quirky romp into monster hunting.
