Reveal The Deep: A Scary Deal

Reveal The Deep is a small indie title made by the folks at Lazy Monday Games. This game has some rough pointy edges in the gameplay department, yet the level of detail and the amazing atmosphere of this game make me want to hold it close. The game may not win any awards, but I definitely give it my award of underrated indie game.

One of the things that I like about this game is that it creates a feeling of unsettling and uneasiness about the world. It does a good job of lulling the player... Read More

Stranded is one of those games that looks good at first glance then you beat it and wish you had your money back. I’ll be the first to admit that I don’t like writing negative reviews, especially when it’s a small indie company or even one person making the game.

I’ve also been following this game from watching it being played at EVO to watching random streamers. Needless to say I have been waiting for this game to come to pc for a very long time. So what makes this one of my favorite fighting games next to 3rd strike and CvS2? I will answer that question with... Read More

Year Walk: A Disturbing Thrill

Year Walk is a horror point and click game loosely based on Årsgång, the Swedish folk tradition that only the Swedish people could come up with. It involves people locking themselves up in a room without eating, drinking, or talking. At midnight the person would go to a church where they would blow into a keyhole and loose there Christianity. From there the “year walker” would then be visited by supernatural beings who would then test them. If the year walker was successful they would be able to see into the future. If that concept sounds... Read More
