The Book of Unwritten Tales: Review

Posted on July 31, 2012 by Matthew Regier

In the humble year of 2009 a little known German company, King Art, went forth on the great task of breathing fresh air into what has otherwise been a stale and stagnated genre of fantasy adventure. The journey was long, dark, and difficult. Undergoing deep research on  the tropes that brought stagnation into the genre itself. This time however, it the adventure genre is as refreshing as can possibly be. The Book of Unwritten Tales is a stimulating look at the fantasy adventure genre that gives the player a great story which is thick with parody that will give any

Resonance Review

Posted on July 26, 2012 by Seung Lee

Resonance
I’m indifferent, actually, towards point-and-click adventure games and visual novels. But, if it has a great story, likable characters, and lots of humor, I’ll at least try it. That being said, Resonance has to be one of the best point-and-click games I’ve ever played. It ranks up there with the Ace Attorney series (my favorite video game series), Monkey Island series, and Sam & Max series. Resonance has you playing as four main characters: Tolstoy “Ed” Eddings, Anna Castellanos, Raymond Abbot, and Officer Winston Bennet. Ed is a mathematician who works for a physicist named Dr. Javier Morales. He struggles

The Broken Joysticks Top 5: Nostalgic Pick Me Up RPGS

Posted on July 24, 2012 by Eric Bastelak

Greeting dear readers, you will have to excuse my infrequent posts as of late as I prepare for a big move I’m finding myself with less time. Chores, apartment viewings, work and, Rainbow Moon (Yes that review will be posted VERY soon). As life keeps throwing curve balls at me I tend to get depressed. When I get down I always seem to gravitate to immersive games from my childhood. I get wrapped up in these games. They provide an escape which can be a great break from reality. I always come back feeling refreshed ready to tackle whatever life

Through the magic of emulation SNK Playmore have brought back a few of their older titles for the modern generation to experience. When we say older, I mean just about as old as our staff members.
