Road 96: Mile 0 (PC) Review

Mike Reitemeier — Tue, 04 Apr 2023 15:00:00 +0000

One of the few games I’ve given a perfect 10 reviewing here was Sayonara: Wild Hearts, a title with gameplay I can’t get out of my head and a heartfelt emotional experience. With only a gameplay trailer to go off of, I saw Road 96: Mile 0 was coming up and knew I wanted to dive into this adventure mere seconds into the trailer. I loved the thought of traversing a level with music as the visual…

Floodland (PC) Review

Matthew Lomas — Fri, 02 Dec 2022 20:00:31 +0000

In a world where settlement survival and management games are rather popular, Floodland was one that truly seemed to capture my eye when I first saw the trailer for it. It had been quite a while since I had picked up one of these and this seemed to be a wonderful way to see how the genre has evolved. However, while the story of Floodland is a great cautionary tale, the gameplay leaves much to be…

Road 96 (Xbox One) Review

I’m a huge fan of narrative-focused games, so when Road 96 was announced, I knew it would be my kind of game. Additionally, with its somewhat recent addition to Xbox Game Pass, I went ahead and played it. I finished the game within a couple of days. The game kept me hooked from start to finish, and it was overall a really fun experience. The game has you playing as different teens each going on…

Road 96 Gets PlayStation and Xbox Release Window

Alexx Aplin — Mon, 14 Feb 2022 14:00:53 +0000

DigixArt and Ravenscourt’s Road 96 was one of the standout games for me last year. Combining political intrigue with personal, heartfelt stories and a procedurally generated gameplay experience was nothing short of masterful. I’m very excited to hear that Road 96 will be coming to more platforms, specifically PlayStation and Xbox consoles in April. While no specific release date was given…

Monday, another violent Italian is coming to the Switch (Mario was already there), and I used the word acquisition more times this week than I have in my entire life. Tuesday, a pretty game was coming to the Switch, Steam will be holding a sale soon, another free-to-play game is happening, and you’ll be able to build early access sandcastles in the dunes. Wednesday, Microsoft put down a $70…

Dice Legacy (PC) Review

Jonathan Isenhour — Wed, 08 Sep 2021 17:00:25 +0000

Dice Legacy is a Roguelike City-Builder game and is the second Steam release from DESTINYbit. The central focus of the game is to expand your empire forward on a ringworld and reach the end of the continent to win a run. The music and aesthetics of the game are designed around a medieval theme. Early buildings are made of wood and have straw roofs. Tile roofs and stone buildings become more…

Relicta (PC) Review

Mike Reitemeier — Tue, 11 Aug 2020 18:00:09 +0000

Puzzle games are easily the most hit-or-miss in gaming. There are greats like Portal, The Talos Principle, and Obstruction, but also polarizing titles like Myst, Superliminal, and Bad Rats. It’s tough to create a game that’s a head-scratcher not thanks to its mechanics, but to genuinely thought-provoking design. Mighty Polygon’s Relicta looks to join the ranks of the greats with its gravity…
