Like most of you I’m getting impatient with all this waiting for Halloween, dammit they should rename October to just Halloween, but I digress. Since I have this itchy scab that’s Halloween that needs to be scratched, Headup Games came along and tore it off with Pumpkin Jack. Is the game worth having for this time of year? Let’s take a look. Pumpkin Jack takes place in a kingdom where peace is a fact of life, the devil found this boring and caused a curse that put the world into darkness and brought forth monsters to terrorize the people. The people called for a wizard to save them, so the devil called a champion to kill the wizard, Jack, a wandering spirit who had his soul put into a pumpkin. Jack sets out with an Owl and Crow companions to fight monsters and search for the Wizard. Now onto the game itself. When it comes to the game’s art, it’s

THQ Nordic again came through and gave me the opportunity to give the remastered version of a past hit of EA’s, Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning a try. The original RPG fantasy came out in 2012 and was praised highly by critics but today, I’ll be checking out THQ’s Kingdoms of Amalur: Re-Reckoning! In this game, you play as a hero who started off dead but because of an experiment, was brought back to life! You awaken to a world that’s at war pitting mortals and immortals against one another and because your fate has yet been decided, you’re caught up in the middle of it. Now onto the game itself! When it comes to controls they’re easy to get a hold of and the tutorial helps a lot in the beginning and the manual on the main menu is a lifesaver. Wish I could say the same for the camera controls which are, sorry to be blunt, trash as it
