Blazing Bit Games’ retro FPS Nightmare Reaper had a successful launch on Steam and now has found itself on console thanks to Feardemic! So what made this “Boomer Shooter” (as some of you so-called 90’s kids are calling it) great on PC? We’ll have to take a look! I want to thank both Blazing Bit Games and Feardemic for sending over a copy! The game follows a patient who is locked away in a sanitarium for unknown reasons to the player. The patient goes to sleep and is in a nightmarish world where she fights monsters. Now onto the game itself. Nightmare Reaper‘s controls will have to take some time to get used to for controllers as some of the buttons you are used to using for traditional uses like jumping and interacting are mapped out differently with these controls, so time to get used to them is required! The sound of Nightmare Reaper is pretty good and the soundtrack

Thanks to popular shows like Stranger Things, tabletop RPGs like Dungeons & Dragons are becoming more popular with newer players and reigniting the passionate flame within old fans who were once made to give it up. But like a good RPG story, the adventure has to start somewhere. With many sites and stores dedicated to tabletop gaming supplies, where should a new adventurer go? This is where Misty Mountain Gaming comes in! I want to give a big thank you to Sophii and the rest of the awesome folks over at Misty Mountain for helping to make this review possible! Misty Mountain sent over the Mystery Sling Bag Bundle, the price may be shocking but it’s worth it if you want to start off your new gaming life or you want to improve it and wow your friends at the next session! you get a total of 35 dice that are randomly selected, three sets of acrylic dice, an all-metal

Today comic publisher Valiant Entertainment and indie game developer Blowfish Studios have announced that they’re teaming up to bring the best-selling fan-favorite comic book character Shadowman back in an all-new horror adventure game Shadowman: Darque Legacy. The game’s description is as follows: “As a conspiracy threatens to overrun the realm of the living, Shadowman must contend with horrifying inhuman entities with challenging melee combat. Follow a dark path from the land of the living to the hellish realm of the Deadside as you cross the veil between both. Embody the hero of the dark to traverse the necromantic divide, overcome dastardly obstacles, and silence the terrifying threats lurking within.” From the sounds of it, Shadowman: Darque Legacy could potentially be either an action RPG or a Souls-like game. Either way, fans of the old games as well as fans of the comics can look forward to 2024 for the game’s release on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X/S.

I’m not alone when I say I’m not looking forward to summer’s approach and would rather have autumn again and enjoy the wonder and fun of Halloween. Saona Studios is here to scratch that Halloween itch with Death or Treat where you must save Halloween (or at least Hallowtown). Death or Treat follows a little ghost named Scary who runs a mobile candy shop called Ghost Mart. Business should be good in Hallowtown but larger corporations are stealing customers, forcing Scary to take a stand. Now onto the game itself! The controls for Death or Treat are pretty simple as this is a hack-and-slash kind of game with platforming so it’s pretty basic. The soundtrack is pretty good and fits the tone of the game as well as its art. Speaking of art, I really like the animation of the game’s cutscenes and gameplay, definitely can tell it’s hand-drawn, or at least colored in by hand, it flows quite smoothly

Souls games are known for being tough, gritty, and dark. 505 Games and Point Blank Games have challenged the Souls game genre with Stray Blade, how does it stack up with some other Souls games? Stray Blade follows an adventurer named Farren who while on an adventure has now found themselves in an unfamiliar world he must explore with his otherworldly companion Boji while fighting off enemies that are pursuing them on their adventure. Now onto the game itself! The controls for Stray Blade are a touch confusing at first I’ll admit but having access to review the control scheme and having a tutorial helps. I don’t know if I just suck at my timing but I feel that the parry button is broken, no matter how much I time it I can’t parry but thankfully the dodge button works! Stray Blade‘s sound design will need some tweaking when you first play depending on where you have the sound coming

Cococucumber is an indie game studio that’s been making a splash in the ocean of game development with its interesting titles. I’ve been lucky enough to get the opportunity to experience their latest title, Ravenlok. I would like to thank Cococucumber for letting me take a trip through the looking glass with this one. Ravenlok is a Voxel art-style game in the third person where players take on the role of a girl who is brought into a magical world where a prophecy foretold her intervention and bringing peace back to the dark lands that are becoming corrupted by an evil queen. Now onto the game itself. The controls for Ravenlok are surprisingly minimal but satisfyingly simple. The game responds well to a controller (which is suggested for use for PC players, I know, clutch the pearls PC folks.). The game’s soundtrack actually has quite a chill vibe to it, I love how the level song changes its intensity depending

Everything is fine till the Vampires move in. That’s what happens in Arkane Studios and Bethesda’s Redfall. Players have been teased with the game for a while with some fearing it would end up in production hell as a result but here we are and Arkane and Bethesda reached out and gave me the chance to go to Redfall to fight some vampires to which I’m very grateful for the opportunity! Redfall is about an island in Massachusetts that has become overrun with vampires and cultists that allied themselves with them. After the island is sealed off from the mainland and the sun is eclipsed, four survivors teamed up to face the horrors ahead. Now onto the game itself! Redfall‘s controls are basic for an FPS game, so veterans of these kinds of games will have a leg up on the bloodsuckers. Headphones are a must, I know I say that a lot, but in this game there are secrets
