It is a simple ball game. The cursor is set to the place with the ball and the shot button is pushed. He’s not wrong there. Craggy balls ahoy in this simple ball game where the cursor is set to the place with the ball and the shot button is pushed. Did we mention the [...]

Anyone who started gaming with the SNES or later can just turn away and go about your business right now. This is not the game for you, and you are unlikely to understand how it could hold any appeal. For those who spent years gaming on 8-bit home computers, though, this nouveau retro game could [...]

Well, I’ll be dipped if I can recall what the name of the original game was, but I know I’ve played more than one variation of it over the years. That “push balls into balls of the same color with physics” game. You know the one? Gogs is that game, too.

Ah, the end of the school holidays, the return of life as we know it. Time, if ever, to take a look at some more games. First off the block, Jungle Blocks. We all know the drill by now with Breakout don’t we? There’s a bat, there’s some blocks, hit the blocks with a ball [...]

NINJA TRAIN is a three-level score-attack game where you use your ninja skills to run, jump, shadow-clone and cape-glide your way to as many gold coins as possible. It’s replete with lovely chunky pixels and luscious music, but the control seems a bit non-responsive at times and the view from a train traveling parallel obscures [...]

It’s baaaaaaaack! After being pulled from the service seven or eight months ago for an overhaul, Block Fight! has popped up again. However, aside from some graphical improvement (and possibly some AI tweaks, unless I’m imagining the computer playing a bit better), nothing much has changed. The menu screen with the “XBox Live” selection that [...]

And so, the fourth title to be reviewed that begins with ‘Battle’ is Battle Ball. Although it’s less of a battle with the ball, but more of a battle with yourself at how long you can continue playing this dull pong clone without your brain liquifying and slowly dribbling out your nose. Battle Ball is [...]

You held me up. Held me down. Made me crazy then you brought me around. Were my darkness and my light. You were my blindness and my sight. Were my shelter and my storm. Made me cold then you made me warm. You were my fever and my cure. Made me doubt and you made [...]
