As a fan of the Life is Strange series you may have found yourself looking at the series and debating which game is the best and you would not be alone in doing that. After all, many of us like pitting the things we love against each other in a battle royale to see which of them comes out on top....

With it being that time of year again (no, not that time of year, the other one), the temptation to find a particularly scary flick to get you in the mood for the annual spooky celebrations can be a strong one. Perhaps stronger still is the compulsion to take a more interactive role in such...

Want the best indie games in November? Of course, you do. With so many games released all the time, both AAA and Indie, it can be a little bit harder to know which ones you should be paying attention to. To make things harder, Indie games do occasionally appear out of nowhere and take over the...

Emerging from a team of developers at Atlus responsible for the legendary Persona JRPG series, Metaphor: ReFantazio is an all-new, tremendously promising genre effort that both embraces and iterates upon everything that made the Persona series so beloved in the first place. With that in mind,...

If you yearn for the thrill of seafaring adventures and the power to summon mythical beasts like the Kraken, Rogue Waters is your ticket to pirate paradise. As its name suggests, Rogue Waters is a roguelike, but one with a heavier emphasis on story than a lot of others in the genre. You take...

The best indie games in October have a surprising lack of general Halloween vibes. That’s not a complaint, it’s just an observation, but you never know, maybe we will get jumpscared by a few shadow drops as the month progresses. In the meantime though, we’ve made a little list of some of the...
