KOMRAD Review: KLASSIC KONUNDRUM

KOMRAD By: Sentient Play LLC After playing and thoroughly enjoying Telltale Games' and Nightschool Studio's Mr. Robot text-based TV show tie-in game, I was excited about another interactive fiction game, KOMRAD, by Sentient Play.

‘Samorost 3’ iOS Review: Gnome Man’s Sky

Samorost 3 By: Amanita Design I confess, it took me a little while to warm up to Amanita Design's Samorost 3. It's by far one of the most gorgeous games I've ever played, but for the first half hour or so I was frustrated due to poor signage. The game made me think something was part of a puzzle when it was just a toy. I spent 20 minutes on the first…

Gemini - A Journey of Two Stars By: Echostone Games LLC In Echostone Games' magical new iOS game Gemini, you control a star on a journey with another star to "light up the sky." It's a story told without words, and yet it's surprisingly powerful. The two stars must work together, because separately they can't soar. I'm not sure how others will interpret it, but to me it's about the importance of…
