Her Story By: Sam Barlow **Note: If you haven't already finished playing "Her Story," turn back now. There are SPOILERS ahead!** I've recently been interviewing creator Sam Barlow and actress Viva Seifert about the full-motion video (FMV) murder mystery game Her Story. If you've played the game (and if you're reading this, I hope you did), you may have come across the video clips in which she sings an altered version of…
July 4th is about independence yada yada... and a time when a lot of games go on sale in the iOS App Store. This year is no different, as the sales seem to be hitting a few days early. I'll be posting the ones I think are worth noting and updating this list as I find more. Implosion - Never Lose Hope by Rayark Inc. is on sale for $4.99, down from…
I am taking a break from my Her Story obsession to bring you the exciting news that the third and final episode of Glitch Games' gloomy puzzle adventure, Forever Lost, has an official release date! I've played through the game several times and I think fans will be very satisfied with the conclusion to the series.

Til Morning's Light By: Amazon Game Studios & WayForward A while back, I heard about a game called Til Morning's Light, being developed by WayForward. The game was originally supposed to be an exclusive for Amazon Fire devices, which made me really sad. Not sad enough to buy an Amazon device instead of iOS, but it's the first time the thought even crossed my mind. Well, it turns out Amazon Game Studios…
Legend of Grimrock By: Almost Human ltd. I recently wrote a review for the brutal dungeon crawler Legend of Grimrock by Almost Human. It was originally made for PCs, but they recently ported it to iPad. It plays beautifully and I've been enjoying it quite a bit. It's a challenging game and will likely take me a while to complete. But Petri H╬ô├╢┬úΓö£ΓûÆkkinen of Almost Human confirmed on Twitter today that the…

Detective Dixie: The Revenge of Wishteria By: Lukman Gunawan (Giant Leap Games If you're a fan of point-and-click adventure games or murder mysteries, you may want to check out Detective Dixie, which just hit the App Store. It features a hand-drawn fantasy setting full of quirky characters. I only played a few minutes so far and found the grammar mistakes to be too distracting for such a text-heavy game. Still, it's 100%…
