Hi everyone! Last week I switched My Week Unwrapped to Mondays so I'm not rushing to get it out Sunday night. So far, that's been working great, but this is an insanely busy week for games that are both already out or releasing this week...even tomorrow! I'm trying to complete some games before release so I can review them, so my blurbs this week might be on the short side. In any…
Thimbleweed Park By: Ron Gilbert Update: Thimbleweed Park is now out on iOS! I've heard that Ron Gilbert's Thimbleweed Park is inspired by the television show, Twin Peaks, but I didn't really know what that meant until I started watching the 1990 show about a week ago. While I'm still early on in the show, its quirkiness has piqued my interest in the game. And there's obviously some X-Files stuff going on…
Lately, I've been very interested in solitaire card games that offer a quick play when you have a few minutes to spare, or a hook that keeps me playing until I lose track of time. Being in portrait mode and playable with one hand is a must if it's going to keep me coming back for more, as I tend to only use my iPad for long, immersive games like point-and-click adventures.…
Bertram Fiddle: Episode 2: A Bleaker Predicklement By: Rumpus Animation Update: The game is out! See my review here. If you liked the first episode of the puntastic point-and-click adventure, Bertram Fiddle, you'll be happy to hear that after many delays, the second episode, A Bleaker Predicklement, is finally releasing this Thursday, August 24th. While I've not completed the game yet, I have spent a good chunk of time with it and…
Hi everyone, and welcome back to My Week Unwrapped! I've been very busy, though I haven't written many articles this week. I do have lots of videos to share, most of released games but also some previews. If you're looking for something new to play, this is a good place to find it! Cosmic Express Despite the many games I played this week, I had some time to spare and had an…
Hi everyone and welcome to another installment of My Week Unwrapped, where I talk about what I've been playing all week. It's been pretty busy and I also have a lot to say about some of these games. They're almost full reviews. Hopefully you'll find them useful! So without further ado, let's begin! All That Remains: Part 1 Although I played Glitch Games' new first-person point-and-click adventure, All That Remains: Part 1,…
Hi everyone and welcome to another installment of My Week Unwrapped, where I recap all the games I've been playing over the last week. I've been pretty busy, though much of it has been with the same games. Still, some quality games to talk about today. FRAMED 2 As I mentioned last week, Loveshack's FRAMED 2 released and I wrote both a review and walkthrough. If you liked the first game, I…
All That Remains By: Glitch Games It should be no surprise to anyone by now that I'm a big fan of Glitch Games. I've been following their work since they released a little demo they made during a game jam, and they've since proven themselves to be quite the devilish adventure game designers. Tricky puzzles abound in all of their games. And while Forever Lost might be over, they're not done exploring…
