‘Thimbleweed Park’ iOS Review: Retro Point-and-Click Gaming for the Modern Age

Thimbleweed Park By: Terrible Toybox (Ron Gilbert) As a point-and-click adventure fan, I knew I was supposed to be excited about Thimbleweed Park when it was announced, but I'd be lying if I didn't say I had mixed feelings.

I wasn't really sure what to expect, as I haven't played anything by thatgamecompany, even their most popular, Journey. I was a little concerned about the tilt control scheme, as I usually avoid games with…

‘Kensho’ Review: A Gorgeous Puzzler That’s Missing a Little Something

Kensh╬ô├╢Γò¥Γö£┬╝ By: FIFTYTWO What first attracted me to FIFTYTWO's new puzzle game, Kensh╬ô├╢Γò¥Γö£┬╝, were the gorgeous animations and lovey music in the App Store trailer video. I'm happy to say that that the game delivers every bit on both accounts. But what's hard to tell from that video is what that gameplay would be like, and that's unfortunately where the game falters a bit. In Kensh╬ô├╢Γò¥Γö£┬╝, you're following the story of a…
