Minesweeper Genius: Review and Gameplay Video

Minesweeper Genius By: Mother Gaia Studio  There are a few games that just the thought of them can bring me back to my childhood, and I have a very clear memory of playing Minesweeper on my dad's computer in the basement. I didn't pour hours into it like I did and do many other games, but it's a still a classic that's worth borrowing from. Mother Gaia Studio does so in…

Bloki: Gameplay Video and Impressions

Bloki By: Maksymilian Michalski Im always eager to try new puzzle games, especially when they look so different from anything I've ever played that I'm not entirely sure what's happening in the trailer.

ΓÇÿZero/SumΓÇÖ Review: Unskippable Cutscenes + Infrequent Save Points + Meaningless Progression = Zero

Zero/Sum By: Sean Kearney ╬ô├¬ΓîÉ╬ô├▓├╣╬ô├╢├ë The pitch for Sean Kearney's game, Zero/Sum, is that it's a math puzzle game combined with the cheesy storyline of an 80's B-movie, complete with live acting and absurdity. I confess, I wasn't all that excited about the math, but I love a good cheesy movie, and it was hard to pass up on the opportunity to cure cancer with puzzles. It turns out, the game delivers…
