Vandals: Review and Gameplay Videos

Vandals By: ARTE Experience (Cosmografik) ╬ô├¬ΓîÉ╬ô├▓├╣╬ô├╢├ë Cosmografik's Vandals is the latest turn-based puzzle game in the style of Square Enix's GO series, like Hitman GO (HMG), Lara Croft GO (LCG) and Deus Ex GO (DEG).

It raised the bar for what a mobile puzzle…

Never Stop Sneakin’: iOS Gameplay Videos and Impressions

Never Stop Sneakin' By: Humble Hearts LLC Humble Hearts' Never Stop Sneakin' released a little over a month ago on PC and one of the complaints was that it felt like a mobile game. So when it made its way over to iOS this week, that wasn't necessarily a reason not to buy it. I was curious about its top-down stealth gameplay with simplified one-finger controls, especially since it could be played…

ΓÇÿGorogoaΓÇÖ iOS Review: Simply Awe-Inspiring

ΓÇÿReigns: Her MajestyΓÇÖ Review: The Regina Dialogues

Reigns: Her Majesty By: Devolver Digital Last year, the stylish and unique Reigns released, a game designed specifically for touchscreens, where the main controls are simply swiping left or right to make binary decisions.

Details of the new game weren't revealed yet. Instead, a fake company called Veritas Industries that has its foot in every aspect of, well...everything, said it was looking for human subjects for its Insomnium project. I wrongly…
