Summum Aeterna wants to be the next big roguelite. Interestingly, it shines with its own light in what makes it different
All the influences that define Summum Aeterna are showcased to perfection from the very first playthrough. Which of course is good. The prequel to Aeterna Noctis rethinks its playable formula to be closer to the roguelite premise of Dead Cells, the level structure of Castlevania:…
Fall Guys free is missing the same thing we asked for when Fall Guys was released
After that August 5, 2020, it didn’t happen again. I saw my kids play a few times and stopped some streaming, but other than that I haven’t played Fall Guys again to this day. The game’s arrival in free-to-play format, with a free version for…
As Dusk Falls: His constant decision-making has given me a hard time, but that’s exactly why I need to keep playing
I’m not a particular fan of the series, I’ll admit that. Really, I only watched one cover to cover and out of moral obligation as Don Draper’s story couldn’t stay in the air. Game of Thrones, Stranger Things, Dark and many more storylines happened before…
Little Cities Review: Building cities in virtual reality is a wet dream for fans of the genre
I remember many of my childhood days playing Little Cities. How I assembled all my Playmobil sets on the typical street carpet, arranging the buildings as if they were parts of a city I traveled through as if I were a cautious Godzilla. I try…
When a controversy in a tournament is the key to overhauling the Magic: The Gathering rules
This is an initiative in partnership with Wizards of the Coast. There are people who say that the rules are meant to be broken, but I don’t think the Magic: The Gathering judges would be too happy with that statement. These titans know the ins…
Doom: Annihilation, a disastrous cinematic reboot made with (literally) four hellish costumes
Let’s be fair: DOOM: Annihilation is a disaster of a movie from start to finish, regardless of whether it’s based on a video game. But on the flip side, this was something that got in the league and without even having to see a single…
25 years of The Curse of Monkey Island, a turning point for Guybrush Threepwood and the graphic adventure genre
What makes Monkey Island so special? It can be his characters or the setting midway between dark fantasy (with a touch of voodoo magic) and the golden age of piracy; But it’s its dialogues, its puzzles, and how we’re invited to experiment with everything that…
A year of Magic: The Gathering. A year I’ll remember forever (I)
This is an initiative in partnership with Wizards of the Coast. It was a memorable year. Without a doubt one of the best I’ve experienced personally and professionally, and Magic: The Gathering and this Magic Chronicles have been an important part of that success. Now,…
Dolmen Analysis. Space sci-fi is punctuated by hard-hitting combat in a failed Souls replacement
If you want me to try out a video game, there are a number of words that will fall at your feet as soon as you say them. A mixture of Dark Souls and Dead Space it’s such an attraction my eyes can’t look away,…
We’re playing MultiVersus: Warner gathers its Superstars to take on Super Smash Bros. and brings good ideas to the game along the way
To be clear, the shadow of Super Smash Bros. is omnipresent in MultiVersus. At least during his first games. It lies in its patentable platform-brawler formula and in the chaotic development of its games. But unlike all the backup players that have popped up over…
