Double Fine S Mountain Simulator Is Oddly Enthralling

It seems as though with each passing day, a new “simulator” title decides to rear its head. While some titles in the currently-exploding genre play off of intentionally broken gameplay mechanics like the infamous Goat Simulator, others are almost devoid of gameplay altogether. Mountain - an aptly-named mountain simulator - fits into the latter but rather than being a farce, it stands out as the genre’s most earnest experience to date....

Dragon Age 4 Can Learn From Origins Villains

BioWare has kept many of the details about its upcoming fantasy RPG Dragon Age 4 close to its chest, but its villain will come as no surprise to most fans of the franchise.

Dragon Quest Builders Review

Square Enix takes a JRPG classic fuses it with elements of Minecraft in Dragon Quest Builders, creating a unique spin on the genre that enthralls even when it stumbles. The Dragon Quest franchise can be a bit of an enigma for Western gamers who aren’t well-versed in the JRPG genre. Despite Square Enix consistently localizing and repackaging games - look no further than Dragon Quest 7: Fragments of the Forgotten Past for the Nintendo 3DS to see the process first-hand - the Dragon Quest series has remained well-behind other giants like Final Fantasy when it comes to coverage exposure in North America and Europe....

Ea Fires Shot At Denver Broncos Super Bowl Loss

Electronic Arts has been predicting real life game results from their EA Sports simulation engines for years now. From Madden to FIFA and back again, they’ve (mostly accurately) predicted winners and champions stretching back to the ’now ancient’ days of the PlayStation 2. Of course, game simulations are not always accurate despite Madden’s 8-for-10 correctly predicted Super Bowl wins over the last decade. So, when the Madden 25 Ignite Engine dropped the ball this year, EA turned it into an opportunity to both make a good joke and take a shot at the losing team....

Ego Protocol Remastered Review

Originally released in 2016 for PC, the original Ego Protocol is described as an addictive “action-packed puzzle platformer.” This seems to be a bit of a generous description for everything other than the “puzzle” part, which comes on full-force in Ego Protocol: Remastered, available now for the Nintendo Switch. Ego Protocol: Remastered won’t appeal to the masses, but puzzle fanatics will have a blast with the game’s Rubix Cube-like challenges....
