Paradise Killer Review (Nintendo Switch)

Jade Sayers August 17, 2021

Gervais D. August 17, 2021

RPGs are known for their turn-based or live-action combat. Not many mixes these elements together, but there has been a handful that made it work. Cris Tales is one such game, which mixes turn-based combat with this real-time element. Story Cris Tales tells the tale of the orphan girl, Crisbell,…

Poison Control Review (Nintendo Switch)

Rick S. August 3, 2021

When we think about Hell, we think about darkness, fire, suffering, and terror. We imagine Hell to look somewhat how Dante Alighieri portrayed it in his Inferno, and there has been a long list of games that draw from these depictions of Hell (e.g. Dante’s Inferno, Doom, Diablo, and Devil…

My Friend Pedro Review (Nintendo Switch)

Rick S. July 4, 2021

Pedro is the name of the funny, emoji-looking banana that tells the protagonist who to kill, provides little to no reason as to why, and then cracks jokes about the gruesome deaths. The player starts the game as the masked protagonist (who oddly resembles Smoke from Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six:…
