City of the Shroud PAX Preview
When I sat down for my demo of City of the Shroud, I really didn’t know what to expect. As an isometric RPG, it’s poised to take a position in the ranks of classically-styled RPG games that have begun coming out in the past few years. Beginning with Pillars of Eternity, the genre has been experiencing a renaissance in the past few years; a pretty amazing turn around for a game style that was decla...[Read More]
Horizon Chase Turbo PAX Hands-On Preview
Being only the tender age of 19, I am too young to feel adequate nostalgia for the 80s and 90s racing games. I can, however, recognize a beautiful game when I see one. Which is exactly what Horizon Chase Turbo by Aquiris Game Studios is.

YIIK: A Post-Modern RPG Impressions from PAX East
Y2K. For a time in 1999, these three characters could strike dread into the hearts of millions, possibly billions of people. Banking computers would forget their data. Air traffic control would go dark. Electric grids would fail! It was a doomsday scenario that everyone was going to live through, because the one that can never, ever be stopped is the inexorable march of time. Now Ysbryd Games is b...[Read More]
My Memory of Us PAX East Hands-On Preview
Perhaps my favorite game at PAX this year was My Memory of Us by Juggler Games. Taking place under Nazi occupation, the player takes the controls as a tag team little boy and girl. In spite of possessing the adult themes of the Holocaust, My Memory of Us manages to make this game that is suitable for almost all ages. By replacing actual Nazis with “Bad Robots” they create an adventure puzzler that...[Read More]

Available today for everyone on Steam, Last Encounter is a top-down, twin-stick shooter with heavy weapon customization and a few roguelike influences. I got a chance to go hands-on with the game this year at PAX East, and garner a few impressions ahead of today’s PC launch.
Above – A PAX East Preview
Only on the show floor for two of the four days of PAX East this year, it would have been easy to miss Above, tucked into its corner of the Indie Megabooth. I’m glad I didn’t do that. This whimsical, top-down story of aviation, adventure, and exploration captured my imagination to become a game I’ll be eagerly awaiting in 2019.
