We Previewed Last Encounter at PAX East, Now The Game is Available on Steam
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.
State of Decay 2 PAX East Hands-On Preview
There is nothing like a good zombie killing game, right? Pretty sure during PAX East itself, a lot of us were zombies (both press and developers) as we were on our feet for four days on the show floor. Along with that, we’ve have had many games over the years including the Left 4 Dead series, the Dead Rising series, and so many zombie-themed indie games as well. This year at PAX East 2018, ...[Read More]

Red Dead Redemption 2 Trailer #3 Released by RockStar Games
It’s safe to say that Red Dead Redemption 2 is one of, if not the most anticipated game of 2018. It certainly is for me. As much as the game has been hyped up, there’s very little information to go off of except for the game’s narrative, which is supposedly taking place before the events of Red Dead Redemption. This was all shown in the game’s first two trailers, and luckil...[Read More]
TERA: Enhancing The MMORPG Action For Consoles
To all of you TERA fans out there playing on the PlayStation 4 or the Xbox One, En Masse Entertainment is rolling out their next series of events and content releases for you this month!
Dungeon Stars PAX Preview
One of the other games that caught my eye at PAX East was Dungeon Stars, a new Roguelite (or is that Roguelike-like?) from indie developer and publisher Furnace Games and Riposte Games & Co.
Trailmakers PAX East Preview
When we last covered Trailmakers here on Marooners’ Rock, it was for the game’s initial rollout on Steam Early Access. With its subsequent inclusion in the Indie Megabooth’s 100 games at PAX East, I was able to get some hands-on time with the game and chat for a few minutes with a couple of the developers from Flashbulb Games.
Destination Primus Vita PAX Preview and Writer’s Choice Award Winner
A little bit of Myst, a dash of System Shock, a slice of life in cryosleep on the USCSS Nostromo, and a hearty helping of The Expanse. That’s how I would describe Destination Primus Vita, the science fiction first-person mystery series being developed by Epsilon Games.
Far Cry 5: Stupid Fun, But Wasted Potential
After the massive success of Far Cry 3, Ubisoft had set a high standard for any future installments, which led the mixed reception of Far Cry 4 as it didn’t change much from it’s predecessor. That being said, I’ve always seen the Far Cry franchise as the fun summer blockbusters of the gaming industry. They aren’t going to win Game of the Year, but gamers won’t deny that they had a blast with it. W...[Read More]
