The Simply Charming Fun of Crow Country
I’ve said this in the past but sometimes games do not need to be innovative to be good. You don’t need to reinvent the wheel every time you make a car. Sometimes just sticking to what works and doing a really good job at that is more than enough to catch someone’s eye and that’s…

No, seriously. Stop making Silent Hill Games.
So if you tuned into last week’s podcast, first of all thanks for doing that and second of all you probably heard me rant for awhile about how Silent Hill hasn’t been good in ages and Konami just needs to stop making them at this point because it’s clear they really have no idea how…

SIGNALIS: Surpassing your Inspirations
It’s kind of crazy to think about how many once great and massive franchises are now dead in the water, seemingly forgotten by those that hold the rights to them.

Psychological Horror – Horror that sits with you
To end this month of horror game related posts, I thought I’d talk about what might be my favorite kind of horror, and that’s psychological horror! Unlike with shock horror, that mainly focuses on things like jump scares and freaky imagery, psychological horror generally requires a bit more thought. It focuses more on dread and…
