Culdcept Begins Review
Culdcept Begins offers a vibrant hybrid of board game and monster-battling concepts, but it struggles to find its own identity. Its shallow narrative and over-reliance on randomness prevent it from standing out.
Dragon Quest I & II HD-2D Remake Review
This collection completes the classic Dragon Quest trilogy with its beautiful HD-2D style and full orchestral soundtrack. It is a worthwhile return to the games that made the JRPG genre what it is today.
Class of Heroes 3 Remaster Deep Look
It took 15 years for Class of Heroes 3 to come to Western shores. Lackluster implementation of many promising features points to the remaster being not quite worth the wait.
