DEADZONE: Rogue Review

Deadzone: Rogue is a roguelike FPS that takes you into the depth of space. Waking up with no recollection of who you are, or even WHERE you are, make your way through waves of enemies both mechanical and biological to figure out what the hell has happened and why you're here. Both developed and published by Prophecy Games, they've come into the FPS Roguelike space with guns blazing. As a massive fan of the genre, I was eager to sink my teeth into this one, and what I thought I was walking into did NOT end up being what I walked

Scarlet Tower Review

A bead of sweat slowly trickles down wind-stung cheeks. A damp trail cuts through the layers of dirt coating your face, leaving a streaky trail in its wake. Moist earth compacts: pine needles, grass, and weeds, bits of bark pressed deep underfoot. Forging ahead, your lithe fingers wrap firmly around the hilt of your sword. Only a fool would sheathe their weapon now. Not in this darkness. Not in this forest. Not on this journey.

Riftstorm Pre-alpha Review

Riftstorm pre-alpha test kind of surprised me because, usually in alpha tests there's like 2-3 hours of gameplay at most, but usually it's just one level of a game or a small chunk of the open world.
