A visual novel that’s both an investigative mystery, and a tour guide to a certain Japanese town. Amr takes a look at Root Letter: Last Answer. 

A quick look at Minoria, the follow up to Bombservice’s Momodora games. It plays with similar ideas and influences as Momodora, and its strengths are largely the same, but misses on a few marks. 

A quiet look at FAR: Lone Sails, a traveling game where you drive a grand but fragile machine through the wide country. 

 It takes some cues from cinematic platformers and reformats them to a kinder, but still moody world.

A solo look at Overclocked, a free, futuristic platformer with great production, a detailed story and slick animations. 

 If you love fast paced platformers, building up combos and shaving seconds off a run you’ll be into this for sure.

Curly returns to help me take a look at Lethal League Blaze, a fighting game where you bounce a ball around the stage until it builds up time distorting levels of speed through your volleys. 

It’s a hell of a sequel with a hype soundtrack to boot.

Sam joins me again to take a look at The Void Rains Upon Her Heart, a corny but very earnest game about loving the monsters that have come to break your heart in the midst on an endless rain.

Sam joins me again to take a look at Imperishable Memories, a shooter that cites, Tohou, Nier, Ikaruga, Evangelion and other big names as inspiration for its angsty teenage drama.

Sam once again joins me to take a look at…a shmup? A fighting game? How about both? 

 Following in the style of Twinkle Star Sprites and Change Air Blade, Rival Megagun tasks you destroying chains of enemies to send attacks to your opponent. And if that’s not good enough, feel free to change into your boss form and take them down yourself. 

 We had a lot of fun playing this one, and if the concept sounds remotely interesting you should try this one out.
