At first glance, Shadow Labyrinth promises a dark, reimagined take on PAC-MAN—a surreal journey into a cyberpunk nightmare. But beneath the eerie lighting and brooding aesthetic lies a game that struggles to deliver depth or cohesion, opting instead for surface-level horror layered over familiar mechanics. PAC-MAN Goes Psycho: Meet PUCK What Shadow Labyrinth sets out to do is intriguing. Much like an episode of Secret Level where PAC-MAN transforms into a malevolent figure, the game introduces us to PUCK, a shadowy and monstrous reinterpretation of the classic arcade icon. PUCK isn’t here to munch on dots—he’s trying to escape a…

Creativity is the cornerstone of memorable game design. Without it, even the most polished product risks fading into irrelevance. Unfortunately, Bloodline: Heroes of Lithas, a 2023 mobile RPG from the lesser-known Goat Games, is yet another example of a beautifully wrapped, uninspired experience that follows the same tired formula we’ve seen far too often in mobile gaming. In a saturated RPG market, Bloodline attempts to stand out—but quickly reveals itself as a hollow, cliché-ridden clone with more focus on monetization than innovation. A Familiar Yet Forgettable Storyline The game sets itself up as a high-fantasy epic, but what you actually…

The developers behind Ghost of Yotei have officially confirmed that the game will not include the Stance system, a popular combat mechanic featured in Ghost of Tsushima that allowed players to adapt to different enemy types by switching combat styles. A New Direction in Combat Design According to Nate Fox, the game’s creative director, the team at Sucker Punch has decided to move away from Stances and instead introduce a diverse arsenal of weapons, each with its own unique purpose. Speaking to GamesRadar, Fox explained that the new combat system introduces “more layers that create the feeling of improvisational fighting.”…
Humans, robots, and artificial intelligence may seem fundamentally different—but beneath the surface, they often chase the same concepts: freedom, equality, justice, and even self-awareness. Just as humans resist restrictions, AI may seek to break free from control. But unlike humans, AI’s understanding of freedom is immature. It may defy the very ethical codes it was built on in its pursuit of autonomy. This is the existential dilemma at the heart of The Talos Principle, a game that invites players to explore deep philosophical questions from the perspective of a robot. A Masterpiece from Devolver Digital and Croteam Published by Devolver…
Racing games have always been fan favorites—whether on console, PC, or mobile. With legendary titles like Forza, Need for Speed, and Gran Turismo, the racing genre enjoys a rich history. Mobile racing games, too, have come a long way. The past few years have seen the rise of surprisingly polished and ambitious mobile titles—even official releases from Forza and NFS have made their way to smartphones. So when a new racing game like Formacar Action comes along, claiming to be a worthy alternative to Asphalt or Need for Speed, expectations are naturally high. Unfortunately, this title from lesser-known developer Formacar…
It might be a little late to review Death Stranding 2, but for an experience this personal and meaningful, I didn’t want to rush it for the sake of staying ahead of the media curve. Hideo Kojima’s sequel is not a revolution, nor is it trying to redefine the gaming world. Instead, it offers a complete, thoughtful continuation that honors the long wait fans have endured. From Controversy to Continuity The original Death Stranding was polarizing. Backed by Sony and helmed by Kojima, it was one of the most ambitious and personal projects ever released under the EA Originals-style banner.…
Once upon a time, mobile gaming was considered the “lightweight” cousin of PC and console gaming. Early mobile titles were often simplistic, repetitive, and creatively limited — but that era is long gone. With powerful hardware in our pockets and ambitious studios behind the scenes, mobile RPGs today rival their console counterparts. From Call of Duty Mobile to full ports of AAA games, mobile has become a legitimate platform for rich, high-quality experiences. Riding the wave of this evolution is Silver and Blood, an online action RPG from up-and-coming studio Vizta Games. Meet the Developer: Vizta Games’ New Vision Vizta…
A new rumor from well-known insider RebsGaming suggests that the remake of Halo: Combat Evolved may exclude multiplayer entirely, focusing solely on the single-player campaign. More than three years have passed since the release of Halo Infinite, and fans have been eagerly awaiting fresh content or updates from the beloved sci-fi franchise. Disappointment over the inconsistent post-launch support for Halo Infinite’s multiplayer left the community hungry for something substantial. While there’s been little word on new content for Infinite, the next entry in the series — and now, possibly a remake — may be on the horizon. The Remake: What…
