Grapple Dog Review

It's currently on Steam for £11.99. 2D or not 2D If you've followed my previous reviews on Thumb Culture, you'll notice I tend to go for open world 3D games over 2D platformers. The last platformer I played was a fantastic little game called Hoa. Inspired by this, and armed with a new outlook on 2D platformers, join me as I delve into the world of Grapple Dog. Gameplay "Jump, Swing and Zip your way through colourful worlds and exciting challenges in this unique 2D action-platformer! Master the power of the Grapple on your adventure to save the world!"

SNK vs. Capcom: Card Fighters’ Clash Review

When it comes to reviewing ports of old games, it’s important to not fall into the nostalgia trap. Luckily for me, I have none when it comes to SNK vs Capcom: Card Fighters' Clash. I remember seeing screenshots of the game in magazines back in ‘99. I also remember knowing absolutely no one who owned a Neo-Geo Pocket. As such, I merely admired SNK vs. Capcom: Card Fighters Clash from afar. That’s changed! Get Decked! SNK vs. Capcom: Card Fighters' Clash is now out on the Switch and it’s time to see if the last 20+ years have been kind to this combative card game. Has it aged better than Match of The Millenium? Do you have nostalgia for this title? Let us know in the comments! Gameplay To start with - I’ll talk about the port itself. To which I’ll say ‘it’s fine. The emulated Neo Geo Poc...

Rune Factory 4 Special - The Old One's Are The Best When I saw that this absolutely brilliant JRPG was getting a console release and it was adding some new content. I just had to have it.
