Squirrel with a Gun – PC Review

I've been in nuttier situations before but this takes everything and the tree knot hole it came from. Squirrel with a Gun is an action-adventure simulation game from Dee Dee Creations. With publishing being handled by Maximum Entertainment. I can't remember when I first saw the trailer for this game, but when I did I immediately knew it was one I had to play. The pure chaos, the squirrely madness people can get themselves into and the guns! OH GOD THE GUNS! Grab your nuts Gameplay Squirrel with a Gun starts us out with our squirrel (I named them John Squicks) finding a golden nut in a lab. I don't how John Squicks got themselves into the lab in the first place, but they got in. After learning how to traverse the lab and getting to the golden nut, government agents burst into the ro...

It’s Only Money (Chapter Three) – PC Review

It's Only Money is a new indie open-world life/sim/action game by Usual Suspects Studios. Brought to us on Steam by Firestoke (Hauntii, Bish Bash Bots), live your best poor life as a citizen of Rockhaven - doing whatever it takes to rise above the mayor. It is exclusively available in early access on Steam for PC. How About a New Playground to be a Menace to Society? I never really thought of games like the Saints Row or Grand Theft Auto series as life simulator games. Now that I'm a decade wiser I suppose I could see how they'd be classed as so. After all, the developers and players of It's Only Money seem to think so. But what about these games strikes you as a simulation of life? Check out my thoughts on how this game lines up with those of its kind in the review below. Gameplay It'...

Just Crow Things – PC Review

What do you call a group of crows? A murder! Which is very apt as this game has murdered my free time. Just Crow Things is an action adventure sandbox game developed by Unbound Creations. The same developers responsible for the wonderful stress relieving game called Rain On Your Parade. Before playing I was already impressed by the fact I would be playing as a tool wielding crow. Although it really helps me sleep at night that crows in real life can't do all that this game character can! This review was written by a living breathing crow named Noir. Gameplay Just Crow Things has you playing as a crow (who I named Tenebrae). Your Crow Grandma has decided you're old enough to venture the world and make our own nest. Before fully pushing us out of the nest Grandma gifts us a family he...

Arcade Paradise VR – PSVR2 Review

It's no surprise that I'm a big fan of Arcade Paradise. I'm going to be up my own coin slot and flex my credentials—back in 2022, I won the Arcade Paradise Woodgal JR competition and even earned the platinum trophy for the game. So, who better to review the VR version of the game than me? (A lot of people, actually.) Do I get paid for this? After the original game's critical acclaim. Arcade Paradise VR launched on Meta Quest systems on April 25th, and later on PC and PSVR2 on August 8th. The game was developed by Nosebleed Interactive and published by Wired Productions. Story On the surface, Arcade Paradise seems like it’s all about the gameplay, and that’s mostly true. But the whole package is wrapped up nicely with a story told through emails and voice messages. It’s a tale of someon...
