Strong Bad’s Cool Game For Attractive People - Episode 2: Strong Badia The Free
Posted by Poh Tun Kai on October 24th, 2008 in Reviews

From web pages of the cartoon site homestarrunner.com comes the egotistical little guy in the wrestling mask and boxing gloves, Strong Bad. The second episode of his self-aware, self-promoting, and hilariously funny adventure game is titled Strong Badia The Free, and it’s really an excuse to link together a whole bunch of gags and puzzles themed around countries [...]

Indie Monday: Toribash
Posted by Poh Tun Kai on August 25th, 2008 in Reviews

We take a step away from casual games and into the indie realm with Toribash, a violent 3D fighting multiplayer game with some very involved controls. It’s a game that takes a lot of effort to master, but is also extremely rewarding once you get the hang of it.
Toribash is the creation of Singapore-based Nabi [...]

Farmer Jane
Posted by Jianyang Tan on July 16th, 2008 in Reviews

Farmer Jane may be another time-management game with the farming theme, but it does a sweet take on the graphics department. You’ll be treated to some simple, lovely 3D graphics that fit nicely into the game. It’s well-integrated and taken advantage of, sporting camera panning in level introductions, and a selection of customizable clothes (in [...]

Puzzle Hero
Posted by Guest Writer on June 28th, 2008 in Reviews

There are some casual game types where you get a new lookalike product almost every day, until it becomes hard to distinguish between them. Not so with Puzzle Hero, one of a rather small category of hybrid puzzle-RPGs (role-playing games), in the tradition of Puzzle Quest. This sword-and-sorcery fairytale adventure adds 3D animated characters to [...]

Tower Bloxx Deluxe
Posted by Luna Cruz on June 19th, 2008 in Reviews

The name Tower Bloxx Deluxe gives no clue as to how cute, simple, and strangely wonderful this 3D puzzle game is. You live in a city of Tower Toons, cartoon people who love tall apartments and skyscrapers. The problem is, most buildings in the city are old and falling apart, and Toons are leaving fast. [...]

Flower Shop: Big City Break
Posted by Nick Kojima on November 24th, 2007 in Reviews

We really like this game. We want to get that right out in the open at the very beginning of the review, because this review is full of criticisms, and may fool you into thinking we don’t. That’s just because the overwhelming feeling we took away from the game is that with just a few [...]

Dracula Twins
Posted by Cameron Sorden on November 3rd, 2007 in Reviews

Vampires always get such a bad rap. They’re just going about their lives, trying to suck a little blood here and there, and crazy stake-toting vampire slayers are always kicking down their front door. Someone needs to think of the vampire children whose lives are being ruined! Well, Legendo entertainment invites you to do just [...]

Bugatron Worlds

An army of insect overlords is descending from outer space! All that stands between earth and a horde of creepy-crawly monstrosities is a little white ship piloted by none other than you, space fighter extraordinaire! Have you got the moxie to rock the bugs?

Chameleon Gems
Posted by Nick Kojima on October 29th, 2007 in Reviews

OK, there are a lot of games out there whre you spit things at encroaching waves or chains of things. That’s leading a lot of people to decry casual games as a bunch of clones, and to some degree there is truth to that. But actually, some of these “clones” are better than others, and [...]

Devastation Zone Troopers
Posted by Nick Kojima on October 10th, 2007 in Reviews

Well, goodness. This is certainly different. It’s like Halo and Alien Shooter have gone and made a sci-fi lovechild. In fact, this game is so different from what people might consider a casual game that we seriously questioned even reviewing it on our site. Where are the jewels? Where are the cakes? Where are the [...]
