Rage 2

Rage 2
9/10
Believe it or not, I have been angry before… I might be feeling something now…rawr?
I might not be the most furious writer at ackk, but just give the main character a couple of people to punch, and before you know it, he is glowing yellow and exploding. Needless to say, that makes for [...]

Doctor Zed

Doctor Zed
7/10
So as the story goes, apparently you left a virus under a volatile substance and this substance turns your little virus into a nasty bug that goes and infects a bunch of levels. The game starts out pretty easy, but later levels get pretty tedious. The basic premise is to run around [...]

Bowja the Ninja 2

Bowja the Ninja 2
6/10
Okay, so we have a point and click. Seems kinda promising. You’re a ninja that makes strange squeaky sounds that remind you of a baby pig squealing, using your bow to shoot rubber arrows at people. This game is child friendly; nobody dies!
Anyway, your goal is to…well, it doesn’t tell you. But [...]

The Key Master

The Key Master
7/10
I know what you’re thinking, didn’t we just review one of these? Yep, we most certainly did. No worries, this one is considerably more challenging than the last typing game we reviewed. For starters, you can have multiple enemies on the screen at once. You also have potions and [...]

Bullets

Bullets
8/10
Asteroids+Firing your own obstacles+dodging=fun? You might say.
Here we have Bullets, a asteroid type game that has a few interesting ideas, first and foremost is the fact that you have to shoot out what you are to avoid. Think of “What goes around, comes around” as the motto for this game. THere are no asteroids or [...]

Earth Defense

The moon…bringer of tides, illuminator of nights, favorite action of college pranksters. And now it defends Earth as well. Take to the skies to prevent asteroids and satellites from slamming into Earth by slamming the moon into them first. Upgrade the speed and size of your moon, recover health for the planet, [...]

R.O.B.O.T. Relatively Obedient Being of Thought

R.O.B.O.T. Relatively Obedient Being of Thought
8/10
R.O.B.O.T. is another game from the JIG Games Design Competition 5. As mentioned before, the theme of this competition was “Upgrade” and there’s definitely plenty of that in R.O.B.O.T. Destroy enemies, earn cores, then use the cores to upgrade various things like your speed, energy, weapon, shields, and [...]

Zwingo

Zwingo
8/10
How would you like to smack some balls around? No? Oh well, this game probably isn’t for you, then. You have a ball…that’s attached to another ball…and you’re protecting a ball from other balls. Confused? Cool. This is an interesting defense-style game that has you defending a ball in [...]

Cursor Attack 3

Cursor Attack 3
9/10
We’ve all played mouse avoider games, haven’t we? Well, this game puts a twist on that. You have to avoid obstacles, like in any mouse avoider game, but you have to shoot targets, like in an action game. As I played on, the difficulty increased and I had to face harder challenges. It’s [...]

Sumo Slam

Sumo Slam
8/10
Here we have Sumo slam, a game that tasks you with throwing your enemy sumo wrestlers off a cliff.
The game is very physics based, so expect lots of bouncing around. The enemy sumo wrestlers have a lot of fury. As the game progresses, they become more aggressive. They throw themselves at you with [...]
