ARMS Review

As a company, Nintendo has a history of innovation – both good and bad. Their consoles have been trying new things since long before it was ever popular to be the odd one out (VirtualBoy), and they’re still doing it right up to this very moment. One of their latest innovations is ARMS; a fighting game where your arms are basically springy noodles and you’ve got to reach for your opponent. That sounds like a crazy, gimmicky mess – right? Well the joke’s on you, ’cause this “crazy, gimmicky mess” is more fun than a whole bin of fireworks.

World of Goo Review

Physics games are a dime a dozen these days, but rarely does a physics game have a hook that catches you for more than five minutes. World of Goo is that rare occasion, and over its handful of chapters and plethora of differently styled levels therein I had a lot of fun… when it worked as intended. It’s one of those games you really want to like, but can very easily be frustrated by.

Puyo Puyo Tetris Review

As someone who has been playing Tetris in one form or another for pretty much all of his life, I was excited to hear that Puyo Puyo Tetris was headed to Switch – and that excitement turned into delight when I learned that it was receiving a Western release. I was more interested in the Tetris aspect for sure, but there was something alluring about the Puyo Puyo aspect as well. If someone thought these similarly styled series were a good idea to mix, who was I to disagree?
