Pantheon the Legends (iPhone): Over-Simplification Is Not A Good Thing
Card games. I wonder sometimes how convoluted the gameplay mechanics are for certain card games. Back in the old days it was easy and simpler with games such as Snap, Old Maid or even UNO. Then came Collectible Card Games with the still going strong Magic: The Gathering (MTG) spearheading the then new...

Gunslugs (iOS) Game Review: Crazy, Frantic Action, But in a Good Way
When I first started playing OrangePixels latest iOS game, Gunslugs, I had a difficult time trying to pinpoint its influences. For starters, this 2D platformer seems to be an 8-bit homage to Contra, but then I realize that its DNA also saw contributions from games such as Super Mario Bros and Metal...

Temple Run 2 (iOS): A Leap Over Its Predecessor

Fingstar (iOS) Game Review: Twister And Then Some!
Its pretty strange that it took me 22 years before I finally heard of the party game called Twister. The game, by the Milton Bradley Company, was one that placed a premium on nimbleness and was pretty popular with some of my more urban friends (when compared to them, I was Smallville). In any case,...
