Stardew Valley is proof that staying power is real, even if you don't hold a "live service model" over people's heads, or wage a clandestine PR war against your players. As revealed by creator Eric "ConcernedApe" Barone, the game just ...

Electronic Arts is pulling the plug on its Tetris games for iOS and Android. If you head to the Apple App Store or the Google Play Store, you won't be able to find Tetris Premium or Tetris Blitz, two games that have represented fans' limite...

Take note, developers: If you want me to write about your game on this Very Professional And Serious Gaming Blog™, you need to either make your game very weird, or incorporate dad puns into its title. I wasn't on staff here when Octod...

In today's contest, we're giving away awesome keychains celebrating the Another Eden and Persona 5 Royal crossover event! I know y'all like classic RPGs. Who doesn't? A couple of the bright minds behind genre favorites Chrono Trigger and Xe...

The next digital card game on the block is Legends of Runeterra, a deck-building League of Legends spin-off that'll be cross-platform between PC and mobile. It's the kind of title you might be curious to try but not fully commit to – ...

Dissidia Final Fantasy: Opera Omnia, the latest in the long string of ridiculous Square Enix titles (they're masters of it at this point, as they can even invent new math equations!), has been chugging along on iOS and Android for some time...

Pokémon Go is finally adapting the trade-based evolution mechanic from the mainline series. As of today, you can trade certain established Pokémon like Kadabra, Machoke, Graveler, and Haunter to wipe out the Candy cost needed ...

Another day, another free game. That's how the cookie crumbles and the library grows with Epic's 12 Days of Free Games. Today, it's Hyper Light Drifter, a gorgeous action adventure RPG from 2016. Developer Heart Machine meticulously crafted...

I know it's not the Mega Man X revival we all wanted, but there's still hope for that. While Capcom is still hard at work on their real Mega Man mystery game, Capcom Taiwan is moving forward with Mega Man X DiVE (known as Rockman ...

I can't say I'd recommend subscribing to Apple Arcade for a whole year – not while the iOS, Mac, and Apple TV game service still has to prove its longevity – but the option exists for those who want it. Normally $4.99 per month,...

[Update: Had an issue with the old keys, so I put up new ones. If you got an expired one before, grab a new one! New keys are valid through 12/31.] We've got a giveaway today to celebrate the MapleStory M x RE: Zero crossover event! Time fo...

It's jarring going from Devil May Cry 5 – a great game in its own right, and another hit in a string of successes at Capcom – to this: a mobile Devil May Cry title from Chinese developer YunChang Game. We last touched on Devil ...

It's always great to see Nintendo team up with Mega Man. I mean the (actually) iconic series got its start on the NES, so seeing Mega Man in Smash Bros. warms my heart in a big way. This crossover might not be nearly as impactful,...

We aren't getting any Elder Scrolls on Nintendo Switch this year after all. Bethesda has pushed back its plans to bring The Elder Scrolls: Blades to Switch until "early 2020" as other matters – namely, "the most extensive update" yet ...

How does one go about catching a literal million Pokémon in Pokémon Go? Very patiently. A Japanese player by the name of Kyarorina recently broke the unfathomable one-million-catch mark in Pokémon Go. I'm sitting here i...

Look, I really dig that Nintendo is still doing their thing in the console and handheld space, giving us good old fashioned games that generally have tasteful DLC after the fact. Or complete standalone treasures! But I really can't get down...

Stop me if you've done this before: you're playing your favorite card (or otherwise rank-based game), hit up your standard few matches for rewards, keep your ranking stable, then log off. It's a problem for both the publisher and the player...

Late last night Blizzard kicked off their final main panel of BlizzCon's Friday festivities: Hearthstone. Although new cards and the reasoning behind the new dragon-centric set were the toast of the town, Blizzard also took the time to let ...

The third and final chapter in Hearthstone's Year of the Dragon heats up and breathes fire in just one month. The Hearthstone: Descent of the Dragon expansion takes flight on December 10.  The progenitor of all dragons is the new...

After reading CJ's Early Access review I decided to check out The Elder Scrolls: Blades, but really held off playing it in earnest until the Switch edition debuted alongside of the 1.0 edition of the game. That version, as it turns out...

Manifold Garden is what you'd get if you slipped M.C. Escher's Relativity into an art-to-video-game converter. Shifting gravity to walk up walls, leaping off the edge of the world only to fall from the sky and land right back where you star...

They did it. They got my first real, honest-to-goodness five bucks for Apple Arcade. I was originally thinking I'd only stick around for that initial free trial period, but I ended up keeping my subscription going past the first month &ndas...

It's clear there's more work to be done with trainer battles in Pokémon Go. Even if you're okay with the actual structure PvP takes in the game (I still remember the whiplash I felt early on coming from the mainline series), you prob...

Nearly seven years later, it's time to lose ourselves in the "Escher-esque" world of Manifold Garden. Designer William Chyr is releasing his recursive puzzle-adventure game on the Epic Games Store and Apple Arcade on October 18, 2019. To t...
