Review : Wheel World : Skidding To The Goal

Fans of indie video games are already well-acquainted with a certain aesthetic. A somewhat cartoony look complementing comical animations to lighten the mood of otherwise heavy subject matters. Quirky sound effects added to the subtitles when expositing the narrative. If gold strikes, a timeless soundtrack by an inspired composer that…

Preview : Bandit Trap : Home Not Alone

Cops and robbers may be common fodder in real life, but it's a concept that’s not usually exploited in videogames. Bandit Trap, from developer PICOMY, is certainly trying to give their spin with a more family friendly take on the concept. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_gUWTHbcIjU For the uninitiated, Bandit Trap is a 3v1…
