Arson & Plunder - Beat Em Up Basics

When I was young my dad owned an Amiga and with it, a good selection of games. One of those titles was Golden Axe and I played that over and over again, finishing it multiple times and beating Death Adder. Have I gone back to that game in many years? No. Why? I have to admit, I am worried that my memories of the game could be ruined on playing it again now and games like this only serve to add on to that train of thought.

Nancy Drew Part One - So Many Adventures, So Little Time

Okay yes, I supposed I should finally tackle the rather large 'Nancy Drew' shaped subject I keep occasionally poking at. I am a fan of the 'Her Interactive' series of Nancy Drew games and as of the time I am writing, I have completed almost every single one of the Nancy Drew adventure titles for PC. This basically means I can whitter on about each one and point out whats good, whats not good and where is best for beginners to... er... well begin?

Castle: Never Judge a Book By Its Cover - Breaking and Entering!

Ive somehow gotten into the habit of playing random games now wherever possible. One of these times was during meeting up with family an hour away and this was on the computer. While the parents chatted, I wound up going through this in speedy fashion and yes, its a hidden object title and yes I spent most my time going 'WHAT?' in utter confusion throughout.

Uninvited - A Ghoulish Classic

A quick trip down the more 'Old' games here with the adventure title 'Uninvited'. I felt like playing something a bit more old-school and, since I can play NES games on my Ouya (Ho-hum), I went for this.

Note: I went for the NES version of this game, its also available for other systems and pc's systems but I will explain why I picked the NES version as we go on.

Oozi: Earth Adventures - Platforming like its 1995!

Next on the finished list is 'Oozi: Earth Adventures'. A rather cartoony platformer that was originally on the Xbox Indie service, since moved onto steam with very little change to it (other than having all four parts put into the same game). Its definitely fun but... Lacking... read on and see what I mean.

Clock Tower 3 - Dumb. Dumber. Dumbest.

Ive been trying to get through this game for a bit on my PS2 and quite frankly its been a tough one. Not because the game is difficult but more because of how effing stupid it is on all counts. Did the creative team get fired for this like the Sonic creative team did after Sonic 2006? They should have. Let me explain.

Ampu-Tea - Easy Mode Done

I shall begin with three simple words. F**k this Game. Thats right, this is a rage game pure and simple with controls and mechanisms ripped right from 'Surgeon Simulator' and the goal is to make tea. The controls suck, the graphics are basic and the game itself is incredibly buggy at the best of times making a frustrating experience all the more frustrating. (Oh look my hand got stuck in the table. Or the mug. Or the water dispenser...)

This is not a game. This is a torture tool and a way for youtubers to earn easily impressed subscribers by screaming at the camera. Just avoid at all costs.
