Little Nightmares 3 is the latest installment in the fan-favorite Little Nightmares franchise. As someone who’s played every game in the series and is quite fond of them, I had a lot of expectations going into it. While the game retains many of the elements that make the series so great, it also loses much of its flair and novelty, and one could wonder whether the developer shift from Tarsier Studios to Supermassive Games is to blame. An Familiar But Underwhelming Narrative Little Nightmares 3 follows two friends and new characters to the series, Low and Alone, in a mysterious,…

When it came to the first two Monster Hunter Stories games, I always felt like they seemed like the sorts of stories you’d see in shonen manga or anime with something of a Pokemon collectible creature element. Yes, characters stayed viable for longer. But it always seemed to be about a beginner journeying, finding new Monstie friends, and ending up the very best. With Monster Hunter Stories 3: Twisted Reflection the tone is far different and the execution makes early-game creatures feel even more viable, resulting in a spin-off that feels much more like a traditional JRPG. Especially since the…

Fixer Undercover is a terrific escape room adventure limited only by your tolerance for jank.Are you a fan of the I Expect You To Die trilogy, but always wish you could get up and walk around the room to figure out what to do? That’s Fixer Undercover in a nutshell, an escape room spy thriller using handyman tools (a wrench, hammer, pliers, electric drill, and grinder) along with whatever happens to be in the room to get to the next room. Fixer Undercover adds full artificial locomotion to IEYTD’s established formula and the ability to move around and get more…

Planet of Lana 2 reviewDespite a few underdeveloped ideas, Planet of Lana 2 is a bigger, smarter, and even better-looking puzzle-platformer than the charming original. Developer: Wishfully Publisher: Thunderful Publishing Release: March 5th 2026 On: Windows From: Steam, PC Game Pass Price: TBC Reviewed on: Intel Core i9-10900K, 32GB RAM, Nvidia RTX 3090, Windows 10; Steam Deck OLED The original Planet of Lana proposed a science fiction fantasy that appealed on two levels: one, being able to adventure through a wondrously lush exoworld, and two, having a cat who actually listens to you. Planet of Lana 2 is more of…

Scott Pilgrim EX represents a reunion of sorts for developer Tribute Games. Members of the team worked on 2010’s Scott Pilgrim vs. the World: The Game at Ubisoft and later formed the current studio that developed the well-regarded Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder’s Revenge and Marvel Cosmic Invasion. Tribute has become skilled at creating visually nostalgic beat ‘em ups, and its return to the Scott Pilgrim franchise is no exception. It is, however, light on surprises or mechanical innovation.Watch Our Scott Pilgrim EX Review:  This entry in the Scott Pilgrim canon takes place at some amorphous time that may or may…

Enshrouded is an open-world, voxel-based survival game developed by Keen Games. The game is set in the post-apocalyptic medieval world of Embervale, but is it good? How is it different from other survival games? Haven’t I Seen This Before? Image: Attack of the Fanboy The world has been consumed and corrupted by a mystic, deadly fog called the Shroud. You’re a Flameborn, a hero neither dead nor alive who’s the world’s last hope. Does it sound like Dark Souls? Well, I can’t help but compare. Truth be told, there aren’t many apocalyptic games out there in which you play as an…

I played the hell out of Omega Force’s Dragon Quest Builders 2. As in, I made additional towns on my private island and set up an underground subway system to connect different spaces. Loved the game. While a totally new thing in many ways, I can tell Omega Force’s Pokemon Pokopia will trigger the same kind of response and expect it to consume hundreds of hours of my life. There’s so much to this game, to the point that I don’t think Nintendo’s trailers and Treehouse: Live did it justice. Referring to Pokemon Pokopia as “Pokemon Minecraft” would do it…

Scott Pilgrim vs The World: The Game was a very River City Ransom-coded game that also felt strongly inspired by arcade beat’em ups like Streets of Rage. Pick a character. Fight through side-scrolling stages alone or with up to three friends. Scott Pilgrim EX ended up a similar sort of experience, only now the structure feels even more like Kunio and Riki could pop up at any minute.  This sort of similarity comes up immediately as Scott Pilgrim EX begins. Like many entries in the Kunio-kun line, it begins with members of Sex Bob-omb and friends of Scott and Ramona…

A new year tends to reset habits, and gaming is no different. When the big launch windows pass and limited-time events fade out, players start trimming things back. What do I actually enjoy opening? What fits into a normal evening without feeling like a commitment? Heading into 2026, that question matters more than ever. Gaming now sits across consoles, PCs, phones, and online platforms, and the lines between them are blurrier than they used to be. A console epic, a mobile game, and an online casino session can all fill the same role depending on mood and time. Grant Theft…
