Part of me wanted to explore one of those older Sega Genesis/Mega Drive games that I’d never finished, so my first thought was to go back and try Light Crusader. While looking up detai… Read More

Killa Penguin is devoted to game reviews, from old Super Nintendo games to current-gen, graphic-card-melting powerhouses.

I’ve tried to get into Gunstar Heroes a few times, but it never really seemed to take. I always found that strange since all I’ve ever heard about it is that it’s wonderful… Read More

I don’t really know what to call Grow Home. A platformer? That may technically be true in the sense that you’re trying to get playable character BUD to the game’s many floa… Read More

After playing through three straight sRPGs with 30-40 hours of content in them (and on the 3DS platform, which means each individual screenshot required sitting through the 10-15 second Miiv… Read More

Radiant Dawn, my favorite entry in the Fire Emblem series and quite possibly my favorite game of all time, sells for something like 75 dollars used. The game before it, Path of Radiance (whi… Read More

The header image for this review could be better; I certainly have enough quality screenshots to allow for a clearer, more suitable replacement, and yet I chose to use the one above for what… Read More

Fire Emblem Fates: Conquest was complete and utter garbage, but I still ended up feeling like I could have looked past many of its more questionable changes if the story didn’t out it… Read More

Anyone familiar with either me or this site knows that I’ve long been a huge Fire Emblem fan. I started with fan translations of Fire Emblem 4 and 5, and when the series finally starte… Read More

I have no idea how much can actually be said of Never Alone because of how simple it is; at its core, it’s a simple platformer with clumsy controls that also happens to be an adaptatio… Read More

I’m a big fan of unique stories, especially when they have their own mythology behind them. Jade Cocoon would be a good example of this, with the story being very different from most w… Read More

There are two types of game players: those who are all about the journey, and those who are more focused on how things fit together as a whole. The first are bound to enjoy Firewatch because… Read More

The past couple games I’ve played through have been huge time sinks, so I was on the prowl for something shorter that didn’t require weeks worth of playing to adequately review… Read More

How you’ll view a game like Dragon’s Dogma depends heavily on how you take a statement like, “This game starts to get really good once you put 50 hours into it!” Is s… Read More
2016-02-14 02:35
When I started it, Dragon’s Dogma was easily one of the worst RPGs I’ve ever played. In many ways it still is. After fighting through a dizzying amount of content, though, it act… Read More

There are certain games that are praised so universally that you can’t help but expect the world of them. I happened to buy two of them—Dark Souls and Bloodborne—on a whim… Read More
2016-02-05 03:02
Bloodborne is one of those games it took me awhile to make up my mind about. It starts strong, has a few insufferable sections that have to be fought through (mostly related to platforming)… Read More

I often like to give little games I’ve never heard of a shot. Occasionally I’ll end up stumbling onto an underappreciated gem, while other times I’m made to wade through th… Read More

Rodea is a game that apparently went through a troubled development. Blah blah blah. Every time I’ve seen the game mentioned, that seems to be the first thing people go out of their wa… Read More

Bad games can be forgotten and moved on from, but games on the cusp of greatness that overcome several missteps only to squander all of their potential in their closing seconds are an entire… Read More

My history with the Assassin’s Creed franchise is a rocky one; the first game was one of the first newer games I played when I built my first gaming PC in ~2010 (though it was a few ye… Read More
2016-01-16 04:33
I’ve been a bit slow updating the site lately for various reasons, the most recent of which being a period of 30-something hours where I didn’t get any sleep. I figured it wouldn… Read More
2016-01-08 04:14
Square-Enix was recently experimenting with always-online DRM, so it’s not unfair to say that my opinion of them is at an all-time low. They removed said DRM in a couple cases (though… Read More
2006-06-07 11:16
Lara Croft GO is a Tomb Raider-inspired sequel of sorts to Hitman GO that improves on a lot of the flaws of the first game, adding in animations, a story (communicated almost entirely throug… Read More
2006-06-07 11:16
There’s this topic I’ve been toying around with writing about for the longest time, but haven’t got around to as of yet. It has to do with the differences in a normal game… Read More

Obsidian’s Knights of the Old Republic 2: The Sith Lords, more commonly referred to as simply KOTOR 2, is a game I fell in love with something like a decade ago, and yet it’s als… Read More
2006-06-07 11:16
Before I had this site, KOTOR 1 and 2 were among my favorite games, but I had never bothered to actually play through them properly. In my casual-ness, I found the mechanics confusing and in… Read More

[UPDATE: The always-on DRM in Lightning Returns has been stripped out. There’s apparently still a requirement that cloud saves be on, which is weird, but from what I’ve been able… Read More

Several months ago, I stumbled onto Tales of Illyria while looking for something sRPG-ish on the Android platform. While it’s more of a choose-your-own-adventure/RPG/Oregon Trail hybri… Read More
2006-06-07 11:16
The original Tales of Illyria was one of the biggest surprises I’ve had in quite some time, coming out of nowhere with a detailed, well-written Android game full of choices and consequ… Read More

Game of Thrones is one of my favorite series; I’ve never read the books (sue me), but I find the television show to be wonderfully addictive. The only flaw I could really single out is… Read More

Check out my review of the game here: Game of Thrones (RPG) review Before I tried to play Cyanide’s Game of Thrones RPG, I read a lot of negative reviews that all lamented the fact tha… Read More
