Cogs: Clicky-Clicky

So here we have the second review of the games in the third Humble Indie Bundle (see here for the news update about the Humble Bundle). Yesterday Dogbert reviewed “And Yet It Moves”, one of the other games you get when you buy the bundle (see here for the review). Today I will be reviewing Cogs!

And Yet It Moves: A sidescroller with a twist

Before starting this review I feel morally advised to inform you of possible side effects from playing the following game. If you develop symptoms of lack of spacial awareness, mood swings, dizziness, headaches and/or acute mindfuck then stop playing immediately and take a nap to allow your brain to cool off and prevent vegetation. Or […]

Dead Cyborg: Kicking it Old-School

You wake up in a cryotube in a post-apocalyptic world. You are radiation poisoned, extremely weak and you’re only thought is to get the hell out. A one-man Indie game (created by one Endre Barath) Dead Cyborg won’t just be one single game but a series of three episodes each which apparently contain 2 to 3 hours […]

zOMGies 2: My ROFLections (see what I did there…)

With a name out of a 1960s B-Movie and a ridiculous nature to suit, it would be easy to overlook this game as just another in the endless wave of timekillers coming out of Armor Games. And you’d be right, it is yet another timekiller with no real depth to it… but who said that’s […]

Portal 2: Now STOP Thinking with Portals!

Now I realise that this review is coming about three months late. Well you know what, you can just deal with it! Having left days before the release of Portal 2 I wasn’t around to review it when it was released in April this year. Since I got back however I put aside some time […]

Medieval 2: Knights of the Old World

The man is a Captain of the Geonese army and the year is 1242AD. He recently received orders to assemble a large host of men and march on the English held city of Angers. The man’s king recently allied himself with what remained of the French resistance. Together they believe they can hold back the armies of […]

Spiral Knights: We don’t always crash land, but when we do we conquer the world!

Spiral Knights is a top down MMORPG created by Sega where you take on the role of an adventurous Spiral Knight. You and the other Spiral Knights are extraterrestrials (or so I gather) who’s spaceship, the good ship Skylark crashes on a hostile planet called Cradle. Stranded with no means of escape you and the […]

The Lance: A game about a lance…

Well, that’s not entirely accurate. The game is also about a knight, or rather bloodline of knights trying to obtain said lance by defeating the king’s champion in a jousting competition in one of the most overused formats in the flash game world. Again. And again. And again. And that’s about it for Armor Games’ […]

Station 37: All in a day’s work for a fireman

Firemen have an incredibly difficult job where they can potentially face danger and maybe even death every day, and I am filled with nothing but the greatest respect for any who would choose to be one of them. After playing Station 37 though my respect has been increased ten-fold…

Altitude

Steam is currently hosting a free weekend for the game Altitude. It’s an indie arena game where you control a plane and kill other planes. There are varying game modes such as straight up deathmatch, Plane ball and Nuclear launch among others. I had a quick go at it clocking in around an hour. Here […]
