Review: Bridge Constructor: The Walking Dead Is an Odd Combo

By Antal Bokor on December 1, 2020 • ( Leave a comment )

The Bridge Constructor series is known for its physics-based bridge building gameplay, but also for its concept mashing. Not merely satisfied with having vehicles travel over roadways, Bridge Constructor took on a […]

Review:Chronos: Before the Ashes Is a Competent Soulslike

By Antal Bokor on November 30, 2020 • ( Leave a comment )

Review: Death Tales Doesn’t Hack It

By Antal Bokor on November 28, 2020 • ( Leave a comment )

If Tim Burton designed a video game, I imagine it would be something like Death Tales. This 2D side-scrolling hack and slash/beat ‘em up game is colorfully grim, and nightmarishly whimsical. You […]

Preview: Roguelite Gunnhildr Is a Norse-Inspired Sci-Fi Shooter

By Antal Bokor on November 28, 2020 • ( Leave a comment )

Roguelikes and rogue-lites seem to dominate my time as a reviewer. It’s to the point where nearly half the games that come to us are Rogue-something in some way or another. You […]

Preview: Among Trees: Chill Nature Vibes To Get Mauled To

By Alex Orona on November 28, 2020 • ( Leave a comment )

I’ve dabbled in the survival genre over the years, but I’m more fascinated with the crafting systems than actually surviving, which promptly leads to my death. Joining the Minecrafts and Don’t Starves […]

As someone who was in elementary school when rock legend Frank Zappa died in 1993, I never had much of an awareness of the musician, a multi-talented composer, songwriter, band leader and […]

Review: Lincoln Is Crying Follows The Long and Storied History of Crime and Corruption in Illinois Politics

By Steve Prokopy on November 27, 2020 • ( Leave a comment )
Lincoln Is Crying

Although lacking in artistry or any groundbreaking facts, the documentary Lincoln Is Crying, from director John Davies and co-director Brian Kallies, does a solid job collecting the various facts and figures (and […]

By Nancy Bishop on November 27, 2020 • ( Leave a comment )

Chicago artist and urbanist Theaster Gates has a new solo exhibit at Gagosian Gallery in New York. The show titled Black Vessel uses materials such as metals, clay and tar to show […]

Review: Video Game Documentary Insert Coin Is a Fun Look at an Interesting Time in the Industry

By Steve Prokopy on November 27, 2020 • ( Leave a comment )
Insert Coin

The era of video games discussed in the new documentary Insert Coin was one I basically missed, but I don’t just watch documentaries about subjects I’m familiar with. In fact, I tend […]

Review: The Human Race Fails to Impress AI, or Audiences, in Superintelligence

By Steve Prokopy on November 27, 2020 • ( Leave a comment )
Superintelligence
