REVIEW: Glyph
Last summer, while I was still in quarantine, I found myself engrossed in Netflix's Floor is Lava. It challenged its viewers to recreate a childhood ritual that is so common it appears to have been ingrained into their DNA. The sets were created to portray the title game in child's mind. Sofas and ottomans floated on a lake of red liquid, while contestants moved from vine-like drapes to safety.

If gamers are looking for something different than the latest blockbuster, then Indie Games are the best place to go if you are looking for something more creative and experimental. This means that these games have some of the best developers and most talented people in the industry. Neil Jones is no exception. He is the sole creator and developer of Never yield,a side-scrolling self-running auto-runner. It emphasizes fast decision-making and replaying levels in the fastest time possible. You'll have a great time playing this game, regardless of how long you play it for.

Over the last few years, VR has made great strides in allowing us to travel into worlds we could never experience in real life. VR has taken us all over the globe, whether it's the Half-Life Alyx world, Superhot's matrix-inspired action adventure, or the techno rage of Beat Saber. It is sometimes the VR games that offer a smaller space that you can experience that truly impress you. This is why Demeo's setting of a Dungeons and Dragons boardgame in a basement is truly an exceptional and refreshing VR experience.

Many of us have not played since the last time we did. Crash Bandicoot Was used as an Easter egg at the start of Uncharted 4 - A Thief's End. Nate and Elena, ever-competitive, fire up an old PlayStation to compete for victory in the original game. Nate screams "I bet you can beat your high score in your TV game thing", but Elena isn’t impressed. "On my Television game What is it called? It's not even known!" He has no chance.
Benito RamirezPublished 3 years ago in GamersREVIEW: The Climb 2 (Oculus Quest)
The Climb was released in 2016 by technological wizards Crytek. It offered a way for users to experience something that most of us will never get to, and it focused on the thrills associated with Free-Soloing (rock climbing without safety precautions). The original game, which was available on the PC before it made its way to Oculus Quest, was a spectacular graphical display of VR's potential. However, bringing it to Quest gave the headset unparalleled freedom, although some graphics fidelity was lost. The Climb 2 has been released exclusively on Oculus Quest headsets five years later, thanks to the backing of Facebook. The Climb2 aims to push Oculus Quest to the limits. However, that doesn't make it a bad game.
Benito RamirezPublished 3 years ago in GamersREVIEW: Pacer
It's been quite a year, hasn't? That might explain why Pacer is exactly what I have been looking for recently. It's exactly what it seems at first glance: a zero gravity combat racer who either wants to date Wipeout or lock it in its basement. I'm here because those games were awesome and sometimes it's just fun driving really fast and blowing sh*t up. Pacer is basically offering this.
Benito RamirezPublished 3 years ago in GamersREVIEW: The King of Fighters 2002 Unlimited Match
The King of Fighters 2002 Unlimited match is an impressive title. It was a familiar experience, but it also gave me some curiosity. It plays just like other fighting games. The control scheme is almost the same as an arcade machine, with only A and B. There are two types of punches: a heavy and light one, and a heavy kick. This title will be easy to understand if you're a big fan of fighting. If you're new to fighting games, it can be overwhelming.

Benito RamirezPublished 3 years ago in GamersREVIEW: Pumpkin Jack
Developers create new IPs that are inspired by classic games I love. It all felt instantly familiar from the moment I took control of our gourd-headed antihero in Pumpkin Jack. It was like trying a new version of your favorite comfort food. Everything you loved about the original recipe was preserved, but with a different flavor combination. Pumpkin Jack is everything I loved about the PS2-era 3D platformers I poured hours into as a child, there's just a lot less of it.
Benito RamirezPublished 3 years ago in GamersREVIEW: Resident Evil Village
I was not thrilled when it was revealed that Resident Evil Village would be a continuation to Ethan's story of Resident Evil 7. Resident Evil7 was a good title, but Ethan's story and character were not as compelling as previous titles. Resident Evil Village rectifies all of that with a better core mystery and more character-driven lore. It also has more fun gameplay.
Benito RamirezPublished 3 years ago in GamersREVIEW: Unrailed!
The railway's navigators, the Navvys, worked tirelessly in both the UK and the US to build the extensive rail networks that helped to create the US. They also supplied western territories with railroads, which allowed the UK to experience its industrial revolution. These Navvys were dangerous and backbreaking workers. They also received very little pay.
Benito RamirezPublished 3 years ago in GamersREVIEW: New Pokémon Snap
The Pokemon Snap was first released in Japan in 1999. It is a delightful throwback to simpler times in the history of this now-legendary franchise. The concept of the N64 title was simple: take photos of Pokemon on a rail-shooter type track and get graded on your snaps. New Pokémon Snap remains the core of the game, regardless of all the bells and whistles.
