Fresh review in! Revita is a new competitor in the packed roguelike arena. Released in Early Access last year, it has received good praise. Now ready, it launches in complete form on #Switch and Steam on April 21. Does it have what it takes? @BenstarDEV

Retrocade Review: The game’s brilliance lies in its simplicity and intuitiveness. I expected it to be riddled with flaws as most first attempts are. It controls extremely tightly and looks marvelous for the time not only the graphics its animations too.

Tristan Jurkovich played @SquareEnix, Artdink & Nintendo’s ‘Triangle Strategy’ for a month to provide you with an honest, fair, and meaningful review. You should go ahead and check it out, if only for the gorgeous HD-2D art (that Square has trademarked.)

Another ICYMI; ‘Dawn of the Monsters’ seems a bit inspired by the old classic arcade game Rampage — it is well worth the read and the review has some amazing screenshots. @WayForward & @13amgames

The visuals of ‘Red Wings: American Aces’ are unique and slick, employing an edgy cel-shaded look — a style not often seen in air-combat games, and one that gives the game a light-hearted, Nintendo-ish vibe. Nice screens included. #WW1 @AllinGamesPub
