Cradle of Persia

I enjoyed Cradle of Rome, the predecessor to Cradle of Persia, so I was excited when I heard this one was coming. It took longer to get into Cradle of Persia. Eventually, it hooked me, but not as much as its ancestor hooked me.
The major difference between the two comes in how you make the [...]

Diner Dash: Hometown Hero

Yeah, yeah… this game has been out for a while. Having played the preview, I didn’t play it again since I moved on to other games that needed reviews. Flo is so popular that she hardly needs reviews for attention, but when I play something — I review it. Flo doesn’t disappoint as Diner Dash: [...]

Peggle

Well, I had my 10 best casual PC games of 2007 all ready to go… then Ken Edwards from Blogcritics.org’s gaming section asks me if Peggle Deluxe is on the list. When I told him I hadn’t played it (I’d never get work done if I play and review every released game), he told me [...]

Mahjongg Artifacts, Chapter 2 Review

Solitaire mahjongg today looks nothing like its older counterpart from 10 years ago. Back then, the biggest features were the variety of themed tile sets and the graphics. Now they come with stories, different modes of play, power ups, and other twists. Mahjongg Artifacts, Chapter 2 follows Mahjongg Artifacts’ footsteps in providing a quest mode [...]

I had no basis for comparison, so little did I know I reviewed one of the best games of its genre. Since then, I’ve also checked out Mystery Case Files: Madame Fate surpasses its four predecessors and the Mystery [...]

Heroes of Hellas PC Game Review

The fascinating Greek myths often become the subject of games, videos, and movies. The unique characters and their adventures contribute a powerful ingredient for entertainment. Heroes of Hellas effortlessly blends match three (keep reading — it’s not just another one) with the myths into a fine storyline beginning with someone stealing the scepter of [...]

Puzzle City

Most people won’t spend their free time wondering what Tetris would be like if it went sideways and had to fit into a set board. The answer is that it looks like Puzzle City with a little Sim City thrown in. The result? A fun twist and change of pace for Tetris fans without Sim [...]

Build-a-Lot Review

I’m already ready for more and hope that Hipsoft, the company behind this brilliant addition to the tycoon genre, works on a sequel (could be same topic or something different with a similar concept). No one thing makes Build-a-Lot special — it just has the right amount of challenge, an easy to figure out interface, [...]
