Big Biz Tycoon
Sunday, March 24, 2019
It’s not your typical business sim! No, Big Biz Tycoon is a business sim with a heart. Instead of manipulating abstract financials and faceless departments, you’re facing the workforce — hiring each individual, overseeing career paths, and maintaining a pleasant work environment by shifting cosmetic variables. Happy employees plus smart money-management wins the game. Too […]

Grand Slam
Saturday, March 23, 2019
Grand Slam was one of the first baseball games for Windows 95 to support 3D cards in its time, which made it somewhat unique in its own particular way. But despite the game’s forward-thinking technical aspirations, it suffers from a bunch of interface and gameplay issues. For one thing, there are no configurable camera angles. […]

Age of Pirates: Caribbean Tales
Friday, March 22, 2019
Like Sea Dogs, with more role-playing. Pirates are cool. Crafted by Akella, the developer who worked on the sea-faring adventure Sea Dogs, Age of Pirates: Caribbean Tales blends Sid Meier’s classic Pirates! with a heavy dash of realism and depth. Imagine if Bethesda took Oblivion out onto the high seas. Of course, that’s not quite […]

CSI: Miami
Friday, March 22, 2019
Nothing comes closer to actual police work than CSI: Miami, which you’d think would be a good thing. But it’s not; at best, it mimics the pedantic deskwork and meticulous scrutiny loved by “find-the-parser” adventure game fans of times forgotten and, you know, actual police officers. So you like the show, you like forensic criminology, […]

Pool Paradise

Pool Paradise is a pool game that doesn’t take itself seriously. It starts by shunting you to a Tropical island of sand and sun – but not before receiving a 200$ loan from a literal shark to play said games. Playing against thirty different computer-controlled characters, you can earn more cash. With the additional cash […]

Blaze & Blade: Eternal Quest
Tuesday, March 19, 2019
For a poor title, Blaze & Blade does provide a surprising amount of gameplay. You create a party of four characters out of eight available classes. Each time you continue, it’s possible to change your party’s composition. Some classes can access special areas that contain a minor treasure or a shortcut, but there is one […]

Chaos League
Monday, March 18, 2019
Chaos League is an odd mix of strategy and football set in a fantasy universe. The objective is simple – you need to get the ball in your opponent’s endzone. The method, however, will involve using your team members to inflict quite a bit of pain and suffering on the opposition. It’s blood football on […]
