A farmer’s beloved cow has been abducted by aliens, and so the farmer arms himself with his trusty plunger, disguises himself as a steer, and gets captured himself to save his livestock from evil Mootants. Space Cows is a twin stick shooter with plenty of bovine humor, milk puns, and fart jokes. It’s available to download on Switch and PC, but reviewed on Switch here.

Hot Wheels: Infinite Loop (Mobile)
Posted on September 11th, 2019 by
Hot Wheels toy cars have delighted kids for many a generation. Heck, even I played with them when I was little. I had a foldable Hot Wheels garage playset that I played with all the time. One of my brothers had a Hot Wheels track that had a volcano that the cars would race up on. We took the loop at the top out so the cars would shoot straight up to the living room ceiling! Heck, even recently I saw Hot Wheels Mario Kart cars and tracks. I was tempted to get them, but I didn’t! But now there is a mobile racing game that captures the imagination of Hot Wheels cars and tracks with Hot Wheels: Infinite Loop. It’s available free to play for most mobile devices, but reviewed on iPad here.
Where the Bees Make Honey (PS4, Switch, Xbox One, PC)
Posted on September 9th, 2019 by
This game is just…weird. One minute you’re in a 3-D first person view looking for office supplies in a maze of cubicles, next you’re a girl in a wintery forest searching for giant bicycle parts, and next you’re a bunny hopping around the wilderness while grocery store sounds play in the background. The changes in play style are so abrupt, it almost feels like a fever dream. And now that I’ve got you curious enough to read the rest of the review, Where the Bees Make Honey is available to download on all current consoles, but reviewed on PS4 here.
Sticky Bodies (iOS, Android)
Posted on September 4th, 2019 by
It’s a horrible name, but Sticky Bodies is a Monty Python-esque animated action game from Q-Games and PixelJunk. A giant hand drops a paper cutout person from the sky, and you must use the touch screen to guide them as they fall. In the air you’ll meet other falling people, and if you guide your character to them, they’ll stick together and form a chain. Try to chain as many people as you can before reaching the ground to get the most points. Sticky Bodies is available free-to-start on mobile devices, but reviewed on iPad here.
Galaga Revenge (iOS, Android)

Video game maker Namco has created some of the most well known arcade games around (and they’re my favorite game company, too). From classics like Pac-Man to more modern hits like Tekken, Namco is one of the greats. Another one of their popular arcade classics is Galaga, and now you can enjoy yet another game in the series with Galaga Revenge. It’s free to play on mobile devices, but reviewed on iPad here.
Tetsumo Party (Switch, PS4, Xbox One, PC)
Posted on August 21st, 2019 by
A few years ago there was a game show that I believe originated in Japan where contestants would try and fit through holes in ever approaching walls. I think it was called “Hole in the Wall” in the US, but on the Internet I remember people calling it “Human Tetris.” Well now you can play a version of that featuring Sumo wrestlers with Tetsumo Party. It’s available to download on most current game consoles and PC, but reviewed on Switch here.
Gabbuchi (PS4, Switch, PC)
Posted on August 19th, 2019 by
Gabbuchi is a 2-D puzzle platformer, and the main character, a box with teeth, reminds me of a cross between Domo and BoxBoy. The game itself kind of reminds me of BoxBoy as well. It utilizes minimalist graphics as you eat as many boxes as you can, but not TOO many as you must still have a path to the goal. So it’s kind of a reverse BoxBoy. Gabbuchi is available to download on PS4, Switch, and PC, but reviewed on PS4 here.

Psyvariar was an arcade 2-D vertically scrolling shooter from around the early 2000’s.
