Classic console and computer game reviews
Reading Time: 5 minutesUncle Dave takes control of the stereotypical “white girl in a horror movie” in a strange survival horror/point-and-click hybrid, just in time for Halloween. Oh, and you die.
Reading Time: 10 minutesBullfrog’s original tycoon game shows why making kids happy is harder than you’d think. Ungrateful little bastards.
Reading Time: 7 minutesThe classic point and click adventure gets a modern (for 1996) overhaul. Run, hide, and try to outsmart the immortal Scissorman.
Reading Time: 6 minutesWilliam Gibson-inspired cyberpunk roleplaying from the comfort of your own console. Play as Jake Armitage is a loose recreation of Shadowrun novel “Never Deal with a Dragon.”
Reading Time: 7 minutesNot a connected sequel to the original Phantasmagoria, but still a chilling tale in its own right. Follow the recently de-institutionalized Craig Curtis as he explores his lingering personal demons in a solid interactive take on psychological horror.
Reading Time: 9 minutesSome attractive CG graphics are wasted on a buggy, pointless follow-up to Dark Horse’s comic Aliens: Labyrinth.
