When Ski Lifts Go Wrong Review
Played on Windows.
Also Available on macOS and Switch.
It’s time to return to the indie roots. I found When Ski Lifts Go Wrong based on some gifs the creator had posted on Reddit. It had a compelling development story about a guy, his brother, and his friend making the game. I’m not one to consider team sizes. What did impress was the look and gameplay he was showing off was impressive, and I wanted to see if it lived up to the gifs.

Q.U.B.E. 2 Review
Played on Windows
Also Available on Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and Nintendo Switch
In 2011, Q.U.B.E. first came out. It was a unique physics-based puzzler. While it had a similar aesthetic to Portal, it offered a unique and interesting puzzle game, with a focus on manipulating parts of the wall and was a solid puzzle with a great design. Toxic Games has returned with a sequel, Q.U.B.E. 2. Will it also shine?

Two Point Hospital Review
Played on Windows
Also Available on Linux and macOS
In 1997, Bullfrog Studios develop something special. It was a follow-up to their very popular Theme Park game, but this time they tackled a new topic: hospitals. The game’s name was Theme hospital, and it developed a cult following. We fast forward a little over twenty years and we now have a spiritual successor to the original game, including some of the same people at the helm. This time it’s called Two Point Hospital, is it as good as the original?

Crash Bandicoot N-Sane Trilogy Review
Played on Windows
Also Available on Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and Nintendo Switch
The 90s are making a comeback, from remakes of almost every popular movie we enjoyed as kids, to musicals being made out of our movies, like A Bronx Tale. So even gaming is getting into remakes, and for that, we have our star today. The Crash Bandicoot: N-Sane Trilogy. Can a 90s game still hang with modern games, or will it be a bit too archaic to enjoy?

Rapture Rejects Review
Played on Windows
I thought we would have an easy Humble Monthly Bundle for February 2019. I already reviewed Yakuza 0 and only have to play Division, but to switch things up, Humble Bundle has released another game, Rapture Rejects. Well, this is the game that got a release two months ago, and now is in a Humble Monthly Bundle, that’s a bit of a red flag. Let’s take a look and find out exactly what it’s about.
