A Forgetful Loop
Time loops and puzzles abound as I check a look at a super sweet indie game I got in the itch.io Palestine charity bundle!
The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening
In an effort to get better at Japanese I played through The Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening on the Game Boy, and the remake on the Switch, in Japanese. I had a jolly good time with both versions!
Tomb Raider III: Adventures of Lara Croft (1998)
I’ve just finished playing Tomb Raider III, as I’m playing through all of the Tomb Raider games as part of the veizy.com Tomb Raider 20 Years of Fun Times Retrospective. Tomb Raider 3 was released in November 1998, developed by Core Design, and published by Eidos. Tomb Raider!
AM2R – Another Metroid 2 Remake
A few weeks ago, a free fan remake of Metroid II was released. AM2R, standing for Another Metroid 2 Remake, was in development for 9 years before being released on the 30th anniversary of the original Metroid game. Nintendo were not happy that a bunch of fans were celebrating the Metroid franchise that they’ve worked so hard to ruin, so issued a bunch of DMCA takedown notices towards everywhere hosting the game. Of course, getting a copy of the game is still incredibly easy, so I did, and I have played it! It’s great!
Tomb Raider II (1997)
I’m playing through all of the Tomb Raider games thanks to the veizy.com Tomb Raider 20 Years of Fun Times Retrospective. This here is Tomb Raider II, and it’s jolly good. It was developed by Core Design, published by Eidos, and originally released in October 1997.
Tomb Raider (1996)
Hey, here’s a review of the first Tomb Raider game. I’m playing through all of the Tomb Raider games as part of the veizy.com Tomb Raider 20 Years of Fun Times Retrospective. Originally released on October 25th 1996 on the Saturn, then released a few weeks later on some proper systems, Tomb Raider was developed by Core Design and published by Eidos. It’s the very first Tomb Raider game, and it holds up pretty good!
The Room Mini Review
Here is a game that I got in the Steam Summer Sale as part of the veizy.com Steam Summer Sale Playtime 2016. It is called The Room, and it’s made by the lovely people at Fireproof Games.

Here is yet another game I’ve played as part of the veizy.com Steam Summer Sale Playtime 2016, it’s Always Sometimes Monsters, a cool RPG by Vagabond Dog.
Momodora: Reverie Under the Moonlight Mini Review
I am doing a very fine job of thematically linking the game’s I choose to play in the veizy.com Steam Summer Sale Playtime 2016. Here’s another game with a colon in the title, it’s Momodora: Reverie Under the Moonlight! And it’s fun!

Soma
Hello veizy.com exciting website. It has been ages since I wrote anything because for the past couple of months all I’ve played is Rare Replay, which is super awesome and highly recommended but not that interesting to write about. I have now just played Soma, the new game from Frictional Games, and that IS something interesting to write about. So I’m going to write about it now. Now. NOW!
Short Peace – Ranko Tsukigime’s Longest Day
Short Peace – Ranko Tsukigime’s Longest Day is a succinct and easy-to-remember title for a game. It only came out a year ago, totally within the time limit for an exciting review. Also, it’s a PS3 exclusive. Long live the old generation!
Risk of Rain Mini Review
I got Risk of Rain in a Humble Bundle I think, and it’s pretty rad. How rad? You’ll find out right after this gigantic image!
Legend of Grimrock Mini Review
The first game I bought in the Steam Summer Sale 2015, it’s Legend of Grimrock!
DeadCore Mini Review
What I love about the Steam Summer Sale is that so many games go on sale for such a cheap price, it’s almost impossible to not look at what the games are. When a game I’ve never heard of is available for £2 it would be insanity not to see what it’s about. And with DeadCore I am so glad I did.
Jazzpunk Mini Review
Jazzpunk! It fell into my Steam Library via a Humble Bundle, it’s the third game in the veizy.com Steam Summer Sale Playtime, but it’s the first where I’ve broken one of the rules. Instead of playing the game for an hour, I instead played it until completion which took about two and a half hours. A short game for sure, but an excellent one!
Gone Home
I started writing up a big long piece about a thing but it was taking forever. Then I played Gone Home which turned out to be pretty great and also much easier to write about. So I’m going to do that. Right now!
Remember Me
I played Remember Me. I’m going to blog about it. Because that’s what I do!
Jet Set Radio HD
Over the past week I’ve been playing Jet Set Radio HD and I thought that’s as good a thing as any to blog about, so let’s shake it!
