I had a revelation the other day that if the current me went back in time and showed the eight-year old me an iPad, it would blow my mind. Unless my current self was showing my past self Game of Watchcraft: Spawn of Squishy, that is, in which case I'd probably just wonder how Clicker managed to get an LCD game so flat. In the present, it's a game that ends up both living and dying by its remarkable devotion to handheld game technology that ruled the 1980s. |
If I had telekinesis when I was Kyle's age, I think it sure would have made getting through middle school a whole heck of a lot easier! In Telekinesis Kyle, players take control of a young boy named Kyle, who gets dropped off at a secret research facility to learn how to fine-tune his telekinetic powers. However, things are not all how they seem, and soon after Kyle arrives, his new mentor Dr. Professor begins to show some questionable ulterior motives. But even with the whimsical and character-driven humor of games like on its side, there's too much about this puzzle-platform adventure that clatters to the floor like a loud metal crate with no kinetic energy to keep it in motion. |
It's true that in recent years the mobile games industry has quickly become an oversaturated market. For as many games as we cover here on Gamezebo on a daily basis, there are literally hundreds of other games popping up on the App Store that we have to sift through each and every day just to find the hidden gems that get buried within. So if there are so many people these days with the knowledge of mobile app development, why should some keep working on the same mobile games that are only going to get lost in the sea of other App Store releases, when they could instead be using their talents, knowledge, and skills for other, brighter ventures? |
There are very few games out there of any genre or audience that have achieved such a worldwide adoration as PopCap's empire. Sometimes it's hard to know what you should expect from a sequel to a game that holds such a massive cult following among gamers old and young alike. There have already been some pretty high expectations surrounding PvZ 2, and to be honest, it's even a bit intimidating to be the one who gets to write this review. Because as I realized as soon as I started playing the game, how can I possibly put into words how amazing Plants vs. Zombies 2: It's About Time truly is? Well after years of waiting, I'm happy to say that it is finally time to get those plant packets out and start protecting your time-traveling brainz once again. |
When I was in the fifth grade, I somehow got the idea in my head that I wanted to join the basketball team at school. So I signed up for a weeklong basketball camp over the summer, just to sharpen up my skills, and maybe score a dunk or two for the ladies. But then a funny thing happened: I realized I couldn't quite get the ball to go into the basket, like ever, and lost every training drill for my team singlehandedly. Luckily, the new basketball RPG Dunk Dreams from Brothersport Games offers the entirely opposite experience, and can make anyone the king of the courts in a manner of minutes through deep role-playing gameplay, and even deeper systems of player customization. |
We cover plenty of new games here at Gamezebo every week, but the number of games we've already covered that show up on new platforms? It's staggering. This Wednesday and every Wednesday, Gamezebo is rounding up the games that aren't quite new, but might be new to you depending on your platform of choice. And who doesn't love new(ish) games? |
Ah, the life of a surgeon: having people's lives in the palm of your hand, wearing that prestigious white doctor's coat, and raking in those big paychecks so you could buy yourself a diamond-encrusted surgical blade if you really wanted to. It's such a shame, then, that society makes us have to jump through hoops and finish years of med school just to have the chance at the dream. Sure, I get they want us to, you know, practice operating on people, and to know what we're doing and all, but what about the rest of us who just want to perform some surgery now? Well that's where Amateur Surgeon 3 from Adult Swim Games comes in, where the only things you'll need to become a world-famous surgeon are a mobile device and a bloody pizza cutter. |
