Our next banner drawing entrant is a game called Pikgem by DConcept. Why they call themselves that, I have no idea, but the game is decent. It’s about a guy named Gulpy who is trying to collect gems through various worlds. I would say this game is slightly above average. While it’s fairly standard with collecting things, jumping over, and shooting bad guys, it is fairly solid. If you want to know more check out the video below and read the rest of my review.

Pikgem – A cute little maze / 3d platformer
Sunday, December 20th, 2009(ags) Ben Jordan Case 5: Land of the Rising Dead
Tuesday, August 18th, 2009
Okay so by now you already know the drill. It doesn’t appear that there’s any major changes in the rest of the Ben Jordan games. Obviously it’s going to be a good story. The graphics seem similar to the rest, but I haven’t played it yet. I will get to it in a moment. I will probably like the music. Okay so why am I writing a review when I haven’t actually played it yet. Well I’m late and I’m running out of things to talk about in the first paragraph of these BJ cases. I’m going to be playing it and giving you the review as I play it. How’s them apples.
Here’s the dust cover description (ie the blurb on the Grundislav games website): “After the events in London, Ben Jordan returns home for a much needed rest. One day, he receives a conference call from his friends Simon Booth and Alice Wilkins. Simon has heard of a series of murders in Osaka, Japan, and thinks there is some sort of paranormal activity involved. Ben, Simon, and Alice travel to Japan, but soon find there is much more to the story than they first thought…” Sound interesting? Good, read more next!
Savanna Blocks – The best match-3 game you never played
Thursday, July 23rd, 2009
Okay okay, maybe it’s not the best, and maybe you have actually played it, I don’t know. All I know is that it’s awesome. Awesome sound, awesome graphics, and it even has giraffes! The game Savanna Blocks by ClocKworK MonSteR is an addictive Match-three, or should I call it a Match-2, you should see why below. Okay so I was exaggerating a bit. The sound isn’t awesome, and neither are the graphics, but one thing I didn’t exaggerate about was the giraffes, and umm panthers, and stuff. It has the word Savanna in it after all. I’m sure you’ve heard me say many times before that Match-threes are a dime-a-dozen, and me saying that phrase are a dime-a-dozen too. So where are my dimes? I have no problem reviewing the match-three type games just as long as they are fun to me and this is. I’ve decided not to quote Wikipedia this time because well all I would be quoting is what a savanna is and that really doesn’t have much to do with this game other than the theme. In fact I still don’t know what a savanna is, but I’m thinking some sort of grass lands in Africa. In any case forget the word Savanna, let’s just focus on the word Blocks. Let’s face it, when you see the word blocks you almost know for sure what type of game it is, match-3, Breakout, Tetris or something. So essentially this is a block removal game, and they should have called it “Yet another block removal game but this time with another twist”.
Okay so what I think of the game, it’s addictive. Oh hokey smokes how it’s addictive! You’ll love it, your children will love it, your pets will love it. Even your pets children will love it. Even your children’s grand-children’s pets children’s pet’s will love it. Got it? Good. No the graphics aren’t so great. No the sound isn’t that special. Well the music is a little unique and funny but we’ll get to that in a bit.
