Anirah, Riddle of the Pharaohs by Lost Luggage Studios is supposed to be an Egyptian-themed tile matching game similar to Mahjongg. Okay seriously, there’s no real Egyptian theming to the game. You can select a skin though that is somewhat, but by default, it’s just, well, default. It’s not a match-3 game at all, but it is similar to Mahjongg. Did I like it? About as much as I do Mahjongg. Essentially I like playing Mahjongg but it’s never my first choice. I usually end up getting sucked into multiple games if I start one, and that’s sort of how this game is. Here’s a brief video to show you how to play, and if you’re still confused, I will help clear it up with the rest of the review.

Pikgem – A cute little maze / 3d platformer
December 20th, 2009Our 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.
