Okay so the title of the review is a bit antagonistic. At least, it might seem that way to the game’s developer. I might normally be inclined to change it to put the most positive spin on the game, but this is exactly how I felt while playing the game. I want to let you know up front that I only played it for 8 or more hours but didn’t complete it. In B.E.E.P. by Big Fat Alien Games, you play a little robot named B.E.E.P. which stands for Built Exploration Extra-solar Planets. Actually you play a bunch of them as you undoubtedly will die many, many times. The game is essentially a physics-based puzzle-platformer (say that “five-times-fast”). If this is your cup-of-tea then read on.

Wednesday, December 21st, 2011Avatar Dash – Run, Avatar, run!
Tuesday, July 13th, 2010Would you like to play a game?!? You would? On your Xbox 360? Really? What kind of game would you like, I know… a platformer (more or less), where you run and… umm run… and run and run and run and run and run and run and run and run and run and run and run and run… I know, I know, Canabalt – except that’s only for flash. Wouldn’t it be great to play Canabalt on the Xbox? Well now you can… er… sort of… with Avatar Dash – ok ok, I know it’s not the same game… or is it? Check out this refreshing video and tell me what you think.
More after the jump.
Ben Jordan Case 7 – The Cardinal Sins
Friday, December 18th, 2009Okay I have some good news and some bad news about this Ben Jordan game from Grundislav Games. The good news is that this is not the last Ben Jordan game. The bad news is that this game is the last one that has been completed which means we have to wait for the actual last game concerning Ben’s eighth and final case, which will also be bad news for Ben Jordan fans because we love these games so much. So without further ado… “It’s Christmas Eve in Rome. What should be joyful becomes a tragedy as a priest is murdered in cold blood. Ben receives a call from the man accused of the crime, begging him to go to Rome and clear his name. Seeing this as a chance to prove his career choice to his disapproving family, Ben calls up his friends and starts another investigation. Some lives will be lost…”
