Played the Castlevania Belmont’s Curse demo this morning and… I don’t think it’s going to help game sales. Some demos convince you to buy a game or hype you up about a game you already were excited about, while others make you question whether you’ll buy it at all.

For me, the demo did not hype me up at all. Is the gameplay decent? Yeah, but given the developer that’s expected. It’s not great though. But the story and voice acting? 😫 Cringe at best. For me, the game went from “automatic day one buy” to “wait and see.”

Even if the first Wo Long didn’t hit for you, you should try the demo for Wo Long 2 today before it becomes unavailable on 9/30. I think the second one is significantly more fun.

I started the demo of Wo Long 2, and it makes me want to go back and try the first one again so I can see the differences. So far I’m really liking the demo and I’m wondering why the first one didn’t click with me.

I played the 40th Anniversary edition of the OG Castlevania on iOS this morning. 💚 The good news? It’s free 💩 The bad news? It’s about as effortless and mid a port as you could imagine You can get it yourself for a limited time on the AppStore: apps.apple.com/us/app/castl...

I started Well Dweller yesterday but I didn’t realize that my recording failed to kick off so I started it over again this morning and it’s a lot of fun so far. I didn’t even mind starting over. It’ll be interesting to see how the platforming and overall difficulty evolves.

Been playing Tetris Block Party and it’s pretty fun but in the same way a lot of those “match 3 and build a thing by clearing lines” mobile games are fun. The only improvement I can see is playing with Tetris shapes is more interesting than standard match 3 gameplay.

I was going to dive into Legacy of Kain Ascendance when I got home from vacation but with these scores maybe I’ll pass: PC Gamer: 30/100 Giant Bomb: 2.5/5 Dual Shockers: 5/10 Gamer Social Club: 7/10 GameSpew: 5/10 TechRaptor: 5.5/10 PlayStation Universe: 6/10 Steam: 30% recommend

34 years ago EGM uncovered the greatest hidden cheat of all time. I still haven’t been able to get to Sheng Long to this day, but I try every year. Maybe this will be my year! 🙌

I recently rolled credits on Lunark, and man, it’s a great game. Very much designed in the style of Flashback but I think it’s way more playable. It’s on sale right now and I highly suggest you pick it up.
