It seems like lately I’ve been dying for the chance to throw my recent gaming history out of a window and scream “Oh screw this, I’ll just talk about an older game I love!” And while one day I will eventually have an hour on Sphinx and the Cursed Mummy, and I also have a … Continue reading Dopefish Reviews Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time

For full effect, please start playing this video of merry-go-round music to accompany your reading experience. Apparently you call them 'carousels' in the United States. You guys are crazy. https://youtu.be/-tpLgBprqLI Speaking as someone who centuries ago, used to be a child, I can safely say that amongst the things that children love are; sweets, funfairs, … Continue reading RollerCoaster Tycoon VS Theme Park World

When I post a link to this on Twitter, I’ll probably use the tagline ‘Danganronpa; possibly the greatest game I’ve ever not enjoyed’ and that about sums it up really. And this will be the text that gets previewed in that very same post on Twitter, and the few people interested enough in the Danganronpa … Continue reading Dopefish Reviews Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc

Spec Ops: The Line is, from an artistic point of view, one of the most important games released in the last decade.

A hush falls over the crowd as the chatter stops and the host walks on stage. Game developers from around the world sit anxiously in their seats, waiting to hear the next category of award.

I’ve recently (well, not really, this is one of my old blogs that I wrote five years ago. It might still be good though, so, you know. Give it a shot!) passed a milestone in gaming – a small and insignificant milestone that most of you have probably passed already. After playing games almost exclusively … Continue reading Dopefish Reviews The Cat Lady

One game that I think most people have played at some point is the original Super Mario Bros. Some of us had fun. Some of us did not. Some of us played it all the way to the end. For some of us, it was the beginning of a journey into the world of video … Continue reading Battletoads VS Battle Kid

Imagine knowing someone who has a reputation for being really, really good at one specific thing. Juggling. Limericks. Kayaking. Anything at all, but whatever it is, and whatever their faults in other fields, this is the one thing that they are an absolute master of. Someone who may not be especially talented – or even … Continue reading Telltale-Roading

I know I do this every time I start a review, but let me explain why this game is a completely unique little snowflake I chose to discuss. See, games I’ve written about previously – Resident Evil 5, Sly 2, Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time, they all had something in common.

Given that I still have a plethora of impressive DS titles to play, even I’m not sure why I recently started going through a bunch of puzzle games. Instead of treating myself to ‘Last Window’, the sequel to the incredibly impressive ‘Hotel Dusk’, I’ve been tapping blocks on ‘Picross DS’ in the hope that what’s … Continue reading Dopefish Reviews DS Puzzle Games
