Dicey Dungeons made deck-building interesting by turning genre conventions on their head in its various playstyles. It is a game that everyone should give a whirl, even if they don't typically like roguelikes or deck-based games. Dicey Dungeons never stops being fun and is far and away the best indie game I played this year. I don't have a joke for this one, but I think the jokes have been on a good roll thus Fable: The Journey represents Microsoft 's latest - and likely final - attempt to prov...

Fable was one of those titles that caught my attention well before its release in some article in a game magazine back when paper gaming magazines were still in abundant supply. How far exactly before the release is uncertain, but I want to say it was well over a year before Fable's launch, possibly even as far back as 2002 or 2003 when it was still called its working title Project Ego. Open world gameplay has practically become the standard in modern game design, but this was not the case in th...

While Fable proper was about taking one's player through a pre-determined life cycle — making life-altering decisions along the way — Fable Heroes puts up to four players in control of a wide variety of Fable archetypes. Rather than giving each player the gameplay mechanics present in the RPG version of the game, Heroes designates each player's "puppet hero" with a specific skill. There are a handful of puppets to choose from, some of which hearken back to key moments in Fable 's history, but al...

Not only was the Metroid Prime 4 announcement surprising, but so too was the confirmation that the game isn't being developed by Retro Studios . Retro worked on the original trilogy of Metroid Prime games, and many fans were expecting the studio to return for Metroid Prime 4 , only to learn that the game is being developed by a brand new team. But if Retro Studios isn't working on Metroid Prime 4 , what could it possibly be developing? Its last game, Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze , launch...

Based on the Fables comic books by Bill Willingham, The Wolf Among Us is a cool, noir detective story with a fantasy twist. When characters from fairy tales are exiled to live in the human world, the Big Bad Wolf changes his ways and becomes Sheriff Bigby Wolf, the lawkeeper of Fabletown. After discovering the horrible murder of a young woman, Bigby embarks on a desperate hunt for a serial killer and along the way finds himself digging deeper into the corruption and organized crime at the heart ...

However, in the last few months, rumors have been swirling about a long-awaited return to form for the oddball, extremely British franchise. While no official announcement has been made, there are rumblings all over the internet about a new Fable being in development. Whether this will officially be Fable 4 , a reboot, a remake, or some kind of spin-off, is all unclear. What I've put together is a list of the wishes that have been flying around over the last half year. Since the cancellation of ...

The first thing to know about Fable 3 is that it's pure and simple fun. Traveling through the land of Albion is an enjoyable experience, interacting with the locals, completing quests, battling monsters and saving the day. The second thing to know is that Fable 3 is flawed in some key areas which prevents it from being an elite g While many gamers have the press conferences for both Sony and Nintendo pretty well figured out, the big question mark in the room is the Microsoft conference. There ar...

This idea continues with microtransactions, something that Molyneux has been dead-set on improving. Trust me, I don’t like how microtransactions are being used today , but Molyneux has been working on ways to use them without letting them lean toward the realm of exploitation. He’s condemned the use of microtransactions in the mobile version of Dungeon Keeper , claiming they are not consumer-friendly, but he wants to find a way to make them palatable to an audience. That’s become something of an...

To be fair, we were warned ahead of time that Death Stranding wouldn't be at E3 2017. Even so, Hideo Kojima's reputation for tricking fans meant that there was still a slim possibility the game would make a surprise appearance during Sony's E3 press conference. Unfortunately, Death Stranding was nowhere to be seen at the show, meaning fans are still largely in the dark about its gameplay features, story, and whether or not there is any truth to the Emma Stone casting rumo One way Nintendo has be...
