Be The Hero Of Your Own Greek Epic In ‘Argonus And The Gods Of Stone’

PC gamers will be given the opportunity to challenge the gods in order to save their friends in their own Greek Epic Argonus and the Gods of Stone by indie game developer Zojoi, the makers of Shadowgate. Players take on the role of Argonus, who washed ashore after his ship Argo crashed against the strange land that he must now explore in order to find his compatriots, the Argonauts. Argonus will face many perils in the form of creatures from Greek Mythology, puzzles, and the Greek Gods themselves. Argonus’s journey is not entirely dire as he is aided by the goddess Athena. The game was inspired by the works of stop-motion legend Ray Harryhausen (Jason and the Argonauts, Clash of the Titans) whose famed sword-wielding skeletons are one of the many foes you must encounter in this first-person experience. Argonus and the Gods of Stone is available now on Steam and Humble stores, along with the main game, the DLC

Game Review: ‘The Church In The Darkness’

Fellow Traveler and Paranoid Productions indoctrinated me into the Collective Justice Mission and have sent me down to South America to join my fellow members of the congregation in Freedom Town… Well, they were just cool enough to let me try out their game The Church in the Darkness. The game takes place in the 1970s where you take on the role of an ex-cop named Vic who infiltrates the Collective Justice Mission cult’s paradise Freedom Town in what seems to be an eerie parody of Jonestown. Vic’s mission is to find his nephew Alex to see if he’s alright but soon after you arrive, you realize not everything is well. The game is a top view game where you can zoom in a little bit to see more details but other than that, this is the only angle you will see. This actually does help as when you couch you can see the guard’s field of view (depending on

‘We Happy Few’ DLC ‘Lightbearer’ Is A Trippy Must!

Gearbox Software and Compulsion Games in recent months released a Season Pass for their dystopian psychedelic mod game, We Happy Few. Gearbox was kind enough to share with me the season pass so I can experience one of three DLCs, this one in particular titled Lightbearer that follows a rock icon of the fictional English Island-state of Wellington, Nick Lightbearer. Lightbearer appears in the main game for a short time but images of him are everywhere. In the Lightbearer DLC, it becomes obvious that there are two kinds of people in Wellington, those who still like Nick Lightbearer, and those who despise him. Nick’s star is quickly fading as all the sex, and drugs are killing his rock and roll life. Nick is troubled not only by the fact that he’s burning out but that there’s a series of murders taking place around the hotel he’s staying at, and he’s linked to them! Not onto the game. Nick, being a

Game Review: ‘They Are Billions’

The awesome folks over at Blitworks and Numantian Games gave me the opportunity to don my goggles and top hat in order to fight off the ever-hungry hoard of the undead in their upcoming Steampunk survival game, They are Billions. This real-time strategy city building game with a tower defense twist takes place on a planet that’s being colonized until a zombie outbreak occurred turning most of the planet’s inhabitants into an infected hoard and it’s not up to you to rebuild civilization. This game is truly a twist on some of your more traditional tower defense style games as the enemies don’t exactly follow a route, they can come from any direction! Because of this I actually lost the game a couple of times. Usually, I save the bad things about a game for the end of the review but I’ll actually get it out of the way this time as there is only one real negative thing I
