After a good decade and a half of planning and saving, my wife and I were finally able to visit Hawaii. We traveled to Maui and spent a week on the eastern shore, in a region called Hana. There's basically one hotel there, which used to be the Hana Hotel and is now Travaasa Hana. If you're thinking of traveling to Maui to visit Travasaa or Hana, read on!
Kerbal Space Program (often abbreviated KSP) is a rocketry and space simulation game that has been available in some form or another for the last 5 years. On PCs, Kerbal Space Program has been out of Early Access since April 2015. Now a console version of KSP is available for both PS4 and Xbox One. I got a review code for the Xbox One version, and after spending some quality time with a few Kerbals, I'm ready to weigh in. Stand by for launch - here comes my Kerbal Space Program Xbox One review.
Recently I got to sit down with Zombie Night Terror from developer NoClip, a game that previously got high praise from WOTS when we saw an early build at PAX. The game is now finished and released, and with more time to play it was quite and undead feast.
DubWars wouldn't be much without awesome graphics and effects, but luckily this is where the game shines the most. The levels manage to be highly frenetic and still visually appealing at the same time. About five levels in I encountered "Tough Guy", which includes a central rotating-laser-of-death and a spinning visual tunnelling effect similar to the Death Start trench run. Executing perfect evasions and firing back at just the right moment when the base drops feels epic and makes you feel that much more connected to what is already a really powerful soundscape.
As part of the latest update SuperCell added Clash Royale Tournament, and after a week of clashing it up we're ready to share our Top 4 Clash Royale Tournament tips, along with some bonus pro tips along the way. Enjoy!
Infinium Strike puts you in the captain's chair of humanity's last hope - the battlecarrier Freedom Strike. Aliens, man. It's always aliens. They've come to destroy us, like for reals. Us puny humans have mostly lost the war, but we managed to discover the secrets of a material called "Infinium" that has all sorts of nifty properties. With it, we're able to strike back (get it?) and perhaps deal a killing blow to the Wrog. If tower-defense games keep you up all night, you really should learn more about Infinium Strike. Lucky for you, we're just about to start my Infinium Strike review!
Crush Your Enemies is one of a few games we saw at the Gambitious booth at PAX South, where the viking-helmet adorned team from Vile Monarch was on hand to ease us into the world of barbarianism. A couple months later, I scored a pre-release build of the game and streamed it. Now, the full version is available at the usual digital storefronts. I've had early access to the final release for a few weeks now, so I've done a lot of crushing! Now I'm ready to report on Crush Your Enemies in my full review!
SteamWorld Heist is the most recent game in the SteamWorld series from Image & Form games, a Swedish indie studio. I played (and thoroughly enjoyed) SteamWorld Dig, so I figured it was worth checking out Heist to see if Image & Form could do as good a job with Heist as they did with Dig. Heist feels more like a combination of XCOM, Worms, and Firefly. That's setting the bar high - does Heist clear it? Now that I've spent a couple dozen hours with Heist, I'm ready to pass judgement. Coming up next on Without the Sarcasm is my SteamWorld Heist review!
While we were at RTX 2016 this year we got to spend some quality time with a demo of Pyre from SuperGiant Games. If you've read many of our previous reviews, you'll know that we are big SuperGiant fans.
This year we expanded our con-going to include the Rooster Teeth Expo, or RTX. It's a bit smaller than PAX and SxSW, and the focus is more on the Rooster Teeth personalities than showing off a lot of games. However, we still drank in all the con floor games we could hold, plus a few extra for good measure. Now we're ready to announce our Best in Show and Editor's Choice winners for RTX 2016!
