Why us

We finish the games

Reviews come after we've actually played through the content, not after a trailer and ten minutes of the tutorial.

No paid praise

Studios don't buy coverage here. Our opinions stay ours, even the grumpy ones.

Every genre counts

Puzzles, RPGs, racers, strategy — we test them all and treat casual games with the same care as the big releases.

Editor’s pick

Ashfall Chronicle
RPG/ролевая

Ashfall Chronicle

★★★★★ 4.6

Ashfall Chronicle is a proper RPG that respects your time without dumbing itself down. You build a party of four, each with branching skill trees, and work through a story about a kingdom slowly being buried under volcanic ash. The writing is better than most mobile RPGs — characters actually change their minds about things.

  • Thoughtful turn-based combat with real tactics
  • Characters and story that develop properly
  • Fair progression, no pressure to grind endlessly

Questions & answers

How do you choose which games to review?

Mostly it comes down to what we're actually playing and find interesting enough to finish. Someone on the team brings a game to the group, and if it holds our attention past the first few evenings, we write it up. We try to cover every genre rather than chasing only the big releases.

Do studios pay you for reviews?

No. We don't accept payment or any kind of deal in exchange for coverage or a higher rating. Every opinion on the site is our own, and we'll happily say when a game disappointed us.

Can I suggest a game you should cover?

Absolutely, and we read every suggestion. Email us with the name and a line about why you think it's worth our time. We can't promise to cover everything, but good tips genuinely shape what we play next.

Is there advertising on the site?

We keep the site light and don't run intrusive ads. If we ever discuss a game like Volcane Spins, it's because we played it and had something to say, not because anyone paid for the mention. Any future changes to this would be stated clearly.
