“I absolutely love Luigi’s Mansion!”. We’ve all experienced a game-induced argument over the years, and for most of us here at Nintendo Life Towers, Ghost Town Games is to thank. This is the developer that brought us Overcooked and subsequently awakened a Michelin-star chef in each of us, barking out orders at our friends and…
Whether you’re in desperate need of an instant Wordle win streak save or you’d just like to make sure you start your daily game on the right foot, everything you need is right here. Give your guesses a helping hand with a clue for the February 17 (973) game if you like, or click your…
MORGAN PARK, STAFF WRITER (Image credit: Future) This week: Got all sappy about the server browser and got very close to downloading Quake. Activision did its big Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 reveal yesterday, and speaking as someone who plays these games a lot, I don’t think anyone’s heart is in it this year….
A clever little tower defense game released earlier this month, and the demo, at least, is damn good.

Black Jewel Reborn for the Sega Mega Drive / Genesis is still in development, PSCD Games said in a recent social media statement. The Rastan-like hack-and-slash game was originally crowdfunded in 2022, with Michael Mrozek (OpenPandora GmbH) setting up the Kickstarter on PSCD…
Back in July, the world’s Neopets nearly got sent to a farm upstate. The edutainment company that maintained the 24-year-old virtual pets webgame was shuttered by its owner, NetDragon, and all the Kortbats and Wockys and Blumaroos might’ve gone with it if a management buyout hadn’t kept the site alive. Now, for the first time…
Sam Barlow talks for the first time about the doomed sequel. “This is one of the most troubled franchises in history,” says Sam Barlow of the Legacy of Kain series. “I think every single entry, even if they launched, launched in a cut, curtailed, broken state. This was a franchise that has never gone to…
I’ll be damned, the punk kid’s finally turned into a true yakuza. Yakuza 0 was the first Yakuza game — after many, many attempts on my part — that finally and fully opened my eyes to the magic of Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio’s long-running (and entirely bats**t) franchise. This was the one that finally did…
Kevin Toms talks ‘Football Star Manager’. While Championship Manager and Football Manager might be considered the giants of the soccer management genre, Kevin Toms deserves his place in history for creating the original Football Manager franchise all the way back in 1982. The first title effectively created the entire genre, and is fondly remembered by…
