“… wherever you are, whoever’s face your blade meets, it’s still a joy to kill all of the things and that fact helps me gloss over a lot of the issues I have with the game.”

Match-3 games are a dime a dozen, so it’s nice when one stands out as having more thought put into it.

Swag & Sorcery appeared to be everything I’ve wanted out of a management/RPG sim, but ends up working like any other number of grindy phone apps that I’ve begrudgingly deleted after a few days.

I love the aesthetics, but hate the barbed wire. If you’re up for a platforming challenge… here you go!

BLAZBLUE CENTRALFICTION: Special Edition’s Stylish mode allows me to pull off all sorts of crazy-looking moves and makes me feel good about myself. Then my four-year old defeats me. Still worth it!
