Widespread love of quality word games has permeated throughout the history of puzzle pastimes. Whether that’s games like Hangman, Crosswords, Scrabble, Boggle, or more recently Wordle, there are limitless variations on finding joy in parsing together pieces of our collective vocabulary and alphabet to accomplish various goals. Entering the scene is a mix of many of those games in “Birdigo”, created by screenwriter John August (Corpse Bride, Charlie’s Angels) and developer Corey Martin (Bonfire Peaks, Pipe Push Paradise). You’ll guide various birds along their migration paths by crafting words using a custom “deck” of letters that you draw from at the start of every turn. Utilizing a healthy dose of Balatro-like elements to boost your scoring power as you guide your bird along a roguelike migration path to reach their final destination, Birdigo excels at providing a simple game concept with satisfying scoring devices and a “one more round” addictiveness that makes it hard to put down.

Back in my high school years, me and my friends, whenever we were on the computers, always played whatever game we found on Shockwave or that someone had downloaded and passed around to us, with the biggest being the original Halo: Combat Evolved. But, one we sank the most hours in was a small title called Pocket Tanks, where the objective was to get more points by hitting the opponents tank with whatever weapon you have, be it explosives or other wild weaponry. Why do I bring up Pocket Tanks? Well, at the time, I had no idea it was inspired by an older game called Scorched Earth, which in turn inspired another game and the subject of today’s review: Worms, in particular Worms Armageddon: Anniversary Edition and, I’m not going to lie, if you were a fan of the original, then this game’s for you. But for newcomers, not so much.

You don’t often expect the level of world-building and story-crafting woven into games like Back to the Dawn, a gritty, engrossing, and multi-layered RPG game by Metal Head Games that just released out of Early Access. But I found myself locked inside the prison escape narrative just like its protagonists. Featuring fantastic game design and narrative pacing with just the right amount of quirkiness, Back to the Dawn can go lots of ways in its main campaigns, and it's hard not to wonder if you’re making the right move as your fate becomes more and more unpredictable.

Every year, there seems to be a game that comes out and does something to really grab gamers attention, to where every developer wants to capitalize on it in their own way; From the many Half-Life style games to those aping Doom Eternal’s gameplay. This year, it seems the game to take inspiration from was Vampire Survivors. Now, we had Vampire Hunters which took the core concept but put it in first person (and, speaking personally, was one of my favorite games of 2024), so what happens when you take the concept of Survivors and, say, put it in space? That’s where Greedland comes in: A game, outside of accidentally calling it Greenland, is another fun ‘Vampire Survivor-like’ game, if not just slightly rough around the edges.
