  • Digital Leisure in 2011 – Beyond Dragon’s Lair & Space Ace

    Posted by on March 6, 2011 under News
    When asked about Digital Leisure’s 2011 line-up, Paul Gold could only say, "We hope to make some announcements in the coming weeks as we finalize our 2011 releases." If we consider the current trend of Laser Disc games already released on Playstation 3, Dragon's Lair II: Timewarp seems like the next logical choice. But this doesn't explain the other projects that Paul Gold hinted at. In a r... more.

  • POTUS (Review) iPhone/iPod/iPad

    Posted by on January 30, 2011 under Portables, Reviews
    For everyone wondering what a Sarah Palin presidency would be like, this is your chance. All problems and solutions facing the Oval Office are dealt with in less than 140 characters. Nothing matters but your approval rating. And literally rolling the dice to make decisions is as effective as tackling the situation with your intellect. A hardcore political junkie since the fifth grade, I've b... more.
  • Flick Buddies (Review) iPhone/iPod/iPad

    Posted by on December 28, 2010 under Portables, Reviews
    A lot of reviews describe games as good for a 10-minute diversion. This is generally assumed to mean "at a time." This 99-cent physics puzzle/action app involves flicking your "buddies" into a target surrounded by obstacles, competing with up to three human/computer opponents for the highest score before time runs out. The multiplayer aspect is heavily hyped and I acknowledge my brief conquest ... more.
  • Riven (Review) iPhone/iPod/iPad

    Posted by on December 28, 2010 under Portables, Reviews
    Just to avoid suspense: • If you hated it then, you'll hate it now. • If the difficulty kept you from enjoying it years ago, time for a return visit. • If screenshots of the characters and landscape replaced the family portraits on your wall and you're wondering if there's anything new to idolize, not really. • If you've never heard of Riven and your standard of iPhone adventur... more.
  • Puzzle Quest 2 (Review) iPhone/iPod/iPhone

    Posted by on December 23, 2010 under Portables, Reviews
    There's a certain dread booting up the sequel to a favorite game, knowing that despite the "bigger and better" hype there's a good chance it's not going to rekindle the affection of that first love. And, sure enough, this doesn't rouse enough sparks for more than a goodnight hug at the door. It's not a train wreck and some fans of the original will get their money's worth. But newbies and match... more.
  • Inkub (Review) iPhone/iPod/iPad

    Posted by on December 13, 2010 under Portables, Reviews
    Germs that can wipe out the planet are cool. Surely the millions who made "The Stand" Stephen King's best-selling book can't all be wrong. He even came out with a second, far more verbose, version 10 years later (full of typos and errors thanks to now-obsolete references). No idea what it says about society when we're enthralled by nearly all of the planet being wiped out, but it certainly offers... more.

  • Animal Ark Africa (Review) iPhone/iPod/iPad

    Posted by on October 5, 2010 under Portables, Reviews
    Animal Ark Africa is the first iPhone game from Slovakia, a massively overlooked gem of a country in Central Europe with mountains and a society thriving rapidly as it plays catch-up from the old Soviet days. A severely limited encyclopedia, to be sure, and furthermore only 13 of the 28 entries actually work in the initial release. That's probably a good summary for the game as a whole, since a... more.
  • Rocketeer (Review) iPhone/iPad/iPod

    Posted by on September 20, 2010 under Portables, Reviews
    This iPhone app is about navigating a rocket through 83 screens of outer space by launching it slingshot style at an angle that allows it to a reach a blue teleport that transports the ship to the next level. Affecting your rocket's flight is an increasingly challenging scattering of planets with varying gravitational pulls, lasers, asteroid belts, bumpers and other stuff scientists keep trying to... more.
