The Walking Dead: Episode 1 is the perfect game for fans of The Walking Dead franchise. In other words, this isn’t another game where you run around and shoot zombies with a near endless supply of weaponry. This experience is more about interacting with other characters, building relationships with...

Escape Plan is a gorgeous 2D platform puzzler with adorable characters, a whimsical yet moody soundtrack, and a set design equal parts industrial, dystopic and Tim Burton-esque. This game makes the best use of the Playstation Vita touchscreen I’ve seen, with both front and back taps internally...
