Do you want Puyo Puyo if it wasn't very fun at all and a confusing mess? Do I have the game for you here.

Dr. Fetus' Mean Meat Machine wants both to be a puzzle game and have the brutal challenge of Meat Boy without making either element work well with each other. You are discouraged from making combos because you have to watch out for the obstacles that aren't fun to avoid, the boss fights are boring as hell, and the level design is such a mess like Forever.

Once again, the presentation is the only saving grace of this package. Shoutouts to the talented animators for these cutscenes, but besides that, everything else in this game is a lost cause and it has to be an accomplishment to make a bad Puyo Puyo clone.

It's slightly better than Super Meat Boy: Forever, but so is going from getting stabbed to eating burned toast. Neither is a pleasant experience at all.

At first glance, Pushmo appears to be a simple tile puzzle game, but it's much more challenging than it seems when playing the game. It starts off easy with the tutorial, but once you're on your own, the 250+ short puzzle challenges will really test your skills. I was taken aback at first, but came around to find it this game’s biggest strength. It really does test my skills in solving tile puzzles consistently and therefore keeps me engaged from start to finish. It would’ve been the opposite if the game was a breeze from the get-go with the tile puzzles.

However, Intelligent Systems thought that it was a bright idea to allow players to skip levels when they are stuck on them for a while, and I don't like this at all as it diminishes the challenge of the game. The only punishment for players is not getting the main collectible in that particular level, but that doesn't feel like a huge punishment at all. Besides that, my other complaint is that the tutorial was a bit slow to get through with these lessons that you have to do.

Nonetheless, this was a pleasant surprise to experience, having way more meat and challenge to it than it looks at surface level. Definitely play it if you are looking for a solid tile puzzle game to sink your teeth into for a while on the 3ds.

Lucky Mountain Games, Curve Digital, and Sumo Nottingham have created a superb arcade racer that pays homage to the beloved Sega racing games of the past. While I haven't played those games myself, I must confess, I can still confidently say that it is a well-crafted and fun as hell experience in its own right with tight controls, good track design, and the colorful low poly visuals that give the game a ton of personality.

My only major complaint with this game is that the voice lines in races were really annoying or so repetitive that I had to eventually turn them off. It's a shame because I genuinely enjoy the announcer's voice. For just 20 dollars, I strongly recommend getting this package, and it's an incredible deal if it goes on sale. If you're seeking an arcade racer that can be enjoyed without investing too much time into it, this is the game for you.
