As a Suikoden successor, Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes is faithful to a fault.
Though Harold Halibut leaves me with a lot to pick at, it’s a fitting debut for what’s sure to become one of gaming’s most exciting new studios. Like Harold himself, Slow Bros. finds itself pushing gaming’s mundane comfort zone into the stratosphere with an approach that few will dare to replicate. It’s a bold risk; I’m sure the studio could have made a lot of commercially viable games in the 14 years it took to put this together. But why settle for stagnation?

Islands of Insight is the modern reinvention the puzzle genre needs.
Ultros is a bold and beautiful artistic vision, but a convoluted Metroidvania.
