Ridiculous Fishing is everything the name promises and more. You’ve probably heard of Ridiculous Fishing before because it’s gotten a bunch of awards, but if you haven’t, or haven’t tried it, then I suggest you do so now. I admit the first time I played Vlambeer’s Ridiculous Fishing I was too absorbed in Rymdkapsel to really […]
Unwind with Dream of Pixels by Dawn of Play
A refreshing homage to Tetris. There’s a lot of falling block games out there that add nothing worthwhile to the classic Tetris, but Dream of Pixels by Dawn of Play has a satisfying twist. Instead of stacking blocks, you separate them. The reversal of the classic makes the experience rather meditative. You free the tetraminos to […]
