Why us
We actually play
Every review comes after real hours in the game, not a quick trailer skim. If we didn't finish it, we tell you.
No paid placements
Nobody pays us to bump a score. What you read is what the editor thought after playing.
Tested offline
We put phones in airplane mode and see what survives. Only genuinely offline-friendly games get recommended.

Ember of the Lost Vale
★★★★★ 4.7
Ember of the Lost Vale is the kind of RPG we hoped mobile would get more of. You build a small party, explore a compact but dense map, and fight in a clean turn-based system that rewards planning over grinding. The writing has actual personality — companions bicker, choices stick.
- Meaty turn-based combat
- Full campaign playable offline
- Strong writing and companions

Questions & answers
How do you choose which games to review?
We look for games that run well offline and are actually enjoyable, then we play them ourselves for hours before writing. Genre doesn't matter much — we cover RPGs, puzzles, racers and sims alike. The one hard rule is that a game has to work without a connection to earn a spot here.
Do you get paid to write reviews?
No. Nobody pays us to review a game or to bump up a score. We buy or download the games ourselves and write our honest opinion, even when it's not flattering.
How can I suggest a game for you to cover?
Just email us with the game's name and where to find it. If it runs offline and looks interesting, we'll add it to our testing queue. We can't promise to cover everything, but we read every suggestion.
Is there advertising on the site?
We may run light, non-intrusive ads to keep the lights on, but they never influence our reviews. For example, our take on Big Bass Fishin was written purely from our own play sessions, with no arrangement behind it. Editorial and ads stay completely separate.
