Flipside of the Divine Full Game released
Posted: 26.02.2008
Comments: 2
This free game from Team Flipside (actually developed as a university project) is sort of a blend of a puzzle game and an action game. Set in the world of ancient Aztec mythology, the player needs to guide a warrior through a series of obstacles and reach a portal on the other side of the given level. It's free and lighweight (less than 50MB's), so give Flipside of the Divine a try.

Joe Bennet played Lost Odyssey by Hironobu Sakaguchi (producer) of Final Fantasy fame working with award-winning Japanese novelist, Kiyoshi Shigematsu handling the story. That pair instills confidence right off the bat. Is that confidence ill-founded? Well one has to play the game to know for sure, but the author can share his opinion. Perhaps that will help.

The third game in this popular series, it features 161 characters (the most in the series), a replay system and online capability, among other features.

Matt Keller played Art of Fighting Anthology. This combines the Art of Fighting trilogy, originally borne out of the "Street Fighter craze" in the early 1990's, into one package. If you remember those days then this title may bring back memories, but if you never played any of the games in the trilogy what can you expect? Hopefully our review will help to answer that question.
