Gorgeously creepy horror RPG, Stygian: Reign of the Old Ones won us over with its Kickstarter campaign and secured funding. Now that the dust has settled and developer Cultic Games has had a chance to set up in their new office, they’ve decided to warn backers of their…
This week’s Kickstarter Game of the Week is, of course, Lost Ember. It’s a game in which you play a wolf wandering around a beautiful landscape. That’s really all you need to know, because the game looks absolutely gorgeous. Okay, a little more info. You’re…
I like noir stories. I’m also a fan of comedic games. Put those together with a healthy dose of adventure and it’s sure to be a hit with me. Coming soon to crowdfunding is a point and click title featuring both of those, as well…
Goofy, but somehow awesome, pirate FPS Blackwake has reopened its backing for new prospecting swashbucklers. Despite hitting successful funding last year, the developers decided to reopen the campaign through their site after a survey revealed people were interested. Those who back the game on the…
Pitching a pinball game on Kickstarter must be the hardest thing to do in the world. (Minus all the jobs and positions that can legitimately lay claim to that title anyway.) There’s just no way to adequately convey if the game will be any good…
Sydney Hunter and the Caverns of Death is a Kickstarter campaign designed solely to appeal to retro gamers. As Cliqist contributor, and avid occasional YouTuber watcher, Marcus Estrada pointed out, the Kickstarter spent less time talking about the game, and more time trying to attract retro…
I’m a fan of first person shooters. From the moment I got my hands on the shareware versions of Doom and Quake I was hooked. However, today I need a little bit more than a gorefest to get my adrenaline pumping. Unfortunately, it looks like…
I don’t think I’ve ever played a game where a wolf was the main character. There was this one time in Dark Souls when I had a close encounter with one of the creatures. Although, that mostly involved me quietly sobbing in the corner of my room…
Nevermind is one of the few games which actively tries to make you look like Robocop. Up until now, this psychological horror allowed you to hook up a heart-rate monitor, enable motion-sensors, and play with eye-tracking gear. Now, this odd puzzle of immersion seems to be finished with two…
Does the prospect of taking control of a gun-toting dragon in an old-school ‘run & gun’ game intrigue you? Then go and download the demo for Dragon Bros RIGHT NOW. You’ll most likely blitz through the variety of stages on offer and instantly crave some…
Game delays, particularly for crowdfunded projects, are pretty common. Despite this risk, backers are usually pretty good sports about delays. At least, as long as the developer is up-front about them and the final product warrants the extra time. I was expecting a release date for Friday the…
After completing a massively successful Kickstarter Campaign, developer Night Dive Studios has launched full force into preproduction of the System Shock remake. The campaign managed to raise over $1.3 million dollars to produce an updated version of the 1994 classic. Fans who missed their chance…
Alright, I’ll admit it, I’m a total sucker for Halloween horror. Most of the year I can keep my urge for spooky media relatively in check, but come October, the weather changes and I need scary in my life again. Fortunately, crowdfunding platforms have a…
It is my professional opinion that we have not written about Undertale enough on this website. Considered to be one of the greatest games of all-time, it was Kickstarted in 2013. Yet you’d think it didn’t exist if you’re a frequent reader of ours. Perhaps…
Northern Regiment: 1862 is bound to attract comparisons from The Long Dark. It’s a Kickstarter game based on survival in extremely realistic conditions in the Great White North. There are no zombies are monsters to kill, and no trees that require felling with your bare…
