Kakuchopurei’s Best of 2019: Cadence Of Hyrule

Music is always the weapon, especially in the peppy EDM-esque world of Cadence of Hyrule. Essentially a heavily-modified Crypt of the Necrodancer, a top-down roguelike with awesome rhythm music gameplay, this Nintendo collaboration arguably improves the existing formula. How? By making it a more open-ended adventure where you can tackle whichever ...

Kakuchopurei’s Best Of 2019: River City Girls

Older gamers will remember playing a lot of classic side-scrolling beat-em-ups and brawlers back in the day before the advent of better tech took the gaming world by storm and introduced us to fully-realized 3D worlds. Thanks to developers like WayForward, we can still get those same games albeit with modern trappings. That's where River City Girl...

Kakuchopurei’s Best Of 2019: Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled

No one expected Naughty Dog's Crash Team Racing for the PS1 in 1999 to be a genuine rival to Nintendo's legendary Mario Kart franchise, at least in Asia. But it definitely was, to the point where it was arguably even better than 1996's Mario Kart 64. Now, two decades later, Activision and Beenox give us the remake we all wanted with Crash Team Rac...

Kakuchopurei’s Best Of 2019: Disco Elysium

Some gamers would argue that reading is the worst part of playing a video game. This includes RPG players who often skip the many lore entries scattered in books and other collectibles. Well, Disco Elysium is an RPG that makes you spend 99% of the time reading. Wait, hear me out. Those who have played Disco Elysium would sometimes say that you'...

Kakuchopurei’s Best Of 2019: Devil May Cry 5

After 11 years of waiting for a proper sequel, Capcom finally gave us the game we've all been waiting for. It isn't just one of the best action games in 2019, it's one of the action games ever made. Everyone says that Devil May Cry V is a return to form for the series after the horrible detour that was DmC: Devil May Cry and they're absolutely r...

Kakuchopurei’s Best Of 2019: Katana Zero

Any game that starts with a pitch that goes "You play as a samurai..." is already enough to convince a lot of folks. Katana Zero takes that pitch and slaps on a bunch of other really cool video game ideas. The premise is simple and cool. You play as a samurai assassin called The Dragon. It all starts out with you doing what you do best but the s...

Kakuchopurei Best of 2019: Total War – Three Kingdoms

Total War: Three Kingdoms (TW3K) plays off like an elaborate 200-episode drama which you, the player assume the role as Director sans the control over the outcome of a big battle. Or sometimes, betrayal and defection. After a brief venture into the fantasy-like setting via the world of Warhammer followed by a forgettable return to hard reality via...

Kakuchopurei’s Best of 2019: Devotion

As time goes by, it becomes more difficult to make an impressive horror game. It's one of those genres that heavily relies on a select number of tropes and cliches but Devotion manages to make a modern horror game that will stick in the minds of those who play it. Developed by Taiwanese studio Red Candle Games, Devotion tells the tragic story of...

Kakuchopurei’s Best Of 2019: Fire Emblem Three Houses

What happens when you combine the anime-tinged dating sim mechanics of the Persona series with the isometric grid and turn-based combat of XCOM or Final Fantasy Tactics? You get Fire Emblem: Three Houses, the latest instalment of the long-running JRPG franchise exclusively for the Nintendo Switch. Players assume the role of a professor at an acad...

Kakuchopurei’s Best Of 2019: Resident Evil 2 Remake

Capcom is going through a resurgence, renaissance or comeback of sorts after an entire generation of mediocre games. They started bouncing back with 2017's Resident Evil 7: Biohazard and continued that streak with 2018's Monster Hunter World. In 2019 alone, they gave us Devil May Cry 5 and this brilliant remake of 1998's Resident Evil 2. While I n...

Kakuchopurei’s Best Of 2019: Luigi’s Mansion 3

Luigi has always played second fiddle to his more heroic and popular brother, Mario. However, this year he received his own game starring role in a game again, after more than half a decade since 2013's Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon. Luigi's Mansion 3 came out on Halloween day, and it's basically a Ghostbusters game with the quirks and charm of the N...

Kakuchopurei’s Best Of 2019: Samurai Shodown

There's always something sublime about having a fighting game return to form while also injecting something new in a competitive scene. The 2019 version of Samurai Shodown does just that with a ton of swordplay and with raw power. What it lacks in esports tailoring and flair -like with Street Fighter V and Tekken 7 these days- it makes up for it b...

Kakuchopurei’s Best Of 2019: Ace Combat 7

Ace Combat 7: Skies Unknown successfully revived a genre long-lost in the steady stream of mindless battle royales and MOBAs saturating the market; the arcade flight sim. It’s been a whopping 12 years since the last major instalment in the Ace Combat franchise, let alone any other lesser-known arcade flight sim franchises. Ace Combat is ess...

Kakuchopurei’s Best Of 2019: Astral Chain

After releasing stellar action titles like Bayonetta, Vanquish, and Nier: Automata, how else can PlatinumGames top themselves? Simple: just add a JoJo Stand; as an additional character to mix up your attacks, put your game in a sci-fi police setting, and keep in a Nintendo Switch exclusive. Quirky and charming characters, oddities like toilet pape...

Kakuchopurei’s Best Of 2019: Outer Wilds

A true adventure has to incorporate elements of exploration. One of the reasons why we love video games is because they let us explore places and time periods that aren't accessible to us in reality. Outer Wilds is a game that nails that feeling of exploration. A lot of games try to create the experience of discovering something new through the...

Kakuchopurei’s Best of 2019: The Outer Worlds

Obsidian Entertainment is a well-known name in the RPG market. They're famous for making hit games such as Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic II: The Sith Lords, Pillars of Eternity, and Fallout New Vegas; all of them are regarded as hits. As you can imagine, any game they do after that needs to live up to these. Thankfully, The Outer Worlds do...

Kakuchopurei’s Best of 2019: What The Golf?

As time goes by, it becomes harder and harder to create something original. The act of surprising people in video games takes a lot of effort and creativity. Now imagine a game that surprises consistently for at least an entire hour. What the Golf? does exactly that. Describing the premise of What the Golf is easy. You win by hitting the ball a...

Kakuchopurei’s Best of 2019: Sekiro – Shadows Die Twice

Unflinchingly brutal, yet rewarding. That is Sekiro in a nutshell. It doesn't compromise on its vision to be an action game that centres around a more fragile depiction of a shinobi; a stark contrast to the Xbox iteration of Ninja Gaiden where it's a different kind of hard. And truth be told, I am a fan of the flash and huge weapon selection. Yeah...

Remember The Awesome Pixel Art Of The PlayStation 1 Era?

In case you couldn't tell byour recent Facebook cover page updates, we REALLY dig the pixel artwork of the PS1. It's funny: despite the console having limited capabilities in doing 2D sprites when compared to the Sega Saturn in the same era, somehow or other it came out as the better console in the long-run when it comes to overall graphics. Simp...
