Each of us has films or series that we can watch over and over again without ever getting tired of them – for me the Indiana Jones films definitely belong in this category (yes, even the fourth one – I haven’t watched the fifth one yet). So it probably didn’t surprise anyone that I loved the “Lego Indiana Jones” video games. What I didn’t know for a long time: there is also Indiana Jones Point & Click Adventures! We’re talking about one of them today: the fate of Atlantis!

Sly Nino – Master Thief
We’ve already played some platformer classics on the Playstation 2, but I didn’t even notice many of them at the time. That’s exactly what happened to me with “Sly Cooper” – a game loved by many that was suggested to me recently. We tried the first part of the trilogy; You can read how I liked it here.
Continue readingToo poor too die
Today’s game is a product of that strange transitional period in computer gaming, where point-and-click adventures were still popular, but 3D graphics were seen as a requirement – more by the developers than by the players in my experience though. “Grim Fandango” joins in with its very own story – let’s talk about how I liked the result here.
Continue readingThe worst Lego-Pirate you’ve ever seen
I’ve already mentioned it in the article about “Lego Star Wars“, but I can only repeat it: I just like the older Lego action-adventure games from Traveller’s Tales. Actually, I had already said everything in that article, but when we recently played “Lego Pirates of the Caribbean: The Video Game”, I noticed a few differences to Star Wars – here you can read what they are and how I liked them.

Games with a Disney license are always quite easy to evaluate, because in my experience they only come in two forms: either a grandiose adventure or a quick and cheap license recycling. Today’s game definitely belongs in the first category, mainly because of some interesting features. Let’s discuss them here.
Continue readingLike the Simpsons, just better
As most of you probably already know, I’m a huge fan of the tv show “Family Guy”. I don’t know why, but I just love the mixture of very dull and very profound humor – more than the competition from, for example, “The Simpsons”. This article is not supposed to be about the show, but about the video game of the same name – does it get me hooked just like the show?
Continue readingI like trains
It’s hard to pick out games that I enjoy and are well streamable from the mass of games available, so I often rely on recommendations. I get these from you, via short videos on Instagram or TikTok, or sometimes from other streamers. One game that seems to have suddenly experienced a brief hype is “Choo Choo Charles” – a horror game about escaping a monster train. It looked very interesting, so we played it; you can read here whether or not it was worth it.
Continue readingWhere no Nino has gone before
Today we’re going to talk about a game I played a lot on my last vacation: “No Man’s Sky”. Space adventures always excite me, especially when combining action elements with exploration and the sense of solitude of space. When the game came out it was more of a disappointment – but what about now, seven years later?
Continue readingDishonored
Today we’re going to talk about a game that’s been on my list since I was streaming on YouTube: Dishonored. It was described to me as sort of a first-person Assassin’s Creed, so I wanted to give it a try. Let’s see how I liked it.
Continue readingWandering is Nino’s delight
I’m not saying it for the first time, and probably not for the last time either: finding good VR games is hard. Since the big hype of a few years ago, things have not gone completely silent in this genre, but most new games are more limited to casual gamers. “Wanderer” finally seems to be a welcome change – is it though?
