This Week's Games
Here are the major game releases for the week of July 15th-21st, 2018.
Adventure Time: Pirates of the Enchiridion
The Land of Ooo is underwater and it's up to Finn and Jake to find out why. Join our heroes as they explore the high seas, search for hidden clues, interrogate shady suspects and fight pirates to solve the mystery and save their waterlogged world!
Grimlock's Must or Bust:
Bust- It's just too basic; the characters and writing are solid if you are an Adventure Time fan but the gameplay is boring, with no creative mechanics. This is a core turn-based RPG with a popular skin thrown on top.
Sanrio Characters Picross
This is a puzzle game using Sanrio characters.
Solve Picross puzzles to unveil pictures and get cute stickers to decorate your screen with!
Or use them on game backgrounds!
Enjoy Picross with your own background!
Grimlock's Must or Bust:
Bust- It's Sanrio which means it's Hello Kitty which means HELL NO! Picross is a fine puzzle game but give me any other license besides Sanrio and I would be on board.
Farcry 5: Lost on Mars
In this pack, Nick Rye, having survived Hope County, is dropped on Mars along with Hurk to fight against an invasion of giant alien spiders. Their goal is to restore humanity's last line of defense, an AI named ANNE.
Grimlock's Must or Bust:
Bust- Another failed DLC; boring open-world, mixed with old mechanics and new skins, leads to a lack luster DLC. If you bought the season pass for this game I think Ubisoft owes you a refund.
Tempest 4000
Tempest 4000™ is a visually stunning, action-packed tube shooter based on the classic hit arcade game, Tempest™.
Grimlock's Must or Bust:
Must - It's a spiritual successor to Tempest 2000! If you never had the chance to play Tempest 2000 on the Atari Jaguar, then pick this up and enjoy an amazing shooter with a great soundtrack.

Nidhogg 2
The rules are simple. Reach the other side and kill anyone that stands in your way. Deftly parry and rend their throats, riddle their bowels with arrows, or squish their brains between your toes. The wurm cares not for chivalry.
Grimlock's Must or Bust:
Must - An insane game of tug of war mixed with sword fighting and some of the craziest graphics you have ever seen, Nidhogg 2 takes everything from the first game and adds some more ridiculousness to the series.
