I haven’t done one of these in quite a while since I haven’t really been buying any apps lately. Well this post is featuring the newly released Tiny Toots (since it’s actually new) with a few older titles I never got around to talking about. I recently got a Windows 7 phone so hopefully I’ll do a few things from...

So here we are in 2012, and I’m sure you noticed there was no Midnight Run this year.

Our first Classic Game That Never Was this week is Mystic Guardian, a Gauntlet clone released on the SNES that tried to add a bit of story to the hack n’ slash RPG. (more…)

Today marks the three year anniversary of MonsterVine, a website that I hold near and dear to my heart. Not only because it’s the site I write for, but for giving me the opportunity to get a foot in the door of the industry I love. (more…)

Our first Classic Game That Never Was is Sword of Eternity, (or Eien no Sword in Japan) a traditional RPG on the Super NES that tried to combine the turn based combat of Final Fantasy and Dragon Quest with the exploration Zelda was known for. The result was a challenging yet charming RPG with memorable characters and huge dungeons filled with traps and treasure. (more…)

It’s been a while since I’ve done any fanfiction writing around here, so what better time than MonsterVine’s 3rd birthday than to restart that?

Only, this won’t be a story per se…this will be a tribute to the games that came before in the forms of Classic Games That Never Were. (more…)
