November 11th is a special day in North America as it is known as Veteran's Day in the United States, and it is known as Remembrance Day in Canada.
Instead of posting a press release about games coming out or games being delayed, we at Chalgyr felt that it would be a better idea to promote a charity or two in honor of today.
The most obvious of charities to take a look at is none other than Stackup.org. It started in 2015 to facilitate a strong community of friends, family, and brothers & sisters at arms through the love of video games. Captain Stephen Machuga posted the story of why he began Stackup and it is both terrifying that he was constantly fearful of his surroundings, but he found video games helped him readjust to everyday life.
Stackup has been integral in helping veterans get back on their feet after their time in the service with four different initiatives: Supply Drop, Air Assaults, Phalanx, and StOP. Learn more about these four initiatives and how to support the cause on the website.
Invictus Games Foundation was founded by Prince Harry (yes, that one) after he returned from deployment to Afghanistan. His time in the service opened his eyes to the realities of conflict and disabilities. Thus, Invictus Games Foundation was created as a way to celebrate the unconquered human spirit. Offering recovery for the international wounded, injured, and sick people in service, Invictus Gaming provides a support network and activities in sports, esports, adventurous challenges, and more!
Another great non-profit charity to support is Military & Veteran Gamers whose mission it is to create a safe environment through gaming and mental health peer support programs. It was founded in 2019 and has sent over 100 care packages since inception. On November 11th, they partner with Never Play Alone and Pizza Hut to Provide Pizza for Patriots where veterans, service members, and volunteers get to eat! There are plenty of other programs they offer, so be sure to check out the website for more information.
The Wounded Warrior Project is a livestreaming and gaming initiative designed to build a community of warriors and their families through Discord, gaming activities, and community work. They have over 6000 community members who've streamed video games and have raised $1.4 Million dollars since it began in 2003! This year, Wounded Warrior Project has earned the US Department of Labor HIRE Vets Gold Medallion Award and First Coast Worksite Wellness Council's Healthiest Companies Platinum Award.
There is also a Wounded Warriors Canada program which is a national mental health service provider that began in 2006. They serve professionals in the Canadian Armed Forces, Veterans, Police Officers, Firefighters, Paramedics, Corrections Officers, and more! Wounded Warriors Canada offers training in Trauma Resiliency, Core Trauma Concepts, Peer Support Fundamentals, and Before Operational Stress. The registered charity has provided over 330,000 hours of clinical treatment per year and has invested about $50 million dollars to their programs.
Beginning in 1941, the USO has been the nations leading organization to serve the US military and their families during their time in uniform. They offer around the clock hospitality to service members through a number of specialized programs. The USO is also known for their tours which send celebrities to entertain and convey the nations support of service members. In fact, there are over 250 centers in countries on each content which are operated by thousands of staff and volunteers. Check out the USO here for more details about the organization.
That's all of them for now. Be sure to check out the sites listed to support military veterans and their families whether they are gaming focused or not. And on behalf of Chalgyr's Game Room, have a good Veteran's Day/Remembrance Day.
Inspiring stuff, right? I mean, probably not in reality. It was just my
effort to get a Blogger (now Blogspot) blog post written before I lost interest (or more likely, lost my nerve to 'put myself out there'). Now, normally we don't post Sunday content, but hey - the date landed where it landed.
November 10th, 2009 is when I planted that
particular flag in the digital world to… well, I’d like to say great fanfare.
However, seriously I think my wife was the only one who saw that post at the
time. Maybe her aunt. Probably my dad. Tree falling in a forest when no one is
there to see it kind of stuff, right?
Again, it was just me writing for an audience of basically
me. I decided I just wanted to write my thoughts around games like no one was
reading them – because they weren’t. Except a funny thing started to happen. My
little blog started to get comments and joined several other similarly themed
gaming blogs in a sort of circle of sites where we read each other’s content,
supported one another, asked each other questions and frankly – we just helped
one another get better.
We started writing guest posts for one another, doing podcasts
with one another and in my case, writing reviews for other sites who seemed to
value my written words. I learned how to work with PR companies in the
background, saw my reviews start to show up on Metacritic through other sites
and most importantly – started to meet a lot of others who shared my passion
for video gaming and writing about it. This was what benefited CGR the most.
There was a lot of ‘me’ and “I’ in those first few
paragraphs, but Chalgyr’s Game Room only started with me – it grew with others
who started to join the team. It was a somewhat slow trickle early on, but as
more people began to write regularly for the site, a surprising thing started
to happen. Not only were we getting more content out, but we were getting more
readers as a result. We were also getting more people asking to participate.
What had begun as a solo passion project became a site that has seen dozens of
people come and go now over the last decade and a half as we have written
previews, reviews, random thoughts about gaming and more.
Video gaming has always been at the forefront of things, but
we’ve examined so much more than that. The team discussed game music, Games of
the Year, board games, music creation software, discussed tabletop roleplaying,
gaming hardware and so much more. Our third most popular article ever was one
written about Magic: The Gathering back in 2014.
Still, video game reviews have been what became the site’s
focus. So much so that when you view our review catalog here, if you scroll
down to the bottom of the page past the hundreds of linked reviews, you see we
have three more buckets of reviews at the bottom of the page. That’s a lot of words over
fifteen years. Quiz time: which review of ours has the most hits ever? TheElder Scrolls V: Skyrim – PC Review. This article went live on April 20, 2012
and has over 33.4 thousand views.
What has helped make Chalgyr’s Game Room such a special
place for me is how I just created a safe space to chat about what I enjoy
about gaming and found a lot of others who were already friends or became
friends who wanted to do the exact same thing. I don’t over-edit things and try
to create a ‘CGR voice’ – because everyone writing here has their own. I don’t
want to temper it down; I wanted to see it amplified. Sure, we all have our
various typos that get cleaned up, but we’ve never been interested in pushing
agendas. We love gaming, we just want to share those experiences with others
who also love gaming. We don’t always view things the same way – but that’s
fine. It’s expected even.
I want to take a moment to appreciate many of the cool things we've gotten to do on this site. Partnerships with big players in the industry allowed us to write about things (often times getting our hands on the game or product early), and providing us with opportunities we wouldn't have had otherwise. No money is being made by us if you click off to these sites, but when I first spun up that first blog post a decade and a half ago, I never imagined I'd be interacting with the companies that we have associated with since. Whether it was Wizards of the Coast and Hasbro sending us per-release Dungeons & Dragons tabletop supplies, Turtle Beach allowing us to review their headsets, Asmodee working with us on some table top game reviews, or big name publishers such as Microsoft, Koei Tecmo and Capcom to literally hundreds of smaller studies and indie developers that have brought their passions to digital life. It's been fantastic to be part of that journey.
We've had our reviews mentioned in accolade videos and images, had developers acknowledge our feedback in implementation of game improvements and graced numerous Steam pages over the years (as seen above).
It's not all flowers on these reviews, however. We've had more than our fair share of low scores given out over the years. We of course tend to lean towards games we think we'll enjoy, but since we like talking about gaming in general? We're willing to talk about some of the ones that didn't work for us as well. Heck, most of the time when we do our Games of the Year, we have multiple categories including our Biggest Disappointments. I don't want to dwell on these lower scores, because we generally want to celebrate having fun with gaming. We know a lot of work goes into these titles. But we have had our share of lower scores, such as PlataGo (which scored a 2 with our reviewer).
Chalgyr's Game Room is about the discourse. Sure, the majority of our articles are reviews, but it would be remiss of me not to bring up our Retro Reviews, Memorable Music, Jaggy's Corner, Gaming Thoughts, loads of News posts and so much more. We're a diverse team that love to talk about numerous aspects of a wide variety of games.
I’ve been asked before why the name Chalgyr’s Game Room
(CGR). It was a bit of a whim (keep in mind, I was writing for an audience of
me at the time). But some of my best memories involve the camaraderie and
competition of gaming over the decades, whether it was my friends as kids, or
as a father who played games with his wife and children. So, I wanted to make a
digital ‘game room’ where we could get together and share laughs, memories and more. This is why you see the couch in so many of our images - that throwback to the idea of couch co-op and just sitting around with friends with controllers in-hand.
I guess it only makes sense that CGR hit its stride when more people began to
participate, to fill that digital game room with their thoughts and feelings.
The amazing thing? The site’s just getting stronger. Here’s
a look at our page views over the last fifteen years. The last two years have
been particularly strong for us. With over 3.6 million unique lifetime views
and over 6 thousand comments? It’s clear we’ve found an audience. I made our
site’s tagline “Where it’s all about the games” – here I can say “It’s all
about the team”, past and current.
Over 5,600 posts later, Chalgyr’s Game Room is going stronger
than ever. Our best day ever? March 31, 2024 – so earlier this year with
171,709 views. I couldn’t have done it without a fantastic team, and we couldn’t
have done it without our amazing readers. Here’s to a great end of this year
for all of you, and to many more years of news, reviews and other gaming
thoughts to come.
York, UK - 31st October 2024 - Revolution Software is excited to confirm that the forthcoming release of long-celebrated adventure epic Broken Sword - Shadow of the Templars: Reforged on Nintendo Switch has now been confirmed for November 7th.
Broken Sword - Shadow of the Templars: Reforged made its debut on PC, PlayStation, and Xbox just x weeks ago and has already amassed praise from critics and gamers alike, with the game currently sitting with an enviable score of 84/100 on Metacritic.
Now Nintendo Switch owners will be able to join the party on November 7th, meaning fans will soon be able to take on George and Nico’s adventure of the streets of Paris in the Fall while, well, on the streets of Paris in the Fall!
As reviews to date attest, Broken Sword - Shadow of the Templars: Reforged represents a substantial enhancement of one of the most popular adventures of all time. The game stands as a completely revitalised and ‘reforged’ version of George and Nico’s original globe-trotting adventure, taking players from the atmospheric avenues of the French capital to the mystery-laden mountains of Syria, the sun-soaked coastline of Spain and a whole host of stunning locations in between.
Broken Sword - Shadow of the Templars: Reforged features backgrounds that have been repainted from the line art originally drawn by Don Bluth layout artists, as well as 30,000 redrawn and reanimated character sprites. The audio has also been enhanced to bring new levels of fidelity to the speech and the legendary soundtrack composed by the late great Barrington Pheloung.
Redefining adventure gameplay for the modern era, a new ‘story mode’ dynamically balances narrative and gameplay progression to offer a stunning gameplay experience for a whole new generation of adventure fans to enjoy.
“I am so excited to be able to bring Broken Sword - Shadow of the Templars: Reforged to Nintendo Switch,” says Charles Cecil, founder and CEO of Revolution Software. “The game looks so beautiful on the console, and can then be docked to play in stunning high resolution on TVs.”
Known for combining scripts laced with sharp wit and logical but challenging puzzles, Broken Sword is a celebrated franchise within the adventure genre, having first released on PC and PlayStation back in 1996. The original release became an instant classic, having sold half a million copies on PlayStation alone, and was voted one of the best PlayStation games ever by Official PlayStation Magazine readers. A re-released Director’s Cut of the original game went on to enjoy similar success 15 years later, amassing over 5 million downloads.
Broken Sword remains one of the genre’s most acclaimed series, featuring in top adventure game lists to this day.
In Broken Sword - Shadow of the Templars: Reforged, you can:
Step out onto the streets of Paris as American tourist George Stobbart finds himself embroiled in a mysterious journey of intrigue and jeopardy.
Enjoy a globe-spanning adventure, exploring exotic locations, solving ancient mysteries, and thwarting a dark conspiracy to reveal the secret truths of the Knights Templar.
Voyage through the game’s iconic locations illustrated in beautiful high definition on Nintendo Switch for the first time.
Listen to enhanced audio as Revolution delivers the finest, most stunning version of George and Nico’s original adventure to date.
Switch between the original 1996 version of the game and the new reforged visuals at the click of a button.
Play the game the way that you want to - choose between a ‘traditional mode’ for people who enjoy adventures the way they used to be, and a ‘story mode’ for those who want subtle hints to ensure they never get frustrated.
Broken Sword - Shadow of the Templars: Reforged launches digitally on Nintendo Switch on November 7th for €29.99/$29.99/£24.99. The game is also available on PlayStation 5, Xbox One, and Series X|S, and PC (Windows, macOS, and Linux) today for the same price.
About Revolution Software:
Founded in 1990, Revolution is a world-leading developer/publisher of narrative-driven adventure video games with titles such as the Broken Sword series, Beneath a Steel Sky and numerous major licences. The company is a pioneer of digital self-publishing.
Having achieved sales of over $100 million and been played by over 10 million players, Revolution’s Broken Sword series is one of the world's best-loved adventure series. In 2011, Broken Sword: Director’s Cut went to #1 on the Apple App Store in every major European territory and achieved 5 million downloads, with ‘Broken Sword’ becoming one of the world’s top 10 most tweeted keywords. The game still has a Metacritic rating of 91% (iPhone). Broken Sword 5: The Serpent’s Curse, which was successfully crowdfunded in 2012, built on this rich heritage.
The Metal Slug series has been around for a long time, and
despite its age, the titles tend to stand the test of time. They have a fun,
colorful visual style that ages gracefully, and the core run and gun mechanics
were so well done that most of the time? Signs of age are easy to overlook. Now
the series takes its signature visuals and style to a turn-based tactics game,
and in many ways Metal Slug Tactics feels like something from the past the past
and not a game just released this month. However, Metal Slug Tactics does so
many core things well enough that it’s still a good deal of fun today and will
appeal to fans of the series and strategy games alike.
Metal Slug Tactics is ambitious. Taking the core of a
long-running franchise and changing it to a completely new genre is often
unsuccessful. Right off of the bat, the presentation drips Metal Slug style.
Great use of color, the familiar but unique character design and rocking
soundtrack all come together beautifully. The graphics won’t win any awards for
pushing technical boundaries, but they’re an enjoyable pixel style that feels
true to the series. For a series built around pulse-pounding sound and action,
it’s surprising how well that feeling carries over to a turn-based tactics game
here.
That feeling of ‘action’ in a turn-based game is assisted by
more than just the graphics and audio, but also the gameplay. How? There’s some
interesting concepts baked in here that don’t reinvent the tactics wheel, so to
speak, but give Metal Slug Tactics a bit of a unique feel. For one, it’s got a
rogue-lite structure to repeated runs and lots of randomized elements. This
feels like a genre that’s been showing up in a lot of spaces, especially card
battlers and action games, so while at first blush I found it a little
off-putting, the elements felt rather at home here. You earn experience and
level up your characters, but it’s not a proper RPG. These are temporary improvements;
incredibly important to your success but bound to the particular run you are
on. Metal Slug Tactics also scratches that “Just one more run!” itch, due to
this rogue-lite structure that almost guarantees failure… and the urge to do it
better the next time around.
There is also this idea of more movement means higher chance
of avoiding attacks. In a lot of turn-based tactics game, I tend to be
conservative with my movement. Not here. The more movement the better,
actually. Another cool mechanic that makes the game feel like bullets are
flying everywhere (again, similar to the core series which has a heavy emphasis
on shots being fired from all directions) is the Sync Attack system. It’s a
mechanic that sees a target that puts a heavy focus on lining up a single target
in front of multiple characters. That means if you get a shot in from a
character to the left, and then you get a follow-up shot from the right, the
first character will get a second attack. This means you can pile up loads of
damage fast – but at the cost of taking out your opponents in a more balanced approach
that has its own risks. There is also a timer aspect to the stages that create
a sense of pressure, especially during boss fights where I often felt like I
had to press the action instead of stalling to look for openings.
That being said, there is clearly thought required here.
Leveraging the environment to cut down damage and using movement to improve
your dodging ability gives Metal Slug Tactics an almost puzzle-like feel
sometimes. There’s also a strong element of resource management as you have to
weigh ammo consumption into your attacks.
There is quite the learning curve here, it should be noted.
While most of the ideas here are ones I’ve seen in one form or another in prior
games, the way they’re rolled together here and given their own unique flavors
does make Metal Slug Tactics a bit slow to pick up. Add the aforementioned
rogue-lite approach that will almost certainly see you get beaten up once you
plug through the tutorial, and the potential for frustration is real. Also at
higher levels of difficulty? Metal Slug Tactics can be pretty unforgiving.
However, the more I played and the more I experienced the
trial and error (lots of error, but that’s probably a ‘me thing’), the more the
disparate systems started to come together and really reveal Metal Slug Tactics
for what it is. The variety of characters, weapons, stages and systems gel to
create a game that at times looks and sounds like the original Metal Slug
games, but the ‘Tactics’ part of the name really shines through when it all comes together.
Metal Slug Tactics is a great twist on the venerable, bombastic action
series. It looks and sounds the part, even as it tickles the brain with clever
mechanics and an almost puzzle-like atmosphere. I’ll admit I had my doubts
about the rogue-lite approach at first, but it was undeniably easy to pick it
up for just ‘one more match’ – always a good sign. Even if you’re not familiar
with the run and gun Metal Slug series, as long as you like tactics games, you
should enjoy this entry. However, the Metal Slug DNA here just makes the
overall package that much more entertaining for longtime fans such as myself.

This week we’re celebrating some of the finest vocalists ever to lend their voices. We hope these 5 tracks make you appreciate the games and the music that much more.
Shin Megami Tensei: Persona 4 Soundtrack | PS2 | Pursuing My True Self
Confession: I haven’t played a lick of the Persona games. I do, however, know my way through each game’s killer soundtrack. I love it when games take their soundtrack seriously and make it such a major part of their identity.
Shihoko Hirata has an amazing voice, and I’m so in love with the way she sings “obscurity” near the end.
Eugene Jarvis. Warren Spector. Ken Levine. Jane Jensen. There are some video game designers that I’m an eternal fan of. Gray Matter is a point and click game helmed by the latter - one of the best in the business.
Sung by the real-world band, The Scarlet Furies, this theme is a modern great. The point and click genre is notable for producing excellent music, and Sam’s Theme is up there among the greats.
“Go Tell Aunt Rhody” is an actual folk song from the 18th Century which sings about the death… of a goose. The version that appears in the game is sung by Jordan Reyne, who has such a fantastic punk voice. The lyrics are altered too, including seamlessly replacing “the old, gray goose is dead” with “everybody’s dead”.
You may disagree, but I find folk/traditional songs to be slightly off-kilter. Even nursery rhymes, especially after finding out what “Ring a Ring o' Roses” is all about actually. These songs have the tendency to make any piece of media that much more creepy.
Don’t believe me? Ever heard of “One, Two, Freddy’s coming for you!”
If push comes to a shove, I’ll select this song as my top favorite from the Persona games. Sung beautifully by Lyn Inaizumi, there’s a lot of emotions and feelings on display here.
I highly recommend listening to the instrumental and the percussion-less rain version as well. Preferably back to back.

28 October 2024 | Australian dev team MAXART Games and Polish indie publisher Untold Tales have announced they will be teaming up to release Servonauts on PC and Switch.
Servonauts is an absurd couch co-op gas station builder for 1-4 players. Team up as a group of disposable galactic blue-collar employees and build up a servo (that’s Aussie for "gas station") in some rather questionable locations. As impatient space travellers demand service, you’ll set up refineries, wrangle wobbly pipes, and mix the right fuels to avoid blowing your customers into stardust.
GAME FEATURES
Build a Station and Pipeline
To fuel cars, you’ll need Astroil’s patent-pending pipe technology! These wobbly, physically-simulated pipes can bend and stretch to get fuel where you need it. They’re even partially lava-resistant (unlike the Servonauts)!
Refine the Right Fuels
When cars pull into your servo, they’ll request specific types of fuel. Build machines to refine and combine fuels to create advanced recipes! But be careful—pumping the wrong fuel can have explosive consequences.
Up to Four-Player Co-op
Play in single-player with in-game support, or grab your mates to jam it out as a duo, trio, or chaotic four-player quartet. Work with your team and optimize your logistics as you aim to collect all three gold stars.
Steam supports local couch co-op and online play via Steam Remote Play, while the Switch supports local couch co-op.
