Robinson Crusoe: Adventure on the Cursed Island

3 March, 2013 Kai Reviews

Beign shipwrecked is bad. Being shipwrecked on a deserted island is worse. Being shipwrecked on the Cursed Island? That sounds like trouble. Enough trouble, actually, that we should all work together. And here we are in Robinson Crusoe: Adventure on the Cursed Island, a cooperative adventure game.

  • Pandemic: On The Brink

    Is fighting the same old diseases getting boring? Saving mankind is just another job for you, and you’re looking for a new challenge? Better get your doctor’s bag ready and your syringe disinfected, because humanity is on the brink of destruction, threatened by virulent diseases, mutation and terrorism.

  • La Boca

    The game La Boca takes its name from the neighborhood La Boca in Buenos Aires, Argentina, a uniquely colorful place. Just as uniquely, the game La Boca is a puzzle game with strong player interaction, and that makes it a lot of fun to play.

  • Loch Ness

    Fog still lies over the Loch, the early morning was silent a minute ago. Now, the silence is disturbed by a stampede of photographers, running around the lake, setting up their cameras. Because, once more, Nessie has been spotted, and all the papers want the best photos.

  • Smash Up: The Obligatory Cthulhu Set

    For a game as mired in pop culture as Smash Up, it was unavoidable that the internets favorite Old One would have an appearance at some point. But is The Obligatory Chulhu Set as great as the Old One himself, or will it cause your descent into madness?

  • Checkpoint Charlie

    The 1960s are upon us. Beatlemania. Marilyn Monroe. Breakfast at Tiffanys.
    In Berlin, however, a wall not only divides two cities – it separates worlds. Nowhere on the planet are the two superpowers closer, their differences more visible. Beneath the surface, however, it is the similarities which are equally striking. Checkpoint Charlie was one of the few checkpoints between West and East Berlin, heavily guarded and watched. It was also the central checkpoint through which Spies passed from one sector to the other. Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to sniff around for the Chief of Spies trying to make it through Checkpoint Charlie undetected. And you can take the sniffing quite literally, as each player assumes the role of a dog, representing the K-9 division.

  • Pandemic: The Cure

    With the amazing, ongoing success of cooperative game Pandemic, it’s no surprise that there are not only a number of expansions but also a few spin-off games with a similar theme and sharing the name. Pandemic: The Cure is one such game, it recreates the classic Pandemic as a dice game: lighter and faster but with all the original’s elements still there.

  • al-Rashid

    The empire of Caliph Harun al-Rashid was one of the biggest and most advanced of its time. Exactly the place for you to make a name, and loads of money, for yourself. But be careful, being successful and having friends were not easily compatible even back in the days of Arabian Nights.
