Cheap and Dirty Gamer: Paladog Proves Hippies are Worthless in Battle

Cheap and Dirty Gamer: Paladog Proves Hippies are Worthless in Battle 

What would happen to the animal kingdom if the human population suddenly vanished? Many think that the Earth would be better off without us pooping pollution and bullets all over the place, but those people tend to wear clothing made of hemp and rarely shower. While long periods of peace and environmental cleanliness seem beneficial to [...]

Cheap and Dirty Gamer: Shank You for Getting to the Point

Cheap and Dirty Gamer: Shank You for Getting to the Point 

Shank may not have had the most engaging storyline in gaming nor was it the most varied brawler, but sometimes narrative depth and endless variety gets in the way of what’s really important. Should you be caught up in a situation where someone needs their head beat in or removed entirely, I’m pretty sure you’d be more concerned with fueling up [...]

Cheap and Dirty Gamer: Infectonator 2, An Indirect PSA on Hand Washing

Cheap and Dirty Gamer: Infectonator 2, An Indirect PSA on Hand Washing 

Being a sequel can be pretty tough, especially when you happen to be the second installment of MY favorite browser game of all time. Toge Productions could have broken under the pressure, but fortunately they did not. I’m happy to report that Infectonator 2 not only brings back the incredibly addicting zombie contagion themed antics of the [...]

Cheap and Dirty Gamer: Super Villainy and Its Lustful Upgrades

Cheap and Dirty Gamer: Super Villainy and Its Lustful Upgrades 

I’m not going to attempt to describe Super Villainy as a complicated game because it isn’t, but for one reason or another I found myself locked to my computer screen playing it despite my AAA backlog. What I realized is that Super Villainy scratched an itch that I’d like to think I don’t possess but [...]

Cheap and Dirty Gamer: Monsters’ Den Chronicles is Full of Awesome Parties

Cheap and Dirty Gamer: Monsters’ Den Chronicles is Full of Awesome Parties 

Most everyone loves parties and those that don’t probably still do but they have to claim they don’t in order to maintain their cold exterior (the latter tend to need talking animals or friendly young troublemakers to warm their hearts but both are in short demand in this economy). When it comes to a party, [...]

Cheap and Dirty Gamer: Gun Bros are the Best Bros

Cheap and Dirty Gamer: Gun Bros are the Best Bros 

People roll their eyes at me on a regular basis but never do I get as poor of a reaction from folks as when I use the word bro. Most assume that I’m either a frat boy or a surfer but the fact of the matter is, me calling someone a bro is like me saying “I’d have your back [...]

Cheap and Dirty Gamer: All Zombies Must Die! This Time I Mean It

Cheap and Dirty Gamer: All Zombies Must Die! This Time I Mean It 

Cheap and Dirty Gamer is taking a small break from being “crazy cheap” and to head more in the direction of “pretty cheap” to bring you a very important message about zombies. All Zombies Must Die! Seriously. It’s pretty convenient that my important message also happens to be the name of this week’s game, but such a coincidental occurrence [...]

Cheap and Dirty Gamer: Monsters TD Must Stand for Tragic Destruction

Cheap and Dirty Gamer: Monsters TD Must Stand for Tragic Destruction 

I wouldn’t go as far to say that I have a PhD in the field of tower defense games, but if the History channel ever did a special on the genre, I’d most likely be interviewed sitting in front of an ornate bookshelf (I’d have to borrow the books and bookshelf, of course). However, throughout the [...]

Cheap and Dirty Gamer: Wizorb Goes Balls Deep into Badass Territory

Cheap and Dirty Gamer: Wizorb Goes Balls Deep into Badass Territory 

When I think wizards, I think about Gandalf the Grey going balls to the wall against a Balrog in hopes of protecting his fellow adventurers. I also think about the time that Gandalf the White (same bro, more magical) stormed down a mountain as some jerk-off monsters attempted to overrun Helm’s Deep. Essentially, when I think about wizards, I think [...]

Cheap and Dirty Gamer: New York Shark, Crazy Killing Machine Shark or Medicine Man Shark?

Cheap and Dirty Gamer: New York Shark, Crazy Killing Machine Shark or Medicine Man Shark? 

Sharks don’t respect humanity or any of the amazing things that humans have created over the years since they decided to stop being monkeys and start acting civilized. Sharks have been around much longer, but have yet to develop anything resembling emotions nor have they pursued creative outlets of any kind. They are here on this [...]

Cheap and Dirty Gamer: Corril Slayer Brings the Creepy to Side Scrolling

Cheap and Dirty Gamer: Corril Slayer Brings the Creepy to Side Scrolling 

I never imagined that a 2D side scroller could freak me out. There’s really not a whole lot one can do graphically to convey horror due to a limited color palette and a plane of view that doesn’t leave much room for creepy creatures to hide. Playing Corril Slayer has changed my view on the potential [...]

Cheap and Dirty Gamer: Mr. Bree: Returning Home Traps Talking Pigs

Cheap and Dirty Gamer: Mr. Bree: Returning Home Traps Talking Pigs 

Being both cheap and dirty is pretty easy after a Wednesday afternoon filled with beers has you lying in bed cursing both hops and barley. If you’re like me and happen to be in that aforementioned situation, your brain probably isn’t in the mood for complex actions like solving mystery puzzles or negotiating with elven [...]

Cheap and Dirty Gamer: Snuggle Truck Needs Drivers to Ensure Safety of Cuddly Critters

Cheap and Dirty Gamer: Snuggle Truck Needs Drivers to Ensure Safety of Cuddly Critters 

In addition to my expertise in video games, horror themed survival scenarios and dancing like no one is watching, I’m also a fifth degree black belt in snuggling. This may sound like a skill set that deals in cute 24/7, but I’m here to tell you that, as one of the foremost experts on the subject, I’m privy [...]

Cheap and Dirty Gamer: The Several Journeys of Reemus or Medieval Extermination Adventures

Cheap and Dirty Gamer: The Several Journeys of Reemus or Medieval Extermination Adventures 

Point and click adventure games have a special place in my heart being that my introduction to PC gaming was the result of getting King’s Quest IV for Christmas back in the days before girls were more interesting than Legos. Unfortunately, the genre tends to get overlooked by the fiery-blooded youth of today’s gaming world. [...]

Cheap and Dirty Gamer: Elona Shooter Offers Revenge on Crazed Farm Animals

Cheap and Dirty Gamer: Elona Shooter Offers Revenge on Crazed Farm Animals 

During my imaginary childhood, I lived in a tiny house that was constantly under attack from a who’s who of farm animals that had wandered over from across the road. The sheep head butted my walls, the chickens threw eggs at my windows and a strange race of bipedal mice sprinted towards me while brandishing their [...]
