There’s a new king in town…

And his name is Mario. After twelve years sitting atop the throne of Best Reviewed Game Ever, the crown has passed to Super Mario Galaxy 2. We'll keep an eye on this, as reviews are still coming in and the score is still fluctuating.

Cancel your Sadness

Long troubled Wiiware game Sadness is more or less completely dead. The composer of the game, Arkaduisz Reikowski, has released the soundtrack of the game, as he feels the project would go nowhere further. N-Europe recently had an interview with Adam Artur Antolski, a former Nibris employee who was the script-writer for Sadness, which show that the game was far behind a presentable state and that Nibris may not have ever even had a Wii devkit.

Sadness was a psychological horror game made entirely in black and white. The plot was to touch on narcolepsy, nyctophobia, and paranoid schizophrenia and was set in 20th century Russia. The story  followed Maria Lengel who arrived in city of Lviv, which would transformed and covered in gore by moonlight. The gameplay was "extremely innovative", with the player having "absolute control over the heroine - be[ing] able to use any kind of item as a weapon, due to the lack of guns" and  "as realistic as possible, like you could for example break a bottle and use the pieces of glass like a knife, or a chair leg like a bat. If you were going to grab some person from behind, you would 'catch' him using the Nunchuck and cut his throat using the Wii Remote." Originally announced before the Revolution was the Wii, the Sadness homepage has since expired and is no longer updated. The music to be used in Sadness can be heard at Reikowski's blog.
