Game Mill released 5 games so far this year:

  • Avatar The Last Airbender - Quest For Balance
  • Skull Island: Rise Of Kong
  • Dreamworks All-Star Kart Racing
  • Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl 2
  • The Walking Dead: Destinies

3 of which have been received poorly (Avatar, Rise of Kong and Walking Dead), the other two apparently got a mixed reception, but still reek of shovelware,

Make no mistake, Game Mill is a publisher notorious for pushing out crap shovelware titles. The infamous 2003 game "Big Rigs" was also their doing. Anything they release, should be avoided.

How many absolute crap games is this now for this publisher this year? Three? It’s got to be some kind of money laundering scam, right?

Personally I think it is an organisation checking if you can make money by making low quality shovelware, you always gain something if you can lose anything.
