Roots of Yggdrasil Announced for 2023

To the Stars Gets 2023 Release Window

I tend to keep Rogue-like games on my radar as I find out about them. After playing Slay the Spire and Castle Morihisa, I extend this to Rogue-like Deck builders too. We often see Deck builders that are in the fantasy genre,…

Kiryu and Yagami Should be a Model for Good Male Protagonists

Male characters in video games tend to fall into a few categories these days. You have the macho type, the shy type, the reluctant protagonist type, and then you have the womanizer type. The Yakuza franchise, however, breaks convention in a lot…

Neon Abyss Cornucopia Update Comes to Consoles and PC
