Castlevania Dominus Collection (PC) Review

It is safe to say that the Castlevania franchise is a series that has marked the gaming industry in a way that has had ripples throughout almost every genre. Konami has been doing a great job of preserving the history of the…

Star Trek: Picard “Seventeen Seconds” – Review

With Frakes at the helm, you knew that “Seventeen Seconds” was going to be 17 seconds because he’s the type of person to take these things seriously. Directed by the serial leg-cocker himself, “Seventeen Seconds” had to be the early emotional heart…

Golden Lap (PC) – Review

The age of cigarettes and cigars clouding the paddock, champagne being more than sparkling water at some races, and just before James Hunt would come and shag everything with legs. The “golden” age of F1 is something some fans fawn over to…

Hero of the Hive Announced for Steam

As many people know, Bees (specifically honeybees) are vital for a variety of ecosystems and purposes. A few developers have already taken on the challenge of reminding people of this fact through gaming, including games like Apico. Now, a new game is…

Squirrel with a Gun (PC) Review

Goat Simulator was my first foray into the “Absurd Sandbox” genre, as I call it. Since then, I’ve played things like Just Die Already, and cuter offerings like Little Kitty, Big City. Now, a new contender has arrived, a nutty one you…
