Ooblets (Switch) Review
I grew up playing a lot of Pokemon games. As such, the Monster-Catching genre has always appealed to me. In that same vein, I spent a lot of time in my youth watching my mom play farming sims like Harvest Moon. When…

Beacon Pines (Switch) Review
Sometimes what you see, isn’t always what you get. Beacon Pines caught me by surprise in this very way. However, sometimes getting something different than what you thought you were getting isn’t a bad thing. Beacon Pines defied my expectations, and in…
Gerda: A Flame in Winter (Switch) Review
It isn’t often that I find myself playing games set during World War II. This is mostly because I am not interested in games that glorify the violence of the period, like certain large franchises that I won’t name. I also tend…
Wayward Strand (Switch) Review
Sometimes when I get a look at a trailer for a game, I think it is going to be more compelling to me than it is. It isn’t necessarily the fault of the game itself that my expectations were different, but it…

Hokko Life (Switch) Review
I covered Hokko Life back in June of 2021 when it launched in Early Access. Upon its announcement, and since that preview, I’ve been curious to see how the game would shape up as it neared a 1.0 release. Now that Hokko…
Cursed to Golf (Switch) Review
Golf is one of the few sports that I actually enjoy in video games. I can’t stand watching real Golf, but something about playing Golf in games is just way too much fun. Cursed to Golf combines Roguelike procedural generation with Golf…
Coromon (Switch) Review
In recent years, the monster-catching genre of games has only grown more prevalent. Pokemon and Digimon set the bar high for a lot of people, and indie developers have consistently tried to capture the magic of those two franchises, to varying degrees…
