Young Souls (Switch) Review

There are some games that try to mash the best parts of other genres together. Sometimes they succeed and sometimes they don’t. Young Souls succeeds in some areas but fails in others. It has some great ideas, but also some frustrating elements.…

The Cruel King and the Great Hero (Switch) Review

I’ve been a fan of NIS America’s work for a very long time. Most people know them for their large tactical RPGs, games like the Disgaea franchise, or things such as Phantom Brave. However, every so often NIS America (or rather, Nippon…
