Kirby and the Forgotten Land (Switch) Review

I haven’t played a lot of the Kirby games in my time, mostly some older ones like Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards or the game that started it all, Kirby’s Dreamland. However, when Kirby and the Forgotten Land was announced in September…

Doctor Who “The Zygon Invasion” & “The Zygon Inversion” – Review

No more, please, no more. As much as I love and cherish sections of the story of “The Zygon Invasion” & “The Zygon Inversion,” I can’t take any more of the Zygon stories. Knowing my luck, by the time this is out…

Revita (Switch) Review

I love a good Roguelike, but it isn’t a shock to say that the market is a little over-saturated. Because of that, I’m always on the lookout for Roguelike games that stand out. Developer BenStar’s Revita stood out to me for various…

Tokyo Dreaming (Book) – Review

The sometimes fabulous, sometimes embarrassing, and often dramatic life of Her Imperial Highness Princess Izumi Tanaka is a story that formed in Emiko Jean’s Tokyo Ever After. I quite enjoyed the first book in what is officially a series with the upcoming…

Doctor Who “Legend of the Sea Devils” – Review

Twice this week I’ve had the simple concept of lesbians shouted at me in the most ham-fisted way possible. The other occasion was HBO’s Julia, because the concept of someone menopausal in 1963 also being uncomfortable having a relationship with anyone that’s…

Grand Mountain Adventure: Wonderland (PC) – Review

Sliding backward down a mountain, often at speed, peppering in “tricks,” all under the guise of being relaxing, is insane. I’ve previously stated that I find snowboarding, skiing, and other extreme winter sports, to be an exercise in getting yourself killed by…

Serious Sam: Tormental (PC) Review

If there’s one genre that’s been done to death, it’s the roguelike. Ever since Binding of Isaac took off as a premier indie darling in 2011, many others have emulated its success with brilliant ideas, airtight combat, and a pulse-pounding sense of urgency to…

Moon Knight “The Friendly Type” Review

Marvel’s Moon Knight is back again for its third episode and brings its best foot forward. This has been the best episode yet, keeping the air of mystery while slowly peeling back the layers revealing something deeper. However, Moon Knight just can’t escape…
