Doctor Who “Eve of the Daleks” – Review

Happy New Queer! Wait, I don’t think I’m allowed to reference The Thick of It too much, at least when it is Jodie’s Who and not Peter’s. Anyway, that was a completely “meh” episode, currently being held up as if it were the messiah (He’s a…

Date Night Bowling (Switch) Review

I love a good bit of bowling every now and again, but a lot of games get a little too technical with it. I also happen to love games that are a little quirky or different in practice. Date Night Bowling brings…

Beyond a Steel Sky (Switch) Review

I love a good mystery, and I love a good Point-and-Click adventure. Beyond a Steel Sky hits both of those boxes and scratches a really particular itch for me. It is more than just a story-driven mystery title, it has a unique…

The Witcher Season 2 (Netflix) Review

Dead Space Series (PC) Review

Several series of games over the years have gone by the wayside, left as a relic to a different era of gaming. While Jak & Daxter and Crash Bandicoot saw their developers reach different heights in new ventures, EA Redwood Shores, which developed into Visceral…

Asterix & Obelix: Slap them All! (Switch) Review

Brawlers are a unique genre. There’s not much else that can feel as equally welcoming and unforgiving as them. It’s a type of game that benefits from pushing the envelope, taking a simple concept, and stretching just how far it can go.…

Evil Genius 2 (Xbox One) – Review

The year was 2004, and while Pierce Brosnan was trying to rip the clothes off of Halle Berry two years before, the years of Thunderball‘s eye-patched villain Emilio Largo was gone. Instead, those cartoonish villains were reduced to a cinder by the likes…
