Lost Records: Bloom and Rage Part 1 (PC) Review

DONTNOD has had quite the decade since Life is Strange first started dropping episodes in 2015. I’m someone who’s been there from the start, playing episodes the day they came out, loving Life is Strange 2 to the point I awarded a rare 10/10,…

Eureka “Before I Forget” – Review

If we’re fair, Eureka has never had fantastic direction, and Michael Robison is no exception. Directing 11 episodes of Eureka, as well as 1 episode of XIII: The Series, Robison’s latest work is mostly Hallmark Channel flicks. The story for this episode…

Potion Permit (PC) Review

I’ve found myself reviewing a fair few games as of late that center around crafting potions and/or proving yourself to people who doubt your abilities. Potion Permit rather expertly combines both of these ideas into its central theme. The end result of…

Captain America: Brave New World Review

When Captain America: Brave New World was announced, I was rather excited. Having Anthony Mackie’s Sam take the mantle of Captain America following the events of Avengers: Endgame and Falcon & The Winter Soldier, seemed like the logical next step. As the…

Tomb Raider IV-VI Remastered (PC) – Review

I’m glad everyone’s up to date on what is and isn’t Roman, so I don’t need to explain what IV, V, and VI are to Americans anymore. Continuing on from where Aspyr left off with the Tomb Raider remasters last year, we…

Flint: Treasure of Oblivion (PC) – Review

As the Sweet Transvestite sang, “And when you’re a professional pirate…” Set in the golden age of piracy (minus the bay of the internet), Flint: Treasure of Oblivion plays as a prequel to Scottish writer Robert Louis Stevenson’s seminal work and character,…

Eureka “Many Happy Returns” – Review

That’s a walking red flag, and I’m sticking by that no matter what. Directed by Jefery Levy, “Many Happy Returns” is the first of his two outings as director; the second being in episode 7, “Blink.” Written by show creators Cosby and…
