People of Note (PC) Review

Annapurna Interactive is one of those studios that develops and publishes some of the most fascinating games in recent memory. While their latest offering, Mixtape, has caught the eyes and ire of many, there is one game that came out right before…

Ugly Betty “Grin and Bear It” – Review

“Oh please, Ugly Willy, you’re my only hope.” I think Bradford said that before the blue pill. Directing his only episode of Ugly Betty, Tucker Gates is a weird one to pin down as he does lots of 2000s shows like Alias,…

Lego Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight (PC) Review

I have loved the Lego games for a long time. I’ve played almost all of them, too, with all of the Lego Batman and Lego DC games being high on my list of favorites. TT Games has hit it out of the…

I love Metroidvania games a lot. I find myself wishlisting a lot of them when I see them pop up either in my inbox or on my Steam recommendations list. As such, Clockwork Ambrosia was on my radar before its release date.…

Ugly Betty “Family/Affair” – Review

If I had breasts like that, I’d be playing with them all night, too. Directed by Victor Nelli Jr, this is Nelli the Elephant’s second of sixteen episodes of Ugly Betty, after six episodes of Scrubs, and would go on to direct…

Directive 8020 (PC) Review

Of all the games that I have been pining for over the last year, Directive 8020 has been near the top of the list consistently. Another horror choose your own adventure game from Supermassive Games, the masterminds behind The Dark Pictures Anthology…
