Songbird Symphony (PC) Review

As The Trashmen famously (or perhaps infamously) sang, “Everybody knows that the (song)bird is the word.” If that’s the case, I guess one might consider a large group of songbirds to be a symphony. 2019’s Songbird Symphony, developed by Joysteak Studios and…

Scott Pilgrim Takes Off Season One Review

Scott Pilgrim vs. The World is certainly one of my favorite films of all time. It’s got a great cast, is a solid adaptation, and is directed by probably my favorite director Edgar Wright. I was pleasantly surprised this year when a…

The Talos Principle II (PC) Review

The Talos Principle is by far one of the most brain-melting First-Person puzzle games I’ve ever played. Not out of its puzzle difficulty, though it does have some difficult puzzles, but out of the philosophical and psychological topics it covers. What makes…

Blood West (PC) Review

I’m not typically a fan of hard games. After a long day of work, I want to unwind and turn my brain off, so I’m averse to the idea of enduring more struggle. This was unavoidable for me when I was roped…
