Lower Decks “Caves” – Review

Oh great, another trapped in a cave mission of Lower Decks. How could they make this one seem original? In the final episode of Megan Lloyd’s run this season as director, we’ve got Ben Rodgers’ “Caves.” Rodgers is the story editor and writer…

Comic Book Corner: Head Lopper Vol. 4

Lower Decks “A Few Badgeys More” – Review

Rule 34 of the Rules of Acquisition, war is good for business. Of course, rule 35 of the Rules of Acquisition is: Peace is good for business. Directed by Bob Suarez, returning from “Something Borrowed, Something Green,” as well as other episodes…

Let’s School (PC) – Review

While Two Point Campus is lovely in that comedic vein Theme Hospital had, I think Let’s School fits my aspirations better. I don’t want to ruin someone’s life at the end of their educational career. I want to do it as early as I possibly can! Being…

I have loved the Prince of Persia franchise ever since I played The Sands of Time back in 2003 on the Nintendo GameCube. Something about the world, the time mechanics, and the platforming in the original captivated me, and I have been…
