Turbo Overkill (PC) Review
When you can start a review by saying the game made you feel like the phrase “[expletive] you, the horse you rode in on, and all that came with you!” I think it might be giving the carrot before the stick. I…

SNW “Lift Us Where Suffering Cannot Reach” – Review
This is the first Strange New Worlds episode with two returning writers, Bill Wolkoff of “Ghosts of Illyria,” and Robin Wasserman with “Spock Amok.” The two are joined by Arrowverse director Andi Armaganian, who also did some work with Discovery, but those are seasons 4…
Dave the Diver (PC) Review
Sometimes a game will sneak up on the Indie gaming scene and take it by storm. Vampire Survivors was the last one back in 2022, but recently Dave the Diver has been all over my social media feeds and my Steam front…
Sclash (PC) Review
When I first saw the trailer for Sclash, I was given a warning by one of my co-workers that this game was intended to be extremely difficult. The exact quote that my co-worker gave was from the store page stating “Sclash is…

Venba (PC) Review
Food is a part of any culture. What people eat, how they cook, and how they share their recipes is something that can be unique between cultures, and even between families within a culture. From the moment I saw a trailer for…
Mission Impossible: Dead Reckoning Part 1 (Film) Review
Mission Impossible is one of those rare franchises that has actually managed to improve through subsequent entries. The first film, while certainly not bad was nonetheless quite flawed, with an especially confusing plot that made the action less meaningful. Later entries managed…
SNW “Spock Amok” – Review
Think of an awkward comedian, like David O’Doherty. Now spread that out like nails on a chalkboard for an hour. Only then do I think you’ve got Henry Alonso Myers & Robin Wasserman’s “Spock Amok.” Directed by Rachel Leiterman, the mostly second…
