Book of Hours (PC) Review

I’ll admit, while I like Weather Factory’s Cultist Simulator, I always felt like it was a bit too smart for me. I never quite managed to wrangle the time-management aspects mixed with the myriad of things that I needed to juggle. However,…

Vinland Saga (Anime) Review

I’d like to start doing more Anime reviews but given the amount of shows on my to-watch list that may or may not occur. Nonetheless, I wanted to take some time to discuss one of the more recent shows to air this…

Virgo Versus the Zodiac (PS5) Review

Over the years I have played a lot of RPGs. I specifically love checking out Indie RPGs because they often take concepts I love from classics and turn them on their head. Years ago, I first saw Virgo Versus the Zodiac when…

Sea of Stars (PC) Review

Since it was announced in 2020, I’ve been fawning over Sabotage Studio’s Sea of Stars for simply how beautiful it is. It is a strange thing to say given the studio’s previous title, The Messenger, didn’t light a fire under me. Also, to…

SNW “The Elysian Kingdom” – Review

Storytime, now where were we? I oddly admire Akela Cooper, Benny Russell, & Onitra Johnson’s “The Elysian Kingdom.” It is as camp as Brian Blessed marching down the street clad only in a big trans-pride flag shouting obscenities at those saying pride…

Fort Solis (PS5) Review

If a game even remotely reminds me of Dead Space, I will have an urge to play it. There’s just something about feeling claustrophobic and on edge in the stars that captivates me. Fort Solis brings about that appeal from even a glancing look.…

Stray (Xbox Series X) Review

Launched initially as a PlayStation exclusive, Annapurna Interactive’s Stray took a simple premise and ran with it. In a post-apocalyptic world, what happens to the animals we love? In the case of one orange cat central to the game, the answer is that…

Marble It Up! Ultra (PC) Review

While we are still waiting with bated breath for an announcement for a new Super Monkey Ball game, the creators of Marble It Up! have decided to give SEGA a run for their money by coming out with an all-new game. This…
