GrimGrimoire OnceMore (Switch) Review

Vanillaware is one of the few development teams that I feel consistently gets overlooked for being niche or strange. Granted, every one of their games tends to have some experimental element involved, but they all have great storylines and fantastic visual design.…

Dead Island 2 (Xbox Series X|S) Review

How strange it is to be here. I remember sitting in my college dorm, watching E3 conference streams with my roommates, and seeing the initial announcement trailer for Dead Island 2. It was a silly little trailer that left us all interested…

Out of the Park Baseball 24 (PC) Review

There’s not much to complain about if you’re a fan of baseball and franchise management sims. While some sports games are hit or miss year after year, Out of the Park Baseball is an absolute gem that continues to improve year after year.…

Star Trek: Lower Decks “First First Contact” Review

You know how it is, blue people are always a trap for pansexuals. Look at Mystique, Gonzo, and Sully. Blue women with grey hair though, that’s a pansexual’s kryptonite. The only thing “worse” is buff blue women with grey hair in summer…

God of Rock (PS4) Review

Genre-blending in gaming can either massively pay off or turn out to be a heavy-handed experience favoring one genre over the other and leaving out the fun. You’ll see many FPS games add RTS gameplay like Sanctum. However, other ideas, like the…

Beyond The Long Night (PC) Review

The standard in a roguelike game is that you’re dashing and slashing on the ground and you can get airborne with a few jumps. What if you could fly around the room with no floor to even think about? This unique presentation…

Bayonetta Origins: Cereza and the Lost Demon (Switch) Review

I’ve been a fan of the Bayonetta franchise from the very beginning. Bayonetta 3 was an interesting shift for the franchise, but it is clear that the series is in an experimental phase moving forward. Bayonetta Origins: Cereza and the Lost Demon…

The Great War: Western Front (PC) – Review

That poor old Ostrich, the fella never had a chance once Archie Duke got hungry, and thus the powder keg that was Europe erupted. Anyway, that’s enough about history, I’ll get onto Henry the 8th and his six knives if I keep…

Star Trek: Lower Decks “wej Duj” – Review

Really, we’re doing Riverdale with Star Trek, that’s what we’re doing now? This has little to do with “wej Duj,” I’m only just getting to the point in my advanced schedule to talk about Star Trek: Starfleet Academy, a vain attempt by CBS/Paramount to make young people like Star…
