Ruffy and the Riverside (PC) Review

Ruffy and the Riverside caught my attention as soon as it was announced. The Paper Mario-esque character design, along with the classic Collect-a-thon style gameplay, stood out from other Indie games that have attempted the same idea. Ruffy and the Riverside has…

Warhammer Age of Sigmar: Storm Ground (PC) Review

In the interest of full transparency, I know basically nothing about any of the various Warhammer universes. I would have had no idea that the Warhammer 40,000 universe is separate from the Age of Sigmar universe if I hadn’t done a bit…

F1 25 (PC) – Review

Another year, another year of toxic fandoms bickering about which of the millionaire twinks, Lance Stroll, and the Zaddy will match with them on Grindr. It must be time for F1! F1 25 brings a few new additions to this year’s release…

Camper Van: Make it Home (PC) – Review

Why do wholesome, lovely games do this to me? First Unpacking sent me to weird places because I decided to listen to my own music, and now we have Malapata Studio’s Camper Van: Make it Home. I originally saw this one last November…

Date Everything! (PC) Review

Dating simulators are a fun way to enhance the connection between you and some pixels on a screen. They’re not for everyone, but they sure do know their target audience, tempting players with multiple endings and a variety of personalities/potential suitors. So…

Dragon is Dead (PC) Review

I love Rogue-likes that try something different or explore a different vibe. So, when I saw the Steam Page for Dragon is Dead, I was intrigued. A Rogue-like evoking Diablo II’s loot system with an art style similar to Blasphemous? It had…

Monster Train 2 (PC) Review

Trying to knock out some of my review backlog is a challenge this time of year. As we get closer to Summer Game Fest, the importance of clearing things out so I’m not juggling deadlines along with conference coverage gets higher and…

StarVaders (PC) Review

For the past few weeks, I’ve been deep in a few RPGs. I went directly from Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 (my GOTY so far) to Trails Through Daybreak II, along with the new DLC for Sea of Stars, “Throes of the Watchmaker.”…

Sea of Stars – Throes of the Watchmaker DLC (PC) Review

Admittedly, I was a little behind on playing Sea of Stars. It came out in August 2023, right around the time I was dealing with a health issue, and right before the death of my mother in October of that year. However,…

Deliver At All Costs (PC) – Review

Back when you could click your fingers, do finger guns, and say “Daddio” without getting funny looks. Ah, the late 1950s, such a horrible time for half the population. Set deep in Americana, the island town of St Monique is a somewhat…
