Sagebrush Review
Platforms: Mac, Playstation 4, Switch, Windows, and Xbox One (reviewed) Tackling cults isn’t really something done in video games beyond “hey, there’s this cult and they’re out to kill you, so kill them first.” You get occasional things like The Church in the Darkness that deals with infiltrating a cult to get someone out, but […]
Estiman Review
Platforms: Microsoft Windows, Nintendo Switch (reviewed), Android, iOS Sometimes I need a game to act as a palette cleanser. I just recently spent nearly 75 hours playing through Assassin’s Creed Odyssey and I haven’t been ready to jump into another big, story-driven game just yet. So I’ve been looking for more relaxing and bite-sized gaming […]
Concrete Genie Review
Platforms: PlayStation 4 I’ve always had a great love and deep appreciation for art of all forms. Drawing and doodling have been some of my favorite hobbies for years, and when I was in grade school, I was quite the artist. Sadly, I never honed or improved those skills, and to this day, I still […]
A Short Hike Review
Platforms: Microsoft Windows, Linux, macOS (Steam/Itch.io) Memory is strange. There were moments in my life, as I’m sure there were in yours, that I now wish had lasted forever. There are conversations, situations, and places that I would like to relive again and again. At the time, in the moment, I may not have thought […]
River City Girls Review
Platforms: Playstation 4, Switch, Windows, Xbox One (reviewed) The River City (otherwise known as Kunio-kun) franchise is one that’s been around for over 30 years and has never really had that breakout hit that gets it to stick in the heads of the masses. Its lineage has been a bit confusing. My entry point was […]
Mighty Switch Force! Collection Review
Platforms: Playstation 4, Switch, Windows, and Xbox One (reviewed) I’m not often one for puzzle platformers. In fact, I’ve gotten to the point that I rarely even give them a glance anymore. When I saw that the Mighty Switch Force games were getting another shot at life on current generation consoles, I knew I would […]
A Plague Tale: Innocence Review
Platforms: Playstation 4, Windows, and Xbox One (reviewed) Point-and-click adventure games have faded out of popularity for a good while. As technology improved, the reliance on telling a story through something more akin to “Choose Your Adventure” books fell out of favor and instead moved to attempting to ape movies. As games got closer to […]
Eight to Consider: Games of E3 2019
It’s June and that can mean only one thing in the world of video games – E3 is upon us. It pains me to say it, but I can’t lie, E3 isn’t nearly as exciting as it was a decade ago when I got back into video games. That said, I’m not a completely jaded […]
Pokémon Platinum Review
Platform: Nintendo DS What’s important when you revisit a ten year old Pokémon game? There have been so many quality-of-life improvements over the years that going back to older games can feel a bit… rough. With that in mind, you might be wondering what on earth made me decide to plunge into Pokémon Platinum? Well, […]
