Bit Orchard: Animal Valley Review
Platforms: Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, Nintendo Switch (reviewed), PC As I’ve gotten older I’ve found that my gaming tastes have changed quite a bit. I used to be more into story-driven games full of action, but in recent years, I find myself gravitating towards more “wholesome” experiences that just allow me to turn my […]

Devastator Review
Platforms: PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, Switch (reviewed), PC Devastator touts itself as being a retro-inspired twin-stick shooter that is polished to the point of being the most intense and satisfying twin-stick shooter experience possible. It also claims to have such a surprising amount of depth and subtlety that it offers […]
LumbearJack Review
Platforms: Nintendo Switch (reviewed), Steam The first time I laid eyes on LumbearJack was a couple of weeks ago during the Wholesome Direct Indie Game Showcase. I was immediately drawn to its cute and colorful, almost papercraft-style graphics. It also didn’t hurt that the game was about a bear smashing the crap out of things […]
Gore’s Gallery of Glorious Games – Volume One
This is a series I’ve been wanting to do for a while. There are so many games that pop up on digital storefronts nowadays (especially the Switch eShop) that it can be hard to figure out what is worth playing. It’s impossible to review every great game and some can get lost in the wasteland […]
Gore’s Favorite Games of Not-E3
It’s that time of year again! While E3 didn’t actually happen this year, there were still plenty of game announcements over the past week. I thought I’d take some time and cover a few of the ones that caught my eye. This obviously isn’t everything that was shown off and I wasn’t actually able to […]

Platforms: Xbox One, PlayStation 4 (reviewed), Nintendo Switch, Microsoft Windows, Linux, Classic Mac OS Family has always been the most important thing in my life. If a movie, television show, or game has a depiction of a caring, tight-knit family at the core of its story, I’m almost certainly on board. Children of Morta offers […]
Panzer Dragoon: Remake Review
Platforms: Stadia, Switch (reviewed), and Windows Panzer Dragoon is one of those imperfect perfect games. When it came out for the Saturn, it was used as ammunition in the console wars. It was a game that bolstered the arcade expertise of Sega’s developers to make a game of pure spectacle. The game’s desolate world overrun with […]
Glass Masquerade Review
Platforms: PC/Mac (Steam), Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4 (reviewed), Xbox One, Google Play The introduction of trophies and achievements into video games has been a blessing and a curse. On one hand, they may push us to do things we otherwise might not, allowing us to get more out of our games. For me though, seeing […]
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 […]
