Duck Paradox (PC) Review
Being DigitalChumps’ resident goose expert for the past several years, I’ve taken it upon myself to explicitly want games featuring geese, birds, and ducks. Every time I see a goose in the neighborhood, I wish it a friendly honk. At one point, I had three ducks as pets – they were awesome. You’re welcome for me sharing my history with fun avians, folks. These are my qualifications for assessing ga...[Read More]
Wooting 80HE Mechanical Keyboard Review
The Wooting 80HE has finally arrived to my office, and I could not be more thrilled. I, along with other consumers, have patiently waited for the 80HE to ship after Wooting found (and corrected!) a critical manufacturing defect that would have rendered our keyboards unusable. While it may be worth questioning if it’s been worth the wait, there’s probably a better set of questions to ask: What is t...[Read More]
Mortal Kombat 1: Khaos Reigns (PS5) Review
Mortal Kombat 1’s first major expansion, Khaos Reign, is by no means a terrible expansion. Overpriced? Maybe. Possibly. I could be convinced that paying nearly the entire cost of the base game for an expansion of content which includes six kharacters (only three at launch), a two-or-so-hour kampaign, and a smattering of aesthetic content is a troublesome trend. When compared to the likes of Street...[Read More]
KIIBOOM LOOP75 Mechanical Keyboard Review
Full metal aluminum construction. A gradient design. Modular structure. Smooth typing. These are all terms that I used to describe KIIBOOM’s LOOP65 a short while ago. Despite my quibbles with it being a 65% keyboard, it won me over on how well it felt and sounded like a quality pre-built keyboard. Secretly, I wished that KIIBOOM had opted into making the LOOP65 a 75% keyboard instead, Function key...[Read More]
30XX Dally’s Feline Fury DLC Review (Nintendo Switch)
Over the past two years (wow, time flies!), I’ve been fortunate to have seen Batterystaple Games’ 30XX evolve from an early access game to a full release. Check out my coverage of the full release in 2023! Since then, 30XX has had several major updates that have refined Nina and Ace’s abilities and the roguelike gameplay to give players more and more reason to play. It’s refreshing, really, to see...[Read More]
Grapple Dogs: Cosmic Canines (Nintendo Switch) Review
Oh, Grapple Dog, how I have missed ye. Your adorable charm, your silly results screen where I could pet you for being such a good boy, your smooth swinging via a grappling hook. All of it. I’ve missed you. You are unlike any platformer I’ve played because of how well you incorporate swinging and platforming beyond simply running and jumping. It’s been…a little over two years since I reviewed Grapp...[Read More]
Chilkey ND65 CS HE Mechanical Keyboard Review
Chilkey’s ND75 has a special place in my heart for being an affordable mechanical keyboard that compromised on so very little. It had a sleek little screen, too! Since reviewing it earlier this year, I’ve occasionally come back to using it as my daily driver so I could get that satisfying crispness that emitted from the keyboard’s aluminum body alongside its Gateron EF Dopamine Blue switches. It’s...[Read More]
Keylocker (Nintendo Switch) Review
Keylocker claims itself to be a Cyberpunk turn-based rhythm JRPG inspired by the Mario & Luigi series and Chrono Trigger. Knowing this, I went in with the expectation that rhythm gameplay would be the core element, be it tapping to the beat, notes on a note highway ala Guitar Hero or DJ Hero, or hearing my musical attacks change the flow of battle along with its soundtrack. The few screenshots...[Read More]
Lofree Flow LITE Mechanical Keyboard Review
Low-profile mechanical keyboards are quite unique, I haven’t quite figured out what kind of user would get the most out of a keyboard that is so…small. I know that laptop keyboards are flush with the body of the laptop, but laptop keyboards rarely go beyond chiclet. A mechanical laptop keyboard is like a rare white elk. I use mechanical keyboards – they have a distinct nostalgia to them that feel ...[Read More]

Check out the news below… =========== Today, Riot Games and Virgin Music Group proudly unveil the artists on the Arcane League of Legends: Season 2 original soundtrack, featuring a globally diverse lineup of exclusive tracks from artis...[Read More]
Turtle Beach Kone II & Kone II Air Gaming Mice Review
Gaming mice don’t always have to be about additional buttons, fancy LEDs, flashy colorways, and high polling rates (although all of the above are very nice). Sometimes, the perfect fit is something that improves one’s gameplay by ensuring a lesser degree of strain and natural ease of use. In other words, ergonomics are the great white whale of a PC gamer who wants a mouse that fits just right. I’v...[Read More]
Wild Bastards (PC) Review
Showdowns, when implemented in video games, are often tense exchanges between two players. In PvE settings, they’re occasionally made in a 1vX situation, where the player is expected to overcome waves of enemies despite being vastly outnumbered and outgunned. In Destiny 2, I tried my hand at playing its Trials of Osiris. While it wasn’t a true “showdown” in the sense that I was against a team, som...[Read More]
