Noreya: The Gold Project (PC) Review
Dreamirl’s Noreya: The Gold Project turned out to surprise me the longer I stuck with it. This 2D-platforming metroidvania reminded me of Astral Ascent in terms of its fluidity while masquerading as an exploration-focused adventure through beautifully designed biomes full of enemies. It functions like a normal metroidvania but transforms into something relatively unique, albeit not fully reaching ...[Read More]
MARS 2120 (PC) Chumps Preview
Chumps Preview is a special kind of post where we unofficially preview games in Early Access, Beta, or are otherwise “unfinished.” This kind of preview is meant to be a first impression rather than a definitive review where we provide a rating to determine a game’s value. As such, we fully expect a game covered in a Chumps Preview to have room for improvement, some bugginess/incompleteness, and ot...[Read More]
Epomaker RT100 Mechanical Keyboard Review
As I’ve reviewed mechanical keyboards, I’ve come to appreciate big swings on the form factor front. By big swings, I mean adding things like volume knobs, screens, and other things that can transform a mechanical keyboard into a unique centerpiece to one’s office and/or gaming space. As someone who loves all things classic tech, I want a combination of new-school LED-fueled accoutrements with trad...[Read More]
Nine Sols (PC) Review
When I was younger, I was very interested in Eastern religions despite my Orthodox Christian upbringing. Things like Hinduism, Buddhism, Shintoism, and Taoism all piqued my interests in reassessing the world and what it meant to survive in a world of strife. Perhaps this stemmed from my familiarity and comfort with the notion of death, a conversation topic my now late father and I regularly discus...[Read More]

Tevi (PS5) Review
Last year, I was given an opportunity to preview Tevi for the PC. At the time, it was in Early Access, meaning that much of the game was unfinished and the main goal was for me to test out its metroidvania meets bullet hell combat in a handful of boss encounters. At the time, I was solidly impressed with what I was given access to play. Tevi released last November on PC. I didn’t get to review the...[Read More]
Epomaker Shadow-S Mechanical Keyboard Review
Epomaker’s Shadow-S is one of the newest additions to Epomaker’s line of mechanical keyboards. Boasting an LED screen and volume knob, it adds some additional aesthetic appeal for users who want something more out of their mechanical keyboards. I’ve been impressed with Epomaker’s attempts at changing up their lineup to appeal to consumers, especially the DynaTab 75X. Let’s see how this new tenkeyl...[Read More]

Turtle Beach Stealth 600 Gen 3 Headset Review
Turtle Beach’s Stealth 600 headset has underwent two generations of releases leading up to today. Their initial release featured channel mixing, some bass effects, decent battery life, and an impressive price point. Back in 2017, it was one of the best selling headsets of the PS4 and XB One generation because of how well it reinvented the headset space with surround sound quality. A few years late...[Read More]
