The Detective Reaper Invites (PC) Review
Logic games are often those that appeal to a very select group of players, with a small number having a cult following. A notable series is Ace Attorney, in which players took on the role of Phoenix Wright and used impressive amounts of deductive reasoning to solve court cases in overly dramatic fashions. Ace Attorney’s gameplay loop of multiple bouts of logic tests is supplemented by its story, k...[Read More]
Turtle Beach Vulcan II TKL Pro Mechanical Keyboard Review
It should be noted that mechanical keyboards aren’t just for office work, folks. If you’ve been following my mechanical keyboard reviews over the past few months, you’ll already know that mechanical gaming keyboards boast features that PC players are most concerned about. Thockiness, hot-swappability, and wireless connectivity might be of interest to some office workers, but PC players are concern...[Read More]
Turtle Beach Burst II Air Gaming Mouse Review
Over the past few years, I’ve used Logitech’s G502 HERO as my gaming mouse of choice. It had some heft, it had the appropriate amount of extra buttons, it had a simple LED (which I never bothered to adjust), and an excellent 25k DPI sensor. I’ve gone through two units because of how I’ve become so attached to its ergonomic design and how I could add some weight to it. Yes, dear reader, I’ve opted ...[Read More]

Turtle Beach Stealth 500 Gaming Headset Review
There is nothing wrong with an entry-level headset, especially for those wanting to level up their game to become slightly more competitive when playing first-person shooters. Things like footsteps and shooting sounds can give the player an indication of where danger is and where they need to go to stay alive. Or kill other players. Both are factually true. Regardless, not all players want or even...[Read More]
Realm of Ink (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]

Chilkey ND75 Mechanical Keyboard Review
It’s incredibly rare when a sub-$100 keyboard excites me. This isn’t to say that budget mechanical keyboards are “bad” – not at all. It’s just that the lower-end of the mechanical keyboard price spectrum often includes a wealth of compromises, going anywhere from weird switches, questionable build quality, or a lack of customization that mechanical keyboard consumers often seek as they become more...[Read More]
Athenian Rhapsody (PC) Review
What does it mean when a game looks incredibly similar to an indie title with a cult following? Does it make it a knockoff? A carbon copy? A love letter to source material? I know many folks asked themselves about the uniqueness of Palworld when it came out, despite it being a Pokemon meets Fortnite meets gun game. Regardless of choice, there’s much to be said about originality when new games emer...[Read More]
ROBOBEAT (PC) Review
Several weeks ago, I had the pleasure of previewing ROBOBEAT, which was in Early Access at the time. Despite being in Early Access, ROBOBEAT felt nearly complete barring some information-presentation issues that I hoped would be corrected for the final release. The few hours I spent in-game were full of high-octane shooting to the beat of the song that was currently playing. Of course, there were ...[Read More]
