Cat Quest III Review (PC)
As a reviewer, occasionally you will run across a piece of media you might have assumed the worst about, but then it turned out quite the opposite. This happened to me with the movie Paddington 2, a film that Warner Bros. sent us for review years ago and which I put off until the day before release to review. It doesn’t happen often, but when it does it usually is a profound and satisfying experie...[Read More]

Simpler Times Review (PC)
Sometimes a gaming experience doesn’t have to be long to be good. A game like Sayonara Wild Hearts is merely an hour and some change but it is a definable and repeatable experience. That Annapurna classic proves that it’s better to feel and connect with a game than it is to count the minutes you have spent with it. And maybe that is an underlying message that has a deeper meaning that we all need....[Read More]
SteamWorld Heist II Review (PS5)
Having played games for over 40 years, I have been very much in touch with how I feel about a title in the first two hours of gameplay. For example, I knew that Bethesda’s Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion would consume me after the first hour of gameplay, even though I hadn’t played any Elder Scrolls games prior, thus having no expectations. Seeing the complexity of the gameplay, the background skills t...[Read More]
Bō: Path of the Teal Lotus Review (PC)
I am not that great at difficult games. I can’t tell you how much I stink at anything FromSoftware makes. But! I appreciate what FromSoftware does. I understand what they are trying to do, who it is catered to, and how they craft their difficulty that is more gameplay-centric than anything else. FromSoftware crafts the controls, the visuals, and everything in between well so that the player has th...[Read More]
Flock Review (PC)

Sometimes just getting in touch with nature, relaxing, and having small achievable goals is enough to get you through a day. Enter Flock from developer Hollow Ponds. Flock is a simple game of gathering information, solving puzzles, and creating a firm stance about how important animals and th...[Read More]

The Tribe Must Survive Review (PC
Way back in the early part of 2024, I played through The Tribe Must Survive while it was in early access. What I found was an addictive game that pressed me with its strategy to keep a group of people alive, develop their world while catering to their needs, and at the same time force me to get better through the emotional fragility of its characters. It was one helluva EA playthrough. Now, it’s o...[Read More]
