I like this new Atari. It’s like they’re trying. I can’t say that for the last 19 Atari’s since Warner Communications sold them off, but this variant is taking some old ideas and implementing them into a new groove.

I think I’m creeping up on a record for the number of Kingdom Rush games reviewed within a six-month span. It’s a record I would gladly hold, of course, as I have thoroughly if not addictively enjoyed the series so far on the Xbox. It might be the best Xbox game/series that I have played in 2023. Hmmm. Anyway! The good folks at Ironhide Game Studio have been churning them out lately, and the lates...[Read More]
