Tortuga: A Pirate’s Tale Review

I’m not a huge fan of simulators, as my personality needs to be engaged with stories and driven by content. Building up a life, creating environments, and maintaining a life balance in a game are just not my cup of tea. This is why I don’t play the sims because it’s a bit too much responsibility when I’m living a life that already contains too much. I don’t want to do chores when I should be relax...[Read More]

Long Live the Queen Review

Ratalaika Games put together an interesting simulator/Choose-Your-Own-Adventure narrative-driven game with Long Live the Queen. You get to essentially raise and educate a young soon-to-be Queen in the art of everything. The joys of this game are the specific attributes you work with to develop the queen the way you see fit. The less-than-joyous parts of the game are the number of unpredictable sce...[Read More]

Circus Electrique Review

This game is a lot to unpack. It took an incredible amount of time to understand the initial structure of it to the point where I could see the bright spots, as well as the ‘needs improvement’ places in the design. The game does a great job of juggling quite a few gameplay design details and requires a lot of thinking on the part of the gamer. That’s not necessarily a bad thing, it just means that...[Read More]

PowerWash Simulator Review

What in the world have I gotten myself into? I was a messy kid when I was growing up, something that continued into my college years. When I got married and had kids, that all changed. Once you face a constant mess that is caused by tiny tornadoes that keep going like some weird never-ending storm on Jupiter, you begin to change your tidy ways quickly. For the last 20 years, I have prepared myself...[Read More]

APICO (PC)

Farming simulations are fun games when done right–especially when the “chore” of maintaining a homestead becomes second-nature to the primary goal of something bigger. In Stardew Valley, all my hours spent on my (several) farms and in the mines were for the purpose of restoring the community center. During my summers off from grad school, I found solace in playing games that reli...[Read More]
