Video games are complicated, even in their simplest form: They are digital databases, mechanics-focused, technology-advancing, intricate creations that require a sharp mind to design, program, and code. It’s only natural then that a lot of video games have become increasingly complicated properties, not only in lore and world building, but also in mechanics and scope; […]

The Adventure pals
The Adventure pals is “one of those games”; a fun, relaxing action-platformer, which does not attempt to challenge the player with challenging gameplay. It is a goofy, light-hearted game, which you spent a few hours with (around 9 to be precise) and then you move on; you won’t break your controller, you won’t get stuck […]
September has been an irregularly strong month for video games; Control came out late August, Borderlands 3, FIFA, Untitled Goose Game, Overland, Sayonara Wild Hearts, Gears 5. The list can go on with at least a dozen more titles, but I’ll cut it there! I’ll be covering some of them throughout this month, and the […]

A copy was purchased and throughout the review there will be some light spoilers for the game and its predecessor in the series “To the moon”.

This is a list of games I wished I liked more than I did, including 8 that are sorted alphabetically and the top two; what this is not, is a list of bad games or worst games of the year, or games that absolutely have nothing good or worthwhile about them. I liked some of […]
If I had to summarize Gears 5 in one sentence it would go something like this: You know that buddy we all have, who says he’s going to change and then starts to do some things differently where you see some difference, but stops halfway through? That’s Gears 5 in a nutshell; it realizes it […]
Remedy entered 2019 in a weird place; after middling reviews on their last major projects (Alan Wake’s stand-alone expansion American Nightmare and Quantum Break), the highly regarded studio no longer possessed the automatic buzz its projects used to have. Control was highly-anticipated with trailers and showcases of the game gathering momentum and hype, but there […]
