Grimoire Groves (PC) Preview
I think it has been pretty well established by the number of reviews I’ve done on Rogue-likes that I’m a big fan of the genre. However, any chance I get to cross my love of Rogue-likes with my love of cozy games…

Tomb Raider IV-VI Remastered (PC) – Review
I’m glad everyone’s up to date on what is and isn’t Roman, so I don’t need to explain what IV, V, and VI are to Americans anymore. Continuing on from where Aspyr left off with the Tomb Raider remasters last year, we…
Flint: Treasure of Oblivion (PC) – Review
As the Sweet Transvestite sang, “And when you’re a professional pirate…” Set in the golden age of piracy (minus the bay of the internet), Flint: Treasure of Oblivion plays as a prequel to Scottish writer Robert Louis Stevenson’s seminal work and character,…
Eureka “Many Happy Returns” – Review
That’s a walking red flag, and I’m sticking by that no matter what. Directed by Jefery Levy, “Many Happy Returns” is the first of his two outings as director; the second being in episode 7, “Blink.” Written by show creators Cosby and…

Door Kickers 2: Task Force North (PC) – Review
Much like America’s war in the Middle East, Romanian studio KillHouse Games’ Door Kickers 2: Task Force North felt somewhat like it was in early access for longer than time itself. Finally out in its 1.0 release, the fully updated sequel to…
Planet Coaster 2 (Xbox Series X) Review
Planet Coaster is one of the games I have played the most on the Xbox Series X. As a huge fan of sandbox-style simulation games and evidently a theme park nerd, this series is tailor-made for my niche interests. I also adored…
Is PC Gaming Reaching a Singularity?
Editor’s Note: While there is mention of the use of piracy in this article, Phenixx Gaming nor its staff are promoting or advertising such means. I realized something a couple of nights ago. Toward the end of 2024, Rockstar Games finally ported…
Eureka “Pilot” – Review
The quote at the start of EUReKA (as it is stylized) goes thusly, “A little Knowledge is a dangerous thing. So is a lot.” For Colin Ferguson’s Sheriff Carter, that’s pretty true. Directed by Peter O’Fallon, it is difficult to say O’Fallon…
