Sin Slayers (PC) Review

There’s an elephant in the room that I want to address right up front. Sin Slayers, as it originally existed when I received a review key for it years ago, appears to have since been removed from sale on Steam. The developer…

Spilled! (PC) Review

Eco-conservation themes aren’t new in gaming. Truthfully, Final Fantasy VII puts “Save the Planet” in big lights hanging over the party’s head for 100+ hours, and that’s just the original release. Spilled! is a more low-key affair, a simple experience based on…

Call of Boba (PC) Early Access Review

A standout in recent Wholesome Directs for me has been Call of Boba, an inescapably-adorable pixel-art shop management game that not only looks cute as a button but is quite deep with tons of mechanics. Beyond running a bubble tea store, the title incorporates…

Wolfenstein: Youngblood (PC) Review

Second Wind’s Yahtzee Croshaw once said, “Nazis are like Skittles in that you can rid the world of as many as you like and never get a bad taste in your mouth.” Yahtzee is absolutely right about that, which is why I’m…

Atomfall (PC) – Review

By the 60s, the UK was returning to a decent economy with low unemployment, and Atomfall’s alt-history proposed a somewhat similar time frame. However, the fire at the Windscale nuclear power plant in 1957 seemed to be a bit of a setback;…

Shadow Warrior 3: Definitive Edition (PC) Review

Sometimes life shows us that it is indeed possible to have too much of a good thing. That sentiment makes up most of how I feel about Shadow Warrior 3. I feel that way for several reasons, the first of which is…

Assassin’s Creed Shadows (PC) – Review

Ah yes, the Assassin’s Creed that everyone was complaining about because it has a Black guy in Japan, ignoring Nioh’s William Adams being turned Irish. Delayed a few times and noted for controversies beyond “going woke,” Assassin’s Creed Shadows takes the series…

Wanderstop (PC) Review

In most cases, life doesn’t really turn out the way we think it will. We set a goal or an image in our heads of what our life will look like in 5 or 10 years, and when that time comes, it…

Rise of the Ronin (PC) – Review

Before the fall of the Tokugawa Shogunate, the Boshin war, and the end of Japan’s Edo Period, Rise of the Ronin highlights a fractured Japan. A country mostly of isolation (ignoring the Japanese Empire and the Meiji Reform), the Bakumatsu period sparked…

A Musical Story (PC) Review

Warning: The subject of this review contains references and depictions of violence, use and abuse of recreational drugs, and other mature themes. Reader discretion is advised. Some games have titles that perfectly describe what you’re in for when you play them. A…
