YIIK: A Postmodern RPG Review (PC)
For almost two months, I did a playthrough of YIIK: A Postmodern RPG on my personal blog, blogging about it and making videos the whole way through. At the end of it, I decided not to do a review for my blog…

Mortal Kombat 11 (PC) Review
As I’ve mentioned at least once or twice throughout my tenure here at Phenixx Gaming, I’ve been a stalwart fan of the Mortal Kombat franchise for several years now. As you might expect in light of that, I was exceptionally excited to…
Rogue Legacy (PC) Review
I suspect that the desire to be remembered in some fashion is a deep-seated part of human nature. Though our names will surely fade over time after we’re gone, something tells me that most people would like to prevent that for as…
Her Story (PC) Review
I don’t know why, but I scrutinize acting in video games very harshly. If you can’t act as well as Tom Hanks, then I don’t think you should really be acting in a serious manner. I honestly take Hanks as seriously in…

Devolver Bootleg (PC) Review
Devolver Digital has been a huge force in indie games, publishing a whole bunch of hits like Dennaton’s Hotline Miami and Dodge Roll’s Enter the Gungeon. You may ask yourself: can I play a cheaper version of those games? Well, regardless of…
This War of Mine (PC) Review
Imagine, if you will, that EA unveiled a new entry in its venerable Sims franchise; wherein players are tasked not just with keeping their Sims happy and healthy, but also with keeping them alive in a much darker setting than the norm…
Life Goes On: Done to Death (PC) Review
I’ve always considered myself to have something of an interesting relationship with virtually every puzzle game I’ve played in the past. While I’ve most assuredly enjoyed such critically-acclaimed puzzle titles as Valve’s venerable Portal franchise, my levels of enjoyment were typically tempered…
