Darkest Dungeon (PC) Review

Imagine, if you will, that one day you receive a letter from one of your distant family members in which they bequeath to you your ancestral home, as it is your birthright. Your family member proceeds to explain that they have squandered…

Precipice (PC) Review

According to the “multiverse” theory, there could hypothetically exist a universe in which the world’s history has played out exactly the same as it has in the current universe; with the exception that animals with intelligence equal to that of humans were…

Mortal Kombat X (PC) Review

As I’ve mentioned before over the course of my tenure here at Phenixx Gaming, I’ve been a stalwart fan of the Mortal Kombat franchise for almost as long as I can remember. I’ve never been particularly skilled at any game in the…

L.A. Noire (PC) Review

As I’ve mentioned before in certain reviews I’ve written for Phenixx Gaming, I have something of an inexplicable penchant for games that simulate anything which modern society considers a “normal” job, regardless of the degree to which these games simulate any given…

A few years ago, I landed a quite temporary job working for my county’s election department. I was only required to work on election days, hence why I emphasized that this job was temporary. Each election day I worked was a twelve-and-a-half-hour…

Stardew Valley (PC) Review

Every now and then, I feel an overwhelming need to just drop everything I’m working on or dealing with, and get away from it all somehow, even if only for a short time. I suspect that’s a somewhat common feeling among most…

NITE Team 4 (PC) – Review

I love hacking games, it’s a power fantasy many people enjoy the idea of, including Ubisoft. However, Watch_Dogs and Watch_Dogs 2 are neither pro-hacking nor anti-hacking, they are both games with the idea of hacking in the background. Watch_Dogs 2 is probably…
