Normally I’d call these posts taking a look at the Humble Choice games “Early Impressions”, but I sort of broke the mould with this one and went ahead and finished it. Not to say I 100%’d it and got all…
Stray Gods came a little bit out of nowhere for me. The first I heard about it was from Jaedia during the last NextFest. I wouldn’t go ahead and say that Musicals are really my ‘thing’. I can’t think of…
I never played Chivalry. Or Mordhau. Or really any of the other multiplayer medieval combat games. With the exception of Mount and Blade: Warband, I suppose — but even there M&B was primarily a single-player experience for me. (Someone wake…
From the March 2023 Humble Choice bundle, I took a look at Edge of Eternity. This wasn’t the original plan. Originally, I was to take a look at Biomutant. And… I did. Briefly. I made the fatal flaw of daring…
I normally give these ‘early impressions’ games about two or so hours. Generally, that’s enough. With Thronebreaker, I’ve put in about 6 hours now, and every time I dipped back in for ‘I just need this one screenshot’, I ended…

Depending on your reviewer of choice, when Deathloop came out you would’ve either had a rather positive or a rather ‘meh’ view of the game before putting hands on it yourself. While the major commercial outlets were exceptionally positive, for…
The Descenders is a Mountain Biking-themed rogue-lite. No really! It is. I almost went as far as to say rogue-like, because there isn’t really much you unlock that helps you on subsequent runs. All the ‘stuff’ you get is cosmetic.…
Outriders was far from the perfect game when it launched. Technical issues threatened to devour the hardwon loot of your characters. Design choices at the end game meant focusing on DPS was the only way forward. While the game offered…
Personally? I’ve still been playing. Still struggling to find the time to slot in posts between playing probably excessive amounts of both Lost Ark and Elden Ring. Reading has taken a fairly severe backseat too. This one month has likely…
Elden Ring is a difficult game to talk about. Not least of which, because there is a very heightened sense of concern for spoilers for any content so much as breathing the game’s name. So to set the scene for…
