When the Yakuza series first kicked off back in 2005, I don’t think anyone expected it to become the long running, ever-evolving saga it is today. What started as a gritty crime drama set in the neon soaked streets of Kamurocho has grown into one of gaming’s most consistent storytelling machines. The remake cycle began in 2017 with Yakuza Kiwami, … Read More

I’ve been a fan of the God of War series for as long as I can remember. What’s always pulled me in isn’t just the brutal combat or the spectacle. It’s the way the games blend action with mythology and character driven storytelling. From ancient Greece to the Norse realms, the series has never been afraid to take big swings. … Read More

When Paranormasight: The Seven Mysteries of Honjo quietly launched in 2023, it felt like one of those rare releases that only a handful of people were talking about, even though it absolutely deserved more attention. It was eerie, smartly written, and surprisingly experimental for a visual novel. But it never quite broke into the mainstream conversation. It was an underappreciated … Read More

When Avowed first launched last year, I sank many hours into it and came away impressed overall. I loved the world, the writing, and the flexibility in how I could build my character, yet it felt like a game that hadn’t quite reached its full potential. Over the past year, though, it’s been steadily updated and refined. Now, with the … Read More

For a series as big as My Hero Academia, I’ve always been a little surprised at how few console games we’ve had. The anime exploded in popularity not long after it debuted, and the fan base has only grown since. We got a couple of solid arena fighters, most recently My Hero One’s Justice 2, but after that, things went … Read More

When the original Code Vein launched, the idea of an anime styled soulslike immediately had me interested. A moody, post-apocalyptic world full of vampiric Revenants, over-the-top weapons, and flashy abilities sounded like a perfect blend of style and challenge. I enjoyed what I played of it. The combat felt weighty, the character creator was absurdly detailed, and the companion system … Read More

Right from that first teaser trailer Tarsier Studios put out for Reanimal in late 2024, I was instantly interested. I’ve been a big fan of their work since Little Nightmares and its sequel. Those games stuck with me for years because of their oppressive atmosphere, clever environmental storytelling, and the way they made me feel small in a world that … Read More

I’ll be upfront. Otome games are not usually where I spend my time. I’ve always appreciated visual novels, especially ones that lean hard into strong writing, memorable characters, and stories that are willing to take risks, but romance focused titles often fall just outside my comfort zone. Still, Temirana: The Lucky Princess and the Tragic Knights caught my attention. The … Read More

Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade is one of those games that barely needs an introduction. It’s a modern reimagining of one of the most beloved RPGs ever made, and for years it felt closely tied to high-end hardware. That’s why seeing it finally land on Nintendo Switch 2 feels like a small miracle. After spending a good amount of time … Read More

Nearly six years ago, Animal Crossing: New Horizons arrived at exactly the right moment. It was a gentle, welcoming game in a stressful time, and for many people it became a daily ritual. I poured many hours into my island back in 2020, then slowly drifted away as updates dried up and my town settled into a comfortable routine. Coming … Read More
