After setting the gold standard for co-op gaming with It Takes Two, the team had a tough act to follow. Could they capture that same magic twice? The answer, after spending hours grinning from ear to ear playing Split Fiction, is a resounding yes. This is another phenomenal co-op adventure—one that pushes the boundaries of genre, storytelling, and gameplay variety in ways … Read More

I’ve been playing Monster Hunter games for years, though I wouldn’t call myself a series veteran. I first jumped in during the Wii and DS era, getting my hands on Monster Hunter Tri and Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate, and while I enjoyed them, it wasn’t until Monster Hunter World and Monster Hunter Rise that I really got hooked. Those games … Read More

I’ve been a pretty big Yu-Gi-Oh! fan for as long as I can remember. From collecting cards in the schoolyard to watching the anime religiously, the franchise has been a constant presence in my life since the franchise really blew up. But one of the most memorable parts of my Yu-Gi-Oh! journey was the early 2000s, when I spent countless hours playing the Yu-Gi-Oh! games on … Read More

After Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth took the series to Hawaii with Ichiban, Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii follows up with an unexpected but welcome protagonist—Goro Majima. This spin-off entry trades the neon-lit streets of Japan for the sun-soaked beaches and treacherous waters of Hawaii, bringing back the chaotic energy the Yakuza series is known for while introducing a fresh pirate twist. … Read More

When I first heard that Never 7 – The End of Infinity was getting a remaster, I knew I had to check it out. As a huge fan of Kotaro Uchikoshi’s later works—Nine Hours, Nine Persons, Nine Doors (999) and AI: The Somnium Files—I’ve always been intrigued by his earlier gaming contributions with the Infinity series. I had never played these games before, but with both Never … Read More

I’ll admit – I came into Ever 17 – The Out of Infinity completely blind. I had heard the name tossed around for years, often in the same breath as some of the greatest visual novels ever made, but I had never actually played it. What really piqued my interest this time around was the fact that it was written by Kotaro Uchikoshi, … Read More

I’ve dabbled in the Two Point series before, having spent some time with Two Point Campus. While I enjoyed its quirky management mechanics and charming humor, I eventually drifted away from it, despite having a good time. Two Point Museum, however, has had an entirely different effect on me. From the moment I placed my first exhibit, I was hooked, sinking many … Read More

I’ll be honest—I never played the original Phantom Brave when it first launched back in 2004. But with Phantom Brave: The Lost Hero arriving on the Nintendo Switch more than two decades later, I was eager to see what all the fuss was about. Thankfully, I quickly found out that you don’t need to have much prior experience with the series to enjoy this … Read More

When Trails Through Daybreak launched last year, it felt like a fresh start for the long-running Trails series—a game designed to welcome newcomers while still offering plenty for long-time fans. Trails Through Daybreak 2, however, takes a different approach. It’s not a standalone entry but a direct continuation of Van Arkride’s story, picking up right where the first game left off. If you haven’t played Daybreak … Read More
