I’ve been following Jujutsu Kaisen since the anime first began airing in 2020, and it quickly cemented itself as one of the most popular modern shonen series. Between its dark themes, high-octane battles, and genuinely emotional storytelling, it’s managed to stand out in a crowded field of anime adaptations. We’ve already seen the franchise make the leap to the big … Read More

I’ve been a big fan of Mages for a while now. They have this knack for creating visual novels that stick with me long after the credits roll. Steins;Gate is still one of my all-time favorite pieces of interactive storytelling, and more recently, Emio – The Smiling Man floored me with its dark atmosphere and gut-punch twists. So when I … Read More

I’ve been a fan of Demon Slayer since the anime first began airing and became a worldwide phenomenon, and when The Hinokami Chronicles came out in 2021, I jumped on it. It wasn’t perfect, but it captured the style and flair of the series well enough to keep me playing. Now we’ve got The Hinokami Chronicles 2, a direct sequel … Read More

I’ve been playing Donkey Kong games for as long as I can remember. I grew up on the original Donkey Kong Country trilogy on the SNES and Country 2 is still one of my all-time favorite platformers. Like a lot of longtime fans, I’ve always held a bit of cautious optimism about DK’s future. Donkey Kong 64 tried to go … Read More

Shadow Labyrinth caught my eye for a few reasons, but the biggest one? It’s a spiritual follow-up to one of my favorite episodes from Secret Level. That episode reimagined Pac-Man not as a happy arcade hero, but as something darker and stranger. So when I saw that Shadow Labyrinth was actually turning that idea into a full game, I knew … Read More

There’s no shortage of Souls-likes dropping this year, and it takes something special to stand out in a genre already packed with contenders trying to recapture that FromSoftware magic. Thankfully, Wuchang: Fallen Feathers is more than just another copycat. It’s a sharp, stylish, and surprisingly thoughtful game that carves out its own space in the genre. While it doesn’t reinvent … Read More

I still remember the moment I first saw the original Death Stranding reveal back during E3 2016. That intriguing reveal trailer, the cryptic symbols, Norman Reedus cradling a baby on a beach. It was unlike anything I’d ever seen. I became pretty obsessed. Every new trailer, I’d watch it on repeat, watch breakdown videos and try and work out what … Read More

The AI: The Somnium Files series isn’t a long running franchise but right from it’s inception in 2019 it’s held a special place in my heart, especially for its eccentric blend of crime drama, sci-fi, and heartfelt character moments. With the series’ mastermind, Kotaro Uchikoshi, stepping back into a supervisory role and not penning the story this time around, I went into … Read More

When I booted up Nintendo Switch Welcome Tour on my shiny new Nintendo Switch 2, I wasn’t quite sure what to expect. Was it a game? A tutorial? A tour of the console’s inner workings wrapped in cute Nintendo polish? Turns out, it’s a bit of all three. A mash-up of mini-games, tech demos, and console feature spotlights meant to … Read More

When Hogwarts Legacy first dropped in 2023, it was an immediate hit—selling millions in a matter of weeks. As someone who’s been knee-deep in the Harry Potter universe since I first experienced the films and the books as a kid, I couldn’t wait to explore a fully open-world Hogwarts game. I loved the game when I played it on the PS5 at … Read More
