At first, I didn’t think I would like State of Decay 2. If you’ve spent any time around here at all, you know the depths of my obsession with the original State of Decay. I put in hundreds of hours, most spent in the Breakdown DLC, building and rebuilding my little patch […]
Sea of Thieves is a Microsoft play anywhere title by Rare that is available for Xbox One and PC. It currently costs $59.99 US. Anyone who knows me knows I love pirates. Anything pirate themed immediately grabs my attention and gets me excited; my favorite movie of all time since […]

When I first saw the “Coming Soon” link for Ginger: Beyond the Crystal (available on Steam, XBox One, and PS4) I have to admit that I may have squealed a bit. A puzzle platformer with an adorable little blue dragon-like character. It sounded like the perfect game to play with my […]
There is something aesthetically appealing about historical games that I value and appreciate. While I am not a huge fan of contemporary war games, I am fascinated with games that feature historical combat. One of my favorite games of all time is Call of Duty: World at War. This game […]
Dex, a Kickstarter-funded 2D sidescroller cyberpunk RPG (that’s a mouthful) originally available in early access in 2014 recently hacked its way onto consoles, with PS4 and Xbox One releases this summer. As a fan of cyberpunk worlds, choice-based games, and running in profile down long hallways, I figured I’d give […]
