Metrico+ (PC) Review


Once again, we find ourselves at the reverse end of a game I picked up back in the day via a humble bundle. It looked interesting so I figured "why not?" Well, it's not the worst decision I've ever made, but whether that's because it wasn't bad or it was short is up for debate. Probably a bit of both, though.

March Extra-Life Update



Hello everyone and welcome to our regular update. And we are continuing to march forward to the beloved weekend in November for Extra-Life! If you don't know what I'm talking about, welcome to my page, as I am pretty sure someone out there wishes I would shut up about this. I won't, but that's beside the point.

As for what Extra-Life is, it is a charity event run by the Children's Miracle network. I've taken to comparing this gaming marathon to a real-world marathon. In those events, you collect sponsors and donations from them who will basically pay to help you run across a major city to support the cause you are got the sponsors to support.

Extra-Life is a lot like that. In our case, however, we do not have to pick a cause. We already have: we are here to help sick kids. Children's Miracle Network takes care of the details. All we have to do is sign up and pick a hospital we are playing for, then get out there and get donations. Then, come November, we come together to play for 24 hours straight. This could be video games, board games, tabletop RPGs, card games, hell if you can make it work, I'm sure you could LARP for it (live action role playing for those of you who don't know). The only rule is, outside bathroom and food breaks, you don't stop playing.... and if you have to, you make up the time later.

But what if you can't play that week? Well I can speak up to that as they tend to pick the same weekend my family sets for a get-together for birthday celebrations, so I take the rain-date option and usually play the next weekend, so believe me when I say this is not an issue. So don't let get in your way of playing games to help kids. Just come on in, check it out, sign-up and start helping kids today!

And if you just can't play (or maybe don't play?), I'm not sure why you are here, but you can still help us. After all, we still need your help to help these kids. And we've made it as easy as possible. If you click the following link to reach our teampage, where a donate button will let you select who you want to donate under on the team (and therefore what hospital you wish to donate to help) and... well help us!


Thank you again for all your help. Joining or donating, we can't do it without you.

Golden Light (PC) Review


Here we have another game I probably would not have picked up had I bought myself. However, when Epic gave it away for free, I figured it looked just strange enough to give it a shot and a home in my backlog. Well, it definitely proved strange, but it was missing the staying power to really recommend you follow me through it.

A Hat in Time (PC) Review


I honestly can not remember when this game entered my library. If I had to hazard a guess, it would have been back when I was subscribed to Humble Bundle and decided "yeah this game could be fun." Unfortunately, while the themes indeed were, the game under it just fell short.

Persona 5 Strikers (PC) Review


This game was going to happen eventually, though to be fair, I wound up playing it on a different machine then I expected to. When it was announced, I knew it wasn't a traditional RPG, but it wasn't a dancing sim (like the Persona 4 offered as spinoffs to it's portable playing fans there for a while) and I honestly have had almost nothing but great experiences with the entire franchise. However, since the PC version would not have a physical copy to go with the rest of my collection, I figured I was going to wind up getting it on Switch. Then Steam came along and did what it does best... sales. So I picked it up and in time, began to play.

It was definitely worth my time, despite showing me why the game series it's play belongs to will never be for me. Step inside.

What Remains of Edith Finch (PC) Review


Ever since Epic has setup a store front, they've been trying to draw business by giving away a different game every week and if it struck me as interesting I would pick it up only for it to languish in my backlogs. This would be one of those games, so when I did my first dice roll in a long while (franchises took up a lot of my gaming time recently), this came up as the result. Interested, I installed and a few hours later, the credits were rolling. I have to say, it was a nice evening.

Ghostwire: Tokyo - Prelude (PC) Review


When over the Christmas holiday Epic Games gave away Ghostwire: Tokyo, I decided to pick this up as well since it takes place before the main event and is a free title. I already understood it was a visual novel, but I was hoping for a lot more then I got here. I pray this doesn't reflect on the main game beyond the setting.
