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.
