The Ninja Saviors: Return of the Warriors (Switch) Review
The Nintendo Switch is home to truly remarkable titles if you look hard enough though one recurring trend is the return of old-school arcade games. Titles, such as the Arcade Classics Anniversary Collection bring the newer generations of players today into the founding ideas of action and arcade video games. Peering into these time capsules is fantastic, experiencing older principles in game desig...[Read More]
Super Crush KO (Switch) Review
If an alien were to show up with an army and steal your cat, you’d fight like all hell to get your cat back right? Super Crush KO for the Nintendo Switch isn’t like traditional action games, featuring a refreshing look and feel.

Tanto Cuore (Tabletop) Review
Tanto Cuore (pronounced Tan-toe Coo-reh) is a two to four-player deck-builder card game from Japanime Games. It features cute anime maids that you hire and have serve you by giving you lots of love, some of them even stay in your chamber. Y’know, saying it out loud at all feels creepy, but this game is entirely innocent, I promise!
CODA (Film) Review – A Classical Patrick Stewart
The famous philosopher Plato once said, “Music gives a soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination and life to everything.” One’s life is not simply measured by the moments of their life but rather the lasting impression that one creates during their time. The philosopher Plato’s resolve resonates in the short film CODA, as the main character Henry (Patrick Stewa...[Read More]

Heartfelt stories seem to fit into the anime film medium really well and that trend continues with the anime feature film Weathering With You.
Lightmatter (Steam) Review
When I think of 3D puzzle platformers, my mind immediately jumps to the critically acclaimed Portal and it’s sequel Portal 2. Those games featured a fun sense of humor, a straightforward goal that featured some mystery and intrigue underneath, and of course some pretty amazing puzzles to solve. Providing players with all the tools necessary to solve each puzzle presented and making them feel like ...[Read More]
Digimon Story Cyber Sleuth Complete Edition (Switch) Review
Much like Power Rangers and Pokemon, I have a deep love of Digimon from my time spent watching the show each Saturday in the early 90s. While Pokemon continued to captivate me as a child with each release of the Game Boy games, I always felt more invested in the stories found in the Digimon show; the end of a story arch felt like an event that was built up by ads and special hour blocks. I’ve alwa...[Read More]
Power Rangers Battle for the Grid (PS4) Review
At one time, Power Rangers was the most successful television brand that Fox had ever produced. Working in tandem with Saban Entertainment, the show caused an almost instant cultural phenomenon by using Japanese Super Sentai footage and injecting it with an American narrative where actors were brought in and voices were dubbed over ranger scenes. Throughout the 90s, Power Rangers was unstoppable b...[Read More]
AVerMedia Live Streamer DUO Kit Review
I am always on the search for better solutions to my production setup. I never quite have the best but I always have a broad equipment spread so that I can create what I am into at the time. I produce written content, audio, video, and live streams and I’ve been doing so semi-professionally for many years now. Packages like the AVerMedia Live Streamer Duo, a combo pack that puts together the Live ...[Read More]
The Everything Tabletop Games Book Review
We are currently in what I would call a renaissance of tabletop gaming. Tabletop gaming has hit a huge surge of popularity, bringing people together in an age that has been defined by online interaction. This demand has been met by a seemingly endless supply of games to choose from and that can be intimidating to walk into. “What game should I play?” can be a daunting question when you approach th...[Read More]
