Dragon Quest IV: Chapters of the Chosen

Dragon Quest IV: Chapters of the Chosen is the first game of the Zenithian Trilogy. Originally the last Dragon Quest game to arrive on the NES, it didn’t get very much attention due to being released at the tail-end of the NES lifecycle stateside. After receiving a PS1ground-up remake, it eventually made its way to

Shadows of Adam

Shadows of Adam is a pretty cool little retro indie RPG. A full play through took me about 15 hours because the Switch version comes with the DLC dungeons. After going through those and getting a ton of levels the actual endgame was easy peasy. The DLC dungeons were tough as nails though. Not like

Ori and the Will of the Wisps

You ever play a sequel and it’s a complete and total let down? Where they screwed up everything good about the first game, and they didn’t improve on anything? Yea, me too. Well good news! Ori and the Will of the Wisps is not that kind of sequel. This is one of the few successors that

Ys 8

Let me start by saying that I am a total newbie when it comes to gaming. My boyfriend got me into it about two years ago. I have been crazy about video games since then! With that being said… here is my review for Ys 8! Ys 8 is an action-based RPG. According to my

Ori and the Blind Forest

Wow. This game is gorgeous…. and hard as nails. Ori was a blast to play from start to finish. The game follows the little glow fox Ori as he tries to revive the forest in which he lives. A big nasty owl stole the life from the tree that supplies the forest with all its

Carto

Carto was another GamePass find! Also another short game, clocking in around 6 hours. Carto is a puzzle game blended with adventure. You play as Carto, the shy granddaughter of a cartographer/airship pilot. She never talks; only reacts with ascii emojis like “;-)” and “<3”, etc. After you accidentally shift a map around, causing a storm to

Spider-Man Miles Morales

In what amounts to a lengthy DLC to 2018’s Spider-Man, is a fantastic continuation of that story. All of the same positives I came away with from the first game exist here as well: Great story and game play, fantastic presentation and an epic soundtrack. I will say that the action/story sequences in this title

Yes, Your Grace

Yes, Your Grace is a very unique game. It’s considered a management simulator. I had to look up the actual genre because I had no idea. In Yes, Your Grace you have three resources you have to manage: Gold, supplies, and agents. Gold is money, supplies are a generic term for food and resources, and
Super Lucky's Tale logo

Super Lucky’s Tale

Found this little gem on XBOX Game Pass. Super Lucky’s Tale is the story of Lucky. A little fox who likes to smack things with his tail and burrow in the ground. One day his sister shows up after her long search for a magical book. Lucky get’s sucked inside and must beat all the

Hades

Hades was a huge step outside of my comfort zone. I’m normally a JRPG kinda guy. Even my action games are JRPGS, such as Ys. With that being said, holy crap, it blew me out of the water. I’ve never played a rogue or rogue-lite game before. The addictiveness of getting the stuffing beat out
