Obsidian Entertainment’s Avowed is here, and I’ve had the pleasure of playing it for the last few weeks. After spending many hours with it, I can confidently say that Avowed will capture RPG fans far and wide. However, I haven’t been able to finish it yet, and that’s a shame…

Europa is an adventure platforming game from the mind of Helder Pinto, the former artist on Overwatch 1 and 2. Europa has been in development since 2017, but it first caught my eye earlier this year. A wondrous creation from Novadust Entertainment, that gives me Studio Ghibli vibes has been…
Atlus has a long history of creating fantastic turn-based RPGs, but the Persona series never quite grabbed me for whatever reason. Thankfully, Studio Zero has finally decided to explore a more fantasy-oriented setting with Metaphor: ReFantazio. For this reason and others, I have thoroughly enjoyed my time with the game,…
