I had the pleasure of being the one to review the last Dad of War game in 2018. As much as I enjoyed the overall experience, I had some issues with the lack of weapon variety and the repetitive nature of the boss fights, the very items the franchise was so well known for. I was happy with our new fatherly Kratos, but felt the gameplay didn’t hold up to its predecessors. While most of my team agreed with me, some others felt that my 8.5 out of 10 score was too low, and it lead to years of jo...
I grew up in a pretty conservative household where everything I watched or listened to had to be approved by my parents. I wasn’t even allowed to watch Harry Potter as a kid, which was a pretty big deal to miss out on as a child of the 90’s.

Deathloop was a surprise announcement during the E3 conference in 2019. It was originally set to release in 2020, but thanks to COVID-19, it was delayed well into 2021.

I began seeking out other games that might fill that cosmic void and I stumbled across The Sinking City. I had high hopes for it and came up with my dream wishlist of what we’d experience within the sinking city of Oakmont, MA. This week we finally go...
It’s no secret that I love turn based strategy games, especially when they mimic system similar to that of XCOM: Enemy Unknown and the subsequent releases of XCOM: Enemy Within, XCOM 2, and XCOM 2:War of the Chosen. When I heard tell that there was an upcoming tactics game based on the established Mutant Year Zero series, I had to get my hands on it.
