    I’ve Been Playing Hogwarts Legacy on Easy Mode and it’s GREAT!

    So, it’s finally here: Hogwarts Legacy. It’s been an emotional rollercoaster for Potterheads since, well, pretty much always honestly. But it’s finally here, isn’t it? Something that once we ruminated on as a possibility actually exists now. I grabbed a little bit of gameplay way back in February, wondering if the storytelling was going to be up to par. Since then, I’ve picked it up again on console and I played it for…

    Still Dropping into Minecraft to Check on my Farm

    Ah, yes, a glorious sunrise in Minecraft valley amongst the idling cattle, rolling waters, and orange pattern of rain among my hermitic existence in the randomly generated terrain. For the record, I don’t totally remember exactly what it was that I set out to do to do with all this stuff. There is definitely stuff in this game though–glorious stuff! First off, relax. Also, if you need to relax you might want to…

    Ghostbusters are Back and Even Better in Their New Game

    Nobody asked for a Ghostbusters Video Game Remastered review in 2021, especially from a guy who reviews indie games. It’s sure to be overshadowed by the mega Afterlife release coverage, but maybe, just maybe, you weren’t sure who to call. So, that’s where I spawn my digital specter presence to declare, “These Ghostbusters are prepared.” Platforms: PC, Switch, Playstation, Xbox I AIn’t Afraid of No Ghostbuster Reboots I’m not sure if there’s anybody…

    Power Rangers Battle for the Grid is a Morphin’ Good Time

    The Power Rangers Battle for the Grid DLC packs showed up on Steam today. I remembered I have been eager and hopeful about the core game which is available on Xbox Game Pass, and I knew what I had to do, review the core game! Whatever your cultural disposition, I suspect it’s probably not hard to be aware of the Power Rangers–whatever your impression of them may be. For me, it was a…

    Planet Zoo Remains A Suprisingly Pleasant Favorite

    Planet Zoo is a zoo simulator. You can play in either career, challenge, or sandbox mode. A lot of it can be played online, but it’s not necessary. I played for a couple of hours in career mode. It’s one of the few times where I’ve played a game tutorial and felt like I was doing some positive with my time by learning to play a game. That’s just the way this game…

    Yoshi’s Crafted World is A Beautiful Cardboard Dream

    I had to remember how to play this game, but once I did I remembered how carefree it is to play this game, a nice array of forgiving obstacles and high attention to detail in its very particular artistic style. I meant to write something about it a while ago, but I kept overthinking it. Today I have some videos, screenshots, and seasoned thoughts on Yoshi’s Crafted World. What is Yoshi’s Crafted World?…

    LEGO Marvel Super Heroes 2 is Pretty Solid, And There Are Cheat Codes

    The subtitle “It’s All Here” says it all. I’ve tried a few Marvel games over the years, and I’ve seen a good handful of the movies. Never really delved into the comics, but I feel they are well represented in LEGO Marvel Super Heroes 2. I went into this game thinking maybe it’d be isolated to Avengers characters without much divergence. There are PLENTY of Marvel Heroes in this game though, and you’ll…

    Everybody Really Needs to Play The Sims At Some Point

    The Sims is a wonderful game, even for its relaxing gameplay qualities. I’ve been a casual player of The Sims for decades. I even tried out the cloud gaming version on my Xbox recently and was amazed by its nuances. When I was about midway through The Sims 3 seasons I wondered if this game needed to go further than it already had. But it has, and gamers love it! Background: The Sims…

    Super Mario 3D All-Stars is The Ultimate Mario Game (And You Can’t Have It)

    This is my best–and one and only–article about Super Mario. Indie games, step aside for a moment. Super Mario 3D All-Stars for all parties interested, is a special release from Nintendo this year for the Switch which contains three classic Mario games spruced up for HD and available for a limited time offer in physical as well as digital form. They’re serious about the limited time too, which has some scratching their heads…

    Taking Another Look at the Harry Potter LEGO Video Games

    Welcome to Hogwarts! Okay, it usually takes a chapter to get there in the books, but the welcome is there. I’m about to tell you about one of the most fan-driven franchises you’ve ever heard of, “Harry Potter!” Oh, you’ve heard of that one…? Okay… Have you ever heard of “LEGO!” That one too? Okay, GOOD!? It’s time for my LEGO Harry Potter poetic ode. I’m not totally certain when it started, but…

    Animal Crossing: New Horizons is Still One of Nintendo’s Top Games (For a Reason)

    Animal Crossing: New Horizons is essentially the original reason I now have a Nintendo Switch. There are so many good games for Switch that are perfectly mindful and low-stress, but the media circling around how wonderful this game actually did sell me in a moment of post-materialistic rebellion that I actually don’t really regret. This game took me to a new realm of peaceful gameplaying. Okay, I Have Animal Crossing, Now What? Humble…
