Standard Review: Penny’s Big Breakaway (PC)

Penny’s Big Breakaway is the first game to come to us from Evening Star, a team created by the developers of Sonic Mania. Despite the success of the team’s previous works, Penny’s Big Breakaway did not perform well financially, and the team had to cut its staff. While we don’t know for sure why Penny’s …

Quick Review: The Citadel (PC)

CW: Gore If one were to tell my younger self that I’d be getting into FPS titles as an adult, they’d probably assume that they were in the bad timeline. And they’d be right, but not for the reason they think. There was a simple reason for this; when I thought of FPS games, I …

A Tale of Cutthroat Lovers (PC): A Love Hate Relationship (Detailed Review) (NSFL)

New review is up on Fuwanovel, and it’s of a VN from the same team as Euphoria and Maggot Baits! This review has been in the works for a while, and it’s finally out! https://fuwanovel.moe/2025/08/review-the-restless-sheep-the-lone-wolf-a-tale-of-cutthroat-lovers It goes without saying that the new “NSFW reviews are Fanbox exclusive” rule does not apply to games I get …

Standard Review: Wario World (GC)

Wario World is a weird game. It is thus far the first and only 3D installment in the Wario Land series. To be technical, I don’t know if it’s officially part of the series, but it shares all of the usual staples, such as the focus on finding treasures and the multiple endings based on …

Donkey Kong 64 (N64): Rareware’s Messy Experiment (Detailed Review)

Considering my love of 3D platformers and collectathons, it was inevitable that I would check Donkey Kong 64 out at some point. While Donkey Kong Bananza is set for release next month for the Switch 2, I felt now would be a good time to finally check out Nintendo’s previous 3D outing for our favorite …

Dragon Fantasy: The Black Tome of Ice (PS3/PS4/Vita/3DS/WiiU/PC): An Endearing, Yet Flawed Tribute (Detailed Review)

While I was playing through Dragon Fantasy: The Black Tome of Ice and thinking about what I would say for the review, I found myself thinking about a certain subject that has come up in a lot of previous reviews. That subject is whether to rate the game based on only the “objective” elements I …

Rhapsody II: Ballad of the Little Princess (PS1/PC/PS5/Switch): A Harmonious Return (Detailed Review)

Here’s another game from the “I took too long to get to this” list! Yes, I know, I say that a lot… not the part about the list I mean. Point is, I meant to review Rhapsody II a lot earlier, and then a bunch of shit happened, and then I played a whole bunch …

Standard Review: Hand of the Goddess (PC)

Well then, this game certainly came completely out of left field. There have been quite a few times where the games that shake me to my core are the last that I expect. When it comes to indie gaming, there will be plenty of cases of dark, horror masterpieces like Mouthwashing or MyHouse.wad getting the …

DepraviA (PC): A Sadist’s Twisted Paradise (Detailed Review) (NSFL)

CW: Discussions, mentions, and visuals of violence, rape, pedophilia, dismemberment, vore, and unbirthing. This game is fucked up. Consider pledging to my fanbox if you want to see more reviews of NSFW games like this. Oh, you thought I was only posting one Halloween review? Just because it’s no longer October, doesn’t mean I can’t …

Fangame Review: (Mario) The Music Box Remastered

I was supposed to write my review of (Mario) The Music Box Remastered at least two years ago. I’m now in the sort of yucky period of my career where I need to coax myself back intro writing after continuous, traumatic events and several months dealing with severe PTSD because sitting there being traumatized doesn’t …
