Game Review – Ys VIII: Lacrimosa of Dana (Nintendo Switch)

Short Version: It’s awesome and you should all get it. It’s a fun island-exploration adventure with very memorable characters, but then it takes some great twists that essentially turns it into Your Name with monster fighting.

Game Review – The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky the 3rd

Short Version: This game is incredible. I absolutely loved playing it. As a fan of the previous Trails in the Sky games, this feels like more of that, but taking it to a completely unexpected direction that sets it apart from its predecessors. You don’t even have to know all...

Game Review – The Silver Case

Short Version: It’s pretty fun and engaging! It’s the typical Suda 51 weirdness that people have come to expect, but in an engaging police drama format. It may be a visual novel, but it does so many different things differently than all the others that you are guaranteed to have...

Game Review – Berserk and the Band of the Hawk

NOTE: This is a review of the PS Vita version, which holds many visual and technical differences from the console and PC versions. Short Version: It’s pretty average.

Game Review – Hatsune Miku: Project Diva X

Short Version: It is the weakest Miku game of all the recent console releases, but it’s still pretty good if all you are looking for is some good songs to play through. Graphically, the game looks and sounds beautiful, but everything surrounding that is a variety of strange decisions and...
