Dragon Castle Review
Another week down, and I don’t know where it went. One thing that I did enjoy was trying out Dragon Castle during the week thanks to a Steam sale. A great game for a fun conversation and hidden depths, the Mahjong Solitaire inspired Dragon Castle is a game that can be easily overlooked. It’s a pity, because I think a lot of players that would pass on it would find a very entertaining title.
Have a great weekend everyone!
Animal Crossing: New Horizons Review
So as you would have seen in Last Week’s Gaming, I have been hitting the old Animal Crossing: New Horizons. First as a diversion, but the lure has definitely worked. The relaxing cutesy life simulator is everything I thought of the series, and more. Tom Nook is definitely a master manipulator
Have a great weekend everyone
Billionaire Banshee Review
There are games that are fun to just sit and play. Sometimes they are innocent fun, sometimes the subject matter can get downright adult. Billionaire Banshee dips it’s toes in the latter, but is still a great game if you want to quickly break the ice with new players.
Once all this is over, we might need a few icebreaker games to get to know people again!
Boom, Bang, Gold! Review
Sometimes you just want a fun game that doesn’t take much brain power. These games should be quick and fun, but can also add twists that keep things interesting.
Boom, Bang, Gold! Delivers on this in spades. While not a game I would build a collection around, it is a versatile solution to many existing libraries.
Hattari / Yabunonaka Review – or In A Grove in English
I still carry around of quick and portable games in my bags. You never know when you have a bit of downtime with strangers to fill out. In A Grove is a great game from Oink Games that ticks all these boxes, but it’s not quite for everyone.
Resident Evil 3 Review – Seeing S.T.A.R.S.
Many people have voiced Resident Evil 3 is great, but flawed. Too short, Mr X was better, missing sections from the original – take your pick.
I am really enjoying Resident Evil 3. It’s gorgeous, the pacing is great, and streamlining the puzzles makes for a great introduction to new players.
But there is more to the game than the headlines would have you believe.
Control Review
Control is a game that has gotten a lot of hype. Some for the use of Ray Tracing with Nvidia RTX cards, some for the weird story, and some for the frame rate issues on consoles. A lot of the time, this makes Control look like it’s only for certain people.
Well, let me tell you why Control is just an absolute blast to play.
Have a great weekend everyone!
Final Fantasy 7 First Impressions and Thoughts
Final Fantasy VII and Metal Gear Solid were my PlayStation games. Sure I had fun with other series, but these two games defined what Video Games were for me from then on. And today, Final Fantasy VII Remake has officially launched.
