Toy Fair 2019 came and went like a colorful, engaging parade and my fellow Megan and I found ourselves most fascinated by Launch Pad exhibitors, up and coming inventors with interesting new toy and game concepts. One of our favorite experiences was our discussion with Brett Fodor, co-creator of Dino Duel, a card game about […]
REVIEW: Daemon X Machina Demo – A Preview of Techno Mech Madness
Being a fan of Gundam Wing, storytelling, and abundant customisation, it’s no surprise the new Nintendo Switch demo for Daemon X Machina caught my attention. What really pulled me in initially was the kickass art and sound design, which it turns out, comes from a collaboration of some seasoned veterans: Producer Kenichiro Tsukada, known for the Armored […]

What starts as a simple fantasy premise unfolds into something much more… what it means to be self-aware; to be alive. WARNING: This review contains spoilers for Self–Made issues 1-3.

I’ve found it to be engaging in a peculiar way… To summarize, an underground outlaw group of “Augmented” (people who chose to integrate their bodies with technology) begins […]
REVIEW: Stardew Valley on Nintendo Switch (Uh-Oh, I’m Addicted)
Stardew Valley is always something I just heard about. Something the adorable Commander Holly (Holly Conrad) played, a bright colorful 8-bit game that takes Harvest Moon and adds combat, a game my friend found a mod for where all the characters are naked? You get it, the game just existed, as you and I do. […]
Editorial: “You Don’t Want What You Want” Say Gaming Execs
The 2018 game of the year was a single-player story-driven game with a largely linear base as opposed to sandbox. God of War (though continuing the frustrating trend of bearing the exact same name as its predecessor) contained elements that triple A publishers were trying to convince the gaming community at large (and investors) that no […]
