I like to work on art and writing and was inspired by video games and movies and other such things. I love when I find creative stories and characters, and I try to make my own. So far, I've been unsuccessful, but I'm trying.
Mamma Mia! The Super Mario Bros Movie Was Amazing!
Although I didn’t see it in theaters, the Duck recently got to see The Super Mario Bros Movie on Amazon! Buying recent releases without having seen them prior has, admittedly, backfired more times than not (I’m looking at you, Wreck-It-Ralph 2), but I had been hearing great things about Mario’s first animated movie (I’m aware…

The Duck’s First Week with Tears of the Kingdom
Well, The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom was released just over a week ago. While I’m usually behind most people when it comes to playing new games, you’ll typically find me at the game store on the release date of any new entry into the Zelda franchise. I’ve now been playing this game…

Clubhouse Games: 51 Worldwide Classics: Demo Review
Considering Mother Duck and I have accumulated a small collection of physical games to play in recent months, I thought it would also be fun to try out a digital collection of physical games called Clubhouse Games: 51 Worldwide Classics for the Switch. While the full game has, well, 51 games, the demo contains four,…

Aspire: Ina’s Tale Could Have Been So Much More
Aspire: Ina’s Tale is a short and simple puzzle game about a girl who must escape from the Tower. Along the way, you gain several “spirits” that allow you to solve puzzles.

Hunting Down Missing Strawberries in Celeste
A couple years ago, I wrote a review about my experiences with Celeste, a super difficult game about climbing a mountain. The game was amazing, don’t get me wrong, but it was also quite a trial. And while I did manage to complete the main game (chapters 1-7), there’s a whole lot that I didn’t…
